MotoGP Malaysia Betting Favorites, Analysis & Prediction

With 3 races remaining in the 2023 MotoGP season, we have a championship battle on our hands, which is great for those of us who love a finish that goes down to the wire.

When: Sunday, November 12 at 1:30 pm ET
Where: Sepang International Circuit
TV / Streaming: NBC

It is a 2-horse race at this point, but those 3 riders are separated by a mere 13 points, which is nothing in the grand scheme of things. With that in mind, we will not see the championship decided this weekend in Malaysia, but it is possible that we could see a lead change or the gap at the top get just a little smaller. In short, it’s all to race for in Malaysia, but who is going to come out on top? Will the leaders continue to dominate, or will we have another racer play the role of spoiler? Let’s take a closer look.

Francesco Bagnaia

The defending MotoGP champion is still on top of the standings, but he did lose a little ground in the last race in Thailand. He finished 2nd in that one, but the rider who is trying to catch him, who we will get to in a moment, came away with the win. That aside, you cannot argue with just how good Bagnaia has been coming down the home stretch, as he has a win and a trio of 2nd place finishes over the last 4 races. There is certainly reason to believe that he can keep this hot streak alive, as he won this race in Malaysia last season in his way to the championship. A repeat of that performance would move him one step closer to a repeat.

Jorge Martin

Just when it looked as though Bagnaia was going to cruise to a second straight MotoGP World Championship, Martin found another gear. He has been strong in the second half of the season and has picked up wins in 3 of the last 6 races. Where it not for the fact that he was forced to retire in Indonesia, we might well be talking about Martin being at the top of the rider standings. It’s tough to know what to expect from him on this particular track given that he was forced to retire from the Malaysia Grand Prix last season. My guess is that he will be very much in the hunt for another win.

Marco Bezzecchi

It has not been a terrible season for Bezzecchi, who has had 3 wins to this point, but he has simply not done enough to stay in the championship race. Outside of those victories, Bezzecchi has not been on the podium enough to pick up the valuable points required to sustain a championship challenge. He does, though, have the capability to play the role of spoiler in the final 3 races of the season, as he has proven that he can win at this level. Bezzecchi ran 4th in Malaysia last season.

Brad Binder

While he has no chance of winning it all at this point, Binder will still be looking to finish strong, as he has a chance to deliver his best season to date. His 6th place overall finish last year was a career high, and it very much looks as though he will indeed beat that by a couple of places. He has not won a race this season, so if you do want to wager on him, I would be looking at a top 3 or top 5 finish. He was 8th in Malaysia last season.
