2023 MotoGP Americas Grand Prix – How to watch, session times & more
MotoGP travels to the Circuit of the Americas in Austin this weekend for the third round of the 2023 season. Here's the full schedule for the 2023 Americas Grand Prix.
Marc Marquez is often referred to as the 'king of COTA', having won at Austin a record seven times since the circuit's debut on the MotoGP calendar in 2013. But Honda's star rider will miss this weekend's race after injuring his hand in a crash at Portimao last month.
Marquez's absence could blow the race wide open, although Ducati must be considered the favourite on the back of the Italian marque's victories in the opening two rounds of 2023 in Portugal and Argentina.
