MotoGP German Grand Prix - Start time, how to watch & more

Johann Zarco starts the German Grand Prix on pole position on the Pramac Ducati. Here's how you can watch the Sachsenring MotoGP race in your country.

Zarco ended Fabio Quartararo's pole streak in the eight round of the 2021 MotoGP season, beating the Yamaha rider by just 0.011s in a tightly-contested qualifying.

Aleix Espargaro secured Aprilia's first front row start of the modern era, while Honda rider Marc Marquez - unbeaten at the German venue in all classes since 2010 - qualified a disappointed fifth behind the lead factory Ducati of Jack Miller.

Francesco Bagnaia was only 10th fastest.
