Jorge Martin edged a thrilling duel with MotoGP champion Francesco Bagnaia to win Sunday’s German Grand Prix.
The Spaniard held off Ducati’s Italian rider over the last 10 laps to cut his championship lead to 16 points.
Their bikes touched two laps from the chequered flag before the Pramac Racing rider crossed the line just 0.064 of a second ahead of Bagnaia.
It was Martin’s first grand prix win since August 2021, with French team-mate Johann Zarco finishing third. That made it a weekend double for Martin having won the Saturday sprint at the Sachsenring circuit.
It was another disapointing weekend for Honda & Marc Marquez who had to withdraw in Sunday’s MotoGP German Grand Prix having crashed five times this weekend at the Sachsenring.
The Honda rider endured a bruising weekend at the German GP, crashing five times – the latest of which in the morning warm-up left him with a fracture in his hand.
