2026 MotoGP Launch Dates: When Each Team Will Reveal Its New Bike
The 2026 MotoGP season is almost here. Explore the full list of 2026 MotoGP launch dates and bike reveals for every team.
Yamaha will kick off its 2026 MotoGP campaign with a season launch in Jakarta, Indonesia, scheduled for mid-January.
The factory team will unveil its new bike on January 21 during the Yamaha Indonesia Motor Manufacturing Dealer Meeting, a significant moment for the brand as it prepares to race a V4-powered bike for the first time in the modern era after ending its long-running inline-four programme.
The year ahead carries quite substantial weight for Yamaha as it works to bring the MotoGP project back to former glory, and prepare the V4 for MotoGP’s 2027 regulation change to 850cc.
Fabio Quartararo, who stood out during the 2025 season with several podium finishes and a top-10 championship result, will attend the Jakarta event alongside teammate Alex Rins to reveal the 2026 livery.
