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

At the Aragon Grand Prix for MotoGP, Marc Marquez secured his initial Grand Prix win in more than 1,000 days, achieving it through a commanding performance.

Dominating from start to finish, Marquez showcased outstanding speed and ultimately secured 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 rapid progress through the pack, having initially lost traction with his rear tyre from the less clean part of the starting grid. He found himself in seventh position at the outset, moved up to sixth following Miguel Oliveira's crash, advanced to fifth as Franco Morbidelli went off track, and then climbed to fourth after pressuring Pedro Acosta into an error at the 16th turn.

After completing several circuits, an attempt was made to overtake Marques, who veered off course at the 12th turn, providing Bagnaia with an opportunity to pass him entering the 13th turn. However, as Bagnaia was navigating the 13th turn, he collided with Marquez, resulting in both of them crashing.

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

The collision moved Pedro Acosta up to third place, though he finished nearly 15 seconds after the race leader.

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