That means two fewer days of potential track time for the rookies ahead of the opening MotoGP race.<\/p>\n<p>The other main change is that the final test at Buriram, scene of the season opener on 5-7 March, will be held much earlier than before.<\/p>\n<figure> <source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.crash.net\/sites\/default\/files\/2026-09\/gng_1292928_hires_1600x900.jpg?width=1920&amp;format=webp 1920w,https:\/\/www.crash.net\/sites\/default\/files\/2026-09\/gng_1292928_hires_1600x900.jpg?width=1800&amp;format=webp 1800w,https:\/\/www.crash.net\/sites\/default\/files\/2026-09\/gng_1292928_hires_1600x900.jpg?width=1600&amp;format=webp 1600w,https:\/\/www.crash.net\/sites\/default\/files\/2026-09\/gng_1292928_hires_1600x900.jpg?width=1500&amp;format=webp 1500w,https:\/\/www.crash.net\/sites\/default\/files\/2026-09\/gng_1292928_hires_1600x900.jpg?width=1200&amp;format=webp 1200w,https:\/\/www.crash.net\/sites\/default\/files\/2026-09\/gng_1292928_hires_1600x900.jpg?width=900&amp;format=webp 900w,https:\/\/www.crash.net\/sites\/default\/files\/2026-09\/gng_1292928_hires_1600x900.jpg?width=800&amp;format=webp 800w,https:\/\/www.crash.net\/sites\/default\/files\/2026-09\/gng_1292928_hires_1600x900.jpg?width=600&amp;format=webp 600w,https:\/\/www.crash.net\/sites\/default\/files\/2026-09\/gng_1292928_hires_1600x900.jpg?width=400&amp;format=webp 400w\" sizes=\"(min-width:1024px) 710px, (min-width:768px) 62vw, 97vw\" type=\"image\/webp\" \/><figcaption>\n<div>Toprak Razgatlioglu, 2026 Buriram test.<\/div>\n<div class=\"source\"> \u00a9\u00a0Gold and Goose<\/div>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<aside>\n<div class=\"block\">\n<div class=\"mpu-block\">\n<div class=\"mpu-title\"><span>Article continues below<\/span><span>ADVERTISEMENT<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<aside>\n<div class=\"block\">\n<div class=\"mpu-block\">\n<div class=\"mpu-title\"><span>Article continues below<\/span><span>ADVERTISEMENT<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<p>Rather than taking place in the run-up to the race weekend, the Thai test will instead be held one month earlier, on 6-7 February.<\/p>\n<p>It is thought the MotoGP manufacturers requested the earlier final test to allow more time for machine modifications ahead of the opening race.<\/p>\n<p>Engine homologation and initial aero packages will again be frozen at round one.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>However, with all manufacturers starting the 850cc era in the same B concession ranking, Yamaha and Honda &#8211;

That means two fewer days of potential track time for the rookies ahead of the opening MotoGP race.<\/p>\n<p>The other main change is that the final test at Buriram, scene of the season opener on 5-7 March, will be held much earlier than before.<\/p>\n<figure> <source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.crash.net\/sites\/default\/files\/2026-09\/gng_1292928_hires_1600x900.jpg?width=1920&amp;format=webp 1920w,https:\/\/www.crash.net\/sites\/default\/files\/2026-09\/gng_1292928_hires_1600x900.jpg?width=1800&amp;format=webp 1800w,https:\/\/www.crash.net\/sites\/default\/files\/2026-09\/gng_1292928_hires_1600x900.jpg?width=1600&amp;format=webp 1600w,https:\/\/www.crash.net\/sites\/default\/files\/2026-09\/gng_1292928_hires_1600x900.jpg?width=1500&amp;format=webp 1500w,https:\/\/www.crash.net\/sites\/default\/files\/2026-09\/gng_1292928_hires_1600x900.jpg?width=1200&amp;format=webp 1200w,https:\/\/www.crash.net\/sites\/default\/files\/2026-09\/gng_1292928_hires_1600x900.jpg?width=900&amp;format=webp 900w,https:\/\/www.crash.net\/sites\/default\/files\/2026-09\/gng_1292928_hires_1600x900.jpg?width=800&amp;format=webp 800w,https:\/\/www.crash.net\/sites\/default\/files\/2026-09\/gng_1292928_hires_1600x900.jpg?width=600&amp;format=webp 600w,https:\/\/www.crash.net\/sites\/default\/files\/2026-09\/gng_1292928_hires_1600x900.jpg?width=400&amp;format=webp 400w\" sizes=\"(min-width:1024px) 710px, (min-width:768px) 62vw, 97vw\" type=\"image\/webp\" \/><figcaption>\n<div>Toprak Razgatlioglu, 2026 Buriram test.<\/div>\n<div class=\"source\"> \u00a9\u00a0Gold and Goose<\/div>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<aside>\n<div class=\"block\">\n<div class=\"mpu-block\">\n<div class=\"mpu-title\"><span>Article continues below<\/span><span>ADVERTISEMENT<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<aside>\n<div class=\"block\">\n<div class=\"mpu-block\">\n<div class=\"mpu-title\"><span>Article continues below<\/span><span>ADVERTISEMENT<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<p>Rather than taking place in the run-up to the race weekend, the Thai test will instead be held one month earlier, on 6-7 February.<\/p>\n<p>It is thought the MotoGP manufacturers requested the earlier final test to allow more time for machine modifications ahead of the opening race.<\/p>\n<p>Engine homologation and initial aero packages will again be frozen at round one.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>However, with all manufacturers starting the 850cc era in the same B concession ranking, Yamaha and Honda &#8211;
