MALAYSIAN MOTOGP GRAND PRIX: HOW TO WATCH AND WEEKEND SCHEDULE

The 2026 Malaysian Grand Prix at Sepang runs from Friday, October 30, to Sunday, November 1, with sessions scheduled in Central European Time. German viewers will not be able to watch this round live on the country’s free-to-air MotoGP coverage: Malaysia is not among the 12 selected premier-class events DF1 will show live in 2026. The remaining meetings will receive highlights. The selected live events will also be available digitally through ServusTV On and Red Bull TV. Sky Sport and motogp.com carry all 22 rounds, but both services require payment. ServusTV ended its linear broadcasts in Germany at the turn of 2023–24 and now works with DF1; selected MotoGP races are due to move to RTL’s free-to-air schedule from 2027.

Austrian fans can watch free coverage on ServusTV’s television and digital platforms, including Red Bull TV. On Saturday, the channel’s live schedule begins with MotoGP qualifying at 3:40 a.m., followed from 5:40 a.m. by the Moto3 and Moto2 qualifying sessions and the MotoGP Sprint.
