Dramatic race sees Marquez dominate from Bagnaia as Martin blundered
Marc Marquez dominated a dramatic MotoGP San Marino Grand Prix from Francesco Bagnaia , as a strategic blunder from Jorge Martin saw him finish a lap down in 15th.
With the rain staying away, Martin was forced to box for a second time on lap nine and would rejoin a lapped 15th. Ducati’s Bagnaia made amends for the poor start that lost him Saturday’s sprint by leading into Turn 1 on the opening lap ahead of Pramac duo Franco Morbidelli and Martin.But after two laps, Bagnaia was half a second clear and Martin was falling into the clutches of Morbidelli - who resisted early pressure from Tech3’s Pedro Acosta.
Marquez would never cede the lead, resisting pressure from Bagnaia before eventually breaking the reigning world champion in the latter stages. Binder took fourth in the later laps, with Marco Bezzecchi fifth on his VR46 Ducati ahead of Alex Marquez , Fabio Quartararo , Fabio Di Giannantonio and KTM wildcard Pol Espargaro.
