Marquez Masters MotoGP Aragon Grand Prix in Triumphant Return as Bagnaia’s Title Hopes Slide in Dramatic Clash

At the MotoGP Aragon Grand Prix, Marc Marquez showcased a commanding performance, leading from start to finish, while Pecco Bagnaia's race ended in a collision with Alex Marquez.

At the Aragon Grand Prix for MotoGP, Marc Marquez claimed his first Grand Prix win in more than 1,000 days, achieving it in a commanding manner.

Dominating from start to finish, Marquez showcased remarkable speed and ultimately secured the victory, finishing nearly five seconds ahead of Jorge Martin.

Martin increased his lead in the championship to 23 points by finishing second, following Francesco Bagnaia's crash after colliding with Alex Marquez, who also fell during the incident.

Bagnaia was steadily moving up the ranks, having once more experienced his rear tyre losing traction from the less clean part of the starting grid. He found himself in seventh position initially, moving up to sixth following Miguel Oliveira's crash, then to fifth as Franco Morbidelli veered off course, and eventually securing fourth place after pressuring Pedro Acosta into an error at the 16th turn.

After several laps, an attempt was made to overtake Marques, who veered off course at turn 12, giving Bagnaia the opportunity to move in front entering turn 13. However, as Bagnaia was making his move at turn 13, he collided with Marquez, resulting in both riders crashing.

Following the race, Bagnaia was taken to the medical center, though there has been no news released regarding his state of health.

The collision between them elevated Pedro Acosta to the third position, though he was nearly 15 seconds away from the first-place finisher.

Brad Binder secured the fourth position, while Enea Bastianini climbed to fifth place from a 14th-place start. Franco Morbidelli finished in sixth, followed by Fabio Di Giannantonio, Marco Bezzecchi, Alex Rins, and Jack Miller, who completed the top 10.

Fabio Quartararo experienced a crash, and Maverick Vinales withdrew from the race as well.

Investigations were initiated after the race concerning Fabio Di Giannantonio, Jack Miller, and Raul Fernandez due to issues with the pressure in their front tyres.
