Jorge Martin (Ducati) completed another perfect weekend in Japan with pole position, including a new lap record, and wins in both the Sprint on Saturday and the main GP on Sunday. Saturday’s Sprint saw Brad Binder (KTM) come home second and Pecco Bagnaia (Ducati) third.
While Saturday’s Sprint was dry, Sunday’s main event saw extremely wet conditions that ultimately led to a red flag stopping the race after 12 laps. The riders earned full points for their efforts, however.
Martin was again victorious with Bagnaia finishing second and Marc Marquez (Honda) finishing in third place during the torrential downpour. This may have been the last time Marquez visits Honda’s home track as a Repsol rider.
Martin has closed to within three points of Bagnaia’s championship lead with several races still remaining. The riders’ next race at the Mandalika Circuit in Indonesia two weeks from now.
