The Assen track is normally a difficult one for Marc Márquez (Ducati), but he managed to win both the Sprint and the Sunday race this weekend, nonetheless. He did not do so from pole position, however, as Yamaha’s Fabio Quartararo took that honor.
Saturday’s Sprint race saw Marquez followed home by his brother Alex (Ducati) in second place and Marco Bezzecchi (Aprilia) in third.
Sunday’s main event saw Marc Márquez take the lead early as Bezzecchi worked his way through the other leaders to reach second position, where he followed Marc closely for the remainder of the race without ever finding an opportunity to pass him. Finishing third on Sunday behind Bezzecchi was Pecco Bagnaia (Ducati).
During a hard-fought battle with Pedro Acosta (KTM), Alex Marquez crashed hard in Sunday’s race, breaking, as we currently understand it, a finger on his left hand.
