Top 3 Tissot Sprint Moments 👊 | 2026 Czech Grand Prix

Lights out and we're racing in the sprint here in Brno. Pekka Bagnai has made a sensational start from third place on the grid. Agoura's going the wrong way. Bagnai surely will have the whole shot. Marrera, aggressive on the inside of Beccechi into the first corner as well. Marrera's going to be third as he's going through that first corner. He leans on Fabio, the Gian Antonio, on the inside. But a dream launch for Pekka Bagnai. He leads here in Brno. Pekka Bagnai, the experienced head with two young chargers, Agoura and Marrera right behind him. Sorry, we've got crashes there. Well, we've got to, it's that, it's Maverick Vinales taking a tumble at turn 12 as he was trying to get the power on going up through horsepower here. He was in the gravel with somebody else as well. It was Marrera, wasn't it? Marrera's gone missing out of third place. Diogo Marrera is indeed out. He was out of picture. He was just chasing. He was just lining up a move on Agoura. And Marrera's crashed out of third place. Early drama, early heartache then for Diogo Marrera, who was inside of that top three. A rather frustrating trudge away for Marrera. So too for Maverick Vinales. Now you'll see it from the overhead shot. Third bike in your picture. Look, he's just trying to line up Agoura for a move, and the front end tucks midway through. And Maverick Vinales is just going to appear into picture and have his own accident. Somebody's gone down at turn 11. Who's gone down? Oh, it's Pedro Acosta. Pedro Acosta's had a pretty miserable weekend so far. He got a little bit further around on this lap. But look at that front washing out. Was he just maybe a little bit wide? A little bit offline. Barrel rolling through the gravel trap, though, goes Acosta. Who's gone down at turn three? Yeah, we heard it now. It's Marco Bersseke. It's Marco Bersseke, then the world championship leader for the fourth time in our first nine sprints of 2026. He's not going to see the chequered flag. He crashed out of the lead in Burram. He crashed out in Austin. He crashed out in Jerez. And now Marco Bersseke has blown it once again on sprint Saturdays. Yeah, and with Jorge Martín now up into fifth place, he suddenly pulls five points back on him, which Martín might think will already mitigate the points he may lose tomorrow with the double long lap penalty. Another unforced error for the world championship leader. Perfect, perfect drive up Horsepower Hill out of turn 11 for Pekka Banyai. He will hear the track outs are pulling behind him. But Ayaguirre is going to have to give this one up. He is nowhere near close enough. If Pekka Banyai nails this final two corners, he's going to nail his first sprint win since the Malaysian Grand Prix. A golden eye has to settle for silver, but the gold medal goes to Pekka Banyai. What a ride! He led that Tissot sprint from start to finish. What a decision. What a tactical masterstroke he was by both factory Ducati's to run that Michelin soft rear tyre. Banyai takes the Czech flag. Being waved by Sir Mark Cavendish. Tour de France led you by... As Czech president Petr Pavel presents the gold. The golden performance from Pekka Banyai today. Mistake free. It was perfect from Pekka today in the Bruno sprint.
