Johann Zarco has become a first-time MotoGP race winner after a last-lap overtake on team-mate Jorge Martin at Phillip Island.
One of only three riders using a soft rear tyre, Jorge Martin made the perfect start from pole as he led into turn one from Brad Binder.
At the front, Martin was continuing to show no signs of slowing down as his lead grew to over two seconds with 10 laps gone. Di Giannantonio then made another brilliant overtake as he came through on Binder with nine laps to go.
