A clever Quartararo wins the Doha MotoGP in Qatar from the Pramac Ducatis of Zarco and rookie Martin, who led most of the race from pole position and claimed a debut rostrum.

Mir and Miller clashed twice in the race, the Suzuki rider bumping the Ducati wide then Miller looking over out of the final corner and shoulder barging the reigning world champion.

The top 15 were covered by 8.9s!

All riders chose the soft rear tyre, but the four KTM riders opted for the medium rather than soft front tyre.

The Doha Grand Prix was the second of two back-to-back opening rounds held at Losail. Bradl was again replacing the injured Marc Marquez, who will undergo the next medical check on his arm ahead of round 3 in Portimao on April 16-18.
