THE FINAL 5 MINUTES FROM Q2 IN DOHA
Rookie Jorge Martin (Pramac Racing) stole the headlines on Saturday after securing a sensational maiden MotoGP™ pole position. Many thought the Spaniard would slip back down the order in Sunday’s race, with the more experienced guard right behind Martin on the grid – but how wrong would that prove to be.
Martin got a wonderful start and led for the majority of the race. It wasn’t until Fabio Quartararo (Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP) passed Martin with five laps to go where a change of the lead occurred. Quartararo eventually made his race-winning pass stick with four laps left, as Johann Zarco nabbed second off Pramac Racing teammate Martin on the final lap. It was yet another spellbinding MotoGP™ battle.
