Why It Matters
Marc Márquez arrives at the Qatar GP with the mathematical opportunity to secure his tenth world title if he wins the race and Jorge Martín does not score.
Good afternoon! Welcome to the live broadcast of the MotoGP race of the Qatar GP in which Marc Márquez could become champion. Here we will tell you the minute by minute of the race. Don't miss it!
The incident of the weekend: The fall of Marco Bezzecchi, after trying to pass Márquez on the inside and both of them touching, which ended with the Italian on the ground, was the most talked about incident of the entire weekend. "If you see the images from the helicopter, in all the laps of the curve I do exactly the same line and for me, in a very different curve, it was a very similar incident to the one in Indonesia last year," said the '93' after the sprint.
Today there could be a champion: Marc Márquez has in Qatar his first mathematical opportunity to win his tenth world title, although the Ducati rider was pessimistic this Saturday: "Tomorrow is not the case, neither for me to win the race, nor for Martín not to score," he expressed, because from his point of view it is "a carom that I hope happens, but it doesn't happen."
We remember the starting grid: Marco Bezzecchi starts from pole, with Marc Márquez in second position. Fabi Di Giannantonio completes the podium and, behind him, Raúl Fernández, Ai Ogura and Johann Zarco. The top-10 is closed by Acosta, Aldeguer, Bastianini and Jorge Martín, who needs to score points today to prevent Márquez from becoming champion.
Formation return: We take the opportunity to remember Marc Márquez's accounts to be champion: he has to win to add 25 points and Jorge Martín does not score. In this way, to prevent the '93' from winning its tenth title, Martinator has to finish at least fifteenth, the last position that awards points.
The traffic lights go out!: Bezzecchi comes out very well. Marc slips a little, but maintains the trail, although Raúl Fernández comes strong behind him, snatching the second position: the Spaniard moves up two places, also taking advantage of the contact between Di Giannantonio, who has fallen many positions, and Ogura. And a good start from Martín, who is already eighth.
Bezzecchi and Raúl distance themselves: The Aprilias are going very fast: Bezzecchi remains the leader and Raúl Fernández sets the fastest lap. Meanwhile, Marc Márquez seems to be taking it a little more calmly and there is a bit of a gap between the two Spaniards. Behind, Jorge Martín.
Marc gives up another position!: Now it is Acosta who surpasses him. Márquez falls to fourth position, which is three tenths behind Murcia and more than two seconds behind Raúl Fernández.
