MotoGP returns for back-to-back races after a month's long summer break in 2024, and we're all set for the ninth race of the season at the Sachsenring as the German Grand Prix gets underway.
Unlike circuits like those in Spain and Italy, this isn't a home race for any of the 27 drivers, however after winning a thrilling encounter in 2023, this year's current World Championship leader Jorge Martin will certainly be treating it as such, as he looks to extend his 10-point lead at the top.
Martin was pipped to the top of the podium by defending two-time champion Francesco Bagnaia at the Dutch TT in Assen last time out, and the Spaniard will be on the hunt for only a third race win of the season — despite still leading Bagnaia in the current standings by 200 points to 190.
Ahead of the ninth race of the MotoGP season, The Sporting News has you covered with all the timings, TV and streaming details to follow if you want to keep up with all the action, as we get set for the German Grand Prix.

When is the next MotoGP race after the German Grand Prix?
MotoGP is back in full swing following the summer break, and the fact we're not even at the halfway stage of the season yet shows that's there's plenty of racing left to run and enjoy as the 2024 season really starts to hot up. Next up after Germany —it's none other than the British Grand Prix.
The seventh of 10 races in a row taking place on European soil either side of the summer break, this year's British Grand Prix from Silverstone —
the same circuit which hosts the iconic Formula One race —
has been run almost annually since 1977, aside of cancellations in 2018 and 2020 due to weather conditions and the covid-19 pandemic respectively.
Taking place on Sunday, August 4 after another, albeit shorter, few weeks' break between consecutive races, this year's British Grand Prix will mark the halfway stage of the season as race number 10 out of 20. From thereon the action is almost week-to-week, with Austria, Aragon, San Marino and more to follow in a jam-packed end to the 2024 campaign.
