Marquez Triumphs at Aragon MotoGP Amid Bagnaia Crash Drama; Extends Martin’s Lead

Marc Marquez showcased his superiority by leading from start to finish at the MotoGP Aragon Grand Prix, while Pecco Bagnaia's race ended prematurely due to a collision with Alex Marquez.

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

Dominating from start to finish, Marquez showcased outstanding speed and 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 a collision with Alex Marquez, who also fell during the incident.

Bagnaia was making impressive progress through the pack after initially losing traction on the less clean side of the starting grid. He moved up to seventh position right from the start, then climbed to sixth following Miguel Oliveira's crash, advanced to fifth after Franco Morbidelli went off course, and finally reached fourth place by pressuring Pedro Acosta into an error at turn 16.

Several circuits were completed in pursuit of Marques, who deviated from his line at the twelfth turn, providing Bagnaia the opportunity to overtake him going into the thirteenth turn. However, as Bagnaia maneuvered through turn 13, he collided with Marquez, resulting in both riders crashing.

Following the race, Bagnaia was taken to the medical center, however, there has been no further information released regarding his status.

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

Brad Binder secured the fourth spot, while Enea Bastianini made an impressive comeback to finish fifth, having begun the race in 14th position. Franco Morbidelli clinched the sixth place, followed by Fabio Di Giannantonio, Marco Bezzecchi, Alex Rins, and Jack Miller, who completed the top 10 lineup.

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

After the race, Fabio Di Giannantonio, Jack Miller, and Raul Fernandez became subjects of inquiries regarding the pressure of their front tyres.
