Jorge Martin | +300 | +250 | +350 |
Marco Bezzecchi | +600 | +550 | +600 |
Marc Marquez | +1000 | +1100 | +1050 |
Brad Binder | +1100 | +1200 | +1200 |

The 2023 MotoGP German GP Picks ponder the Sunday event for the series. After Father’s Day, a third of the 2023 season will have exhausted. It seems hard to believe but the season is speeding on by. When it comes to Sachsenring, riders know that speed is at a bit of a premium. After that straightaway into turn one, things begin to slow down with a series of “Omega Curves” from turns two through seven.
When one looks at the 13-turn curve, turns 12 and 13 offer more technical know-how as well. The 2.281-mile circuit sees the bikers negotiate a lap in around 81-84 seconds. Marc Marquez holds the course record from 2019 at a time of 81.228 seconds. Last year was the first year, the Spaniard did not win a race in Germany since 2009. He knows the course better than any MotoGP rider. Fastest lap was set by Fabio Quartararo at 81.584 seconds (lap 3).
Most on the bike get irritated by this course which seems to have more wrinkles and curves than we can count. It is why speeds are often so slow. In order to win at Sachsenring, one must be attentive at all times. Danger literally comes at every turn or Omega. The course itself claimed Francesco Bagnaia after one lapse during lap four. That ended his race as Fabio Quartararo went on to victory.
So, let’s get to some injury news and updates for the German GP? Vegas Sports Betting sees a few riders who will not be making the trip to Germany. When it comes to the MotoGP German GP Picks, a bettor likes more available early information. For the first time all season, that proved not to be as easy of a find. However, the two injured riders in question are Alex Rins and Joan Mir. Rins is the only non-Ducati to win a race.
The previews for Germany indicated the chances of an even slower Saturday Sprint and race on Sunday. Currently, the latest weather models project warm temperatures around 80 degrees or so and dry track conditions.
At Vegas Sports Betting, this seventh race of the 2023 season presents a ton of daunting challenges. These Grand Prix numbers drive even the best experts and fans crazy. It steers us more to those who have shown form and speed recently and maybe looking back at last year’s race a bit more closely. Keep in mind, Ducati was faster in qualifying last year.
Now, that is why Francesco Bagnaia has an excellent opportunity to extend his lead in the points race. Warm, dry conditions should keep him upright as long as he avoids heartbreak on the Omegas. The Italian garners our best bet for this race on Sunday.
2023 MotoGP German GP Picks ponders Jorge Martin for Sunday. It seems against the grain, but Martin has consecutive second-place finishes in better conditions. Martin arguably knows the technical sections better than most riders. Even Marc Marquez remarked that Martin has a better bike for the corners, the omegas, and going into turn one. Martin is up to third in the world championship standings and a mere 24 points away from Bagnaia.
We open the door on Martin which may mean hinting at another possibility. For now, more on the Spaniard who rides for Prima Pramac-Ducati.
Understandably, form has been on Martin’s side the past few races. While results have been a little slower in coming, the Spanish rider has a good chance of winning this race as his numbers shortened quickly over the past 36-48 hours. His volatility could be something to watch out for as some sites may pump the brakes on the chances of a Martin victory.
Again, where does a rider like Martin qualify at Sachsenring? That may be one of our only concerns for Sunday’s race. Primac was very fast last year on the German course and could be again this year.
2023 MotoGP Germany GP Picks ask do we consider Johann Zarco anyway? Duos have shown flashes of good form behind Francesco Bagnaia. Remember the KTM double podium earlier in the season. Primac-Ducati achieved the feat last week in Italy. Arguably, they may be in better position based on previous results.
Everything keeps moving on BetOnline. Zarco bounced around all over the place this week and expects to even more come the weekend. Right now, a +1800 indicates some considerable value for the Frenchman. He finished second behind Quartararo and had chances in the middle laps to make a pass before losing some late-run speed over the final miles.
The idea that Zarco keeps deferring to Marc Marquez (+1100 on BetOnline) in his picks seems to draw us closer to him. What package is Zarco using? It may be the one that garners him an upset victory on Sunday. At the very least, he is a longer shot which may be worth a look.
Let’s take on Bagnaia this Father’s Day weekend.
