The MotoGP championship series visited Thailand this weekend, and the two title contenders, Jorge Martin (Ducati) and Pecco Bagnaia (Ducati), had results that moved Bagnaia just three points closer to Martin with two rounds remaining. Martin’s points lead now stands at 17.

On Saturday, Enea Bastianini (Ducati) took a convincing win in the Sprint race ahead of Martin in second and Bagnaia in third.

Sunday’s full-length GP was run on a wet track with Martin initially taking the lead before a mistake pushed him back to third place behind Bagnaia and Marc Marquez (Ducati). Marquez eventually crashed out (unhurt), and the title contenders proceeded to finish first and second with Bagnaia leading Martin across the line. Pedro Acosta (GASGAS) finished strong to take the third spot on the podium.

Next weekend the riders compete at the Sepang circuit in the penultimate round. For full results and points for Saturday’s Sprint race, visit the MotoGP site here. For full results and points for Sunday’s MotoGP race, visit the MotoGP site here.
