Joan Mir salvages 15th while new Repsol Honda team-mate Luca Marini is left 21st and last in the Qatar Sprint.

Starting 17th, Mir was hampered by a technical issue for the opening five laps, causing a lack of engine performance and leaving the Spaniard to wonder if he would even finish the race.

“In the last part of the race we were able to run in the 53 lows and I was catching the second group, which was quite good. I was able to overtake, and I finished the race with a good feeling,” said Mir. Mir finished 14s behind race winner Jorge Martin but within 1.5s of KTM’s Jack Miller in tenth. The top Yamaha was Fabio Quartararo, in 12th and 1.2s ahead of Mir.Meanwhile, on the other side of the Repsol garage, it was a 'character building' race debut for Marini, who qualified ahead of only Franco Morbidelli and then finished 21st and last.
