The Australian Grand Prix ended with another win for Marc Márquez at Phillip Island, as he overtook Jorge Martín two laps from the end. The two riders were the dominant forces in a race in which Pecco Bagnaia rode with them until the middle of the contest, but was unable to maintain the pace and finished in third position.

Behind them, another great fight ended with Di Giannantonio in fourth position, Bastianini fifth, and two seconds behind them Morbidelli in sixth position and Binder in seventh. Viñales, Quartararo and Raúl Fernández completed the Top 10.

With this result, Martín gains 20 points and extends his lead over Bagnaia to 424 points, with a further 20 over Bagnaia. Three races remain this season.

New points for Luca Marini

It was not an easy race for the Repsol Honda Team riders. Luca Marini started from thirteenth position after his best qualifying showing of the season. However, he lost ground on the first few laps and had to recover positions, until he crossed the finish line in fourteenth. He earned two points as a reward for his work over the weekend.

On the other side of the Repsol Honda Team box, Joan Mir was unable to complete the race, with a crash in the final stages of the race taking him out. After qualifying in eighteenth position, Mir managed to hold on in the initial laps, but was unable to continue progressing and recover ground. Finally, two laps from the end, he went down.
