Grand Prix of Qatar won by Marc Marquez, Ducati Lenovo Team
After a frustrating crash during the COTA GP earlier this month, Marc Marquez is back again in winning form as he conquered the chequered flag during Sunday’s Grand Prix of Qatar. His teammate, Francesco Bagnaia, took 2nd place.
After a coming together with his brother Alex at turn one, Márquez battled for the win until the closing stages, when he retook the lead and pulled away for the win. Bagnaia had an excellent start from row four and went from eleventh to second in a bit more than three laps, before crossing the line in third place. He was later promoted to second following a penalty awarded to Viñales after the race.
As the fourth GP of 2025 draws to a close, Márquez now leads the championship standings with 123 points, with Bagnaia third and 26 points behind. The Ducati Lenovo Team is still atop the team standings (220 points), with Ducati leading the way in the manufacturers’ standings (148 points).
