Marco Bezzecchi has won the Qatar Grand Prix, finishing ahead of Marc Marquez in second place. The result prevented Marquez from securing what would be a record-equalling eighth MotoGP world title on Sunday.

Aprilia rider Marco Bezzecchi took victory in the Qatar Grand Prix on Sunday as motorsport made its return to the country. Ducati rider Marc Marquez finished the race in second place.

The second-place result halted the Spaniard's opportunity to secure the MotoGP world championship at the event. Marquez had been positioned to potentially claim a record-equalling eighth world title.

Following Bezzecchi's win and Marquez's runner-up finish, Marquez must now wait longer before he can attempt to clinch the championship.
