Le Mans is always a highlight on the MotoGP calendar. Over 300,000 fans walked through the gates last year to watch home hero Johann Zarco take an unlikely win for Honda in treacherous conditions.
With more rain expected this weekend, particularly on Sunday, there could be another surprise winner this time around.
The Aprilia vs Ducati battle is expected to get even more intense in the French Grand Prix, with both manufacturers set to introduce updates that they first tried at the Jerez test less than a fortnight ago.
While Marco Bezzecchi dominated the opening flyaways on the factory Aprilia, Alex Marquez's triumph in the Spanish GP seemingly put his 2026 campaign back on track.
