Thursday gets us in gear, with a parade across the island from San Remo to the track. Home hero Jack Miller (Red Bull KTM Factory Racing) will be joined by fellow MotoGP rider Joan Mir (Repsol Honda Team) as well as Australian riders Senna Agius (Liqui Moly Husqvarna Intact GP), Joel Kelso (BOE Motorsport) and Jacob Roulstone (Red Bull GASGAS Tech3), and the crew will welcome a very special guest: MotoGP Legend Mick Doohan, on the 30th anniversary of his first title. The event begins with interviews on stage at 11am before the parade starts at 11:30am, arriving to the track around midday.
Thereafter, Luca Marini (Repsol Honda Team) welcomes MotoGP podcast Last on the Brakes back into action, and then it’s time for the Press Conferences, which remain one hour later than standard.
The first is at 17:00 local time with Jorge Martin (Prima Pramac Racing) and Francesco Bagnaia (Ducati Lenovo Team), before Pedro Acosta (Red Bull GASGAS Tech3) and Johann Zarco (CASTROL Honda LCR) are joined by home hero Miller.
This weekend there’s also plenty more on the line too, with a MotoGP Teams’ Championship match point for Ducati Lenovo Team and one in the fight for the MotoGP Independent riders’ crown as Martin heads in 81 points clear of Marc Marquez (Gresini Racing MotoGP).
