Overview

• Enea Bastianini’s lap-one crash in the 12/13 chicane intensified concerns, with riders warning that falls there can send bikes and riders back onto the racing line.
• Pedro Acosta’s qualifying accident launched his KTM over the fence into a TV camera, while Moto2’s Alonso López hit a barrier at Turn 8 and later showed cuts and bruises.
• Multiple hotspots were flagged, including start congestion through Turns 1/2, high speeds at Turn 8 outpacing the gravel trap, and the tight 9/10, 12/13 and 15/16 chicanes described as really dangerous.
• Public statements and internal paddock messages call for layout changes, with several riders making a MotoGP return contingent on safety modifications.
• Organisers are exploring a mid‑term shift to the Hungaroring, with reports that Balaton Park could be a temporary option in 2026; separately, Miguel Oliveira is discussing a potential Aprilia test role as his full‑time ride winds down.
