Thailand MotoGP - Race Results

Marquez is an eight-time world champion after winning the 2019 MotoGP title in Sunday's Thai Grand Prix.

The Repsol Honda star, who needed to score at least two points more than Dovizioso to secure a sixth premier-class crown (with four rounds to go), stalked rookie Quartararo for much of the race.

Twice Marquez ran wide when trying to pass Quartararo into the Turn 3 hairpin, before making the same move stick on the last lap.

Thailand MotoGP - Race Results

Marquez is an eight-time world champion after winning the 2019 MotoGP title in Sunday's Thai Grand Prix.

The Repsol Honda star, who needed to score at least two points more than Dovizioso to secure a sixth premier-class crown (with four rounds to go), stalked rookie Quartararo for much of the race.

Twice Marquez ran wide when trying to pass Quartararo into the Turn 3 hairpin, before making the same move stick on the last lap.

But Quartararo wasn't finished and dived inside Marquez into the final corner - only for Marquez to repeat last year's move on Dovizioso by cutting back under the Frenchman on the exit to win by 0.171s!

Vinales completed the podium after again losing ground in the early laps.

Miller stalled on the grid and had to start from pit lane.

KTM's Espargaro was returning from a left wrist fracture at Aragon.
