- Honda’s Marc Marquez took another significant stride towards his sixth MotoGP title by seizing victory in a last-lap duel at the San Marino Grand Prix on Sunday after missing out in his previous two races.

The Spaniard went 93 points clear at the top of the standings with six races remaining after denying French Petronas Yamaha rookie Fabio Quartararo a first top-flight victory at Misano’s Marco Simoncelli circuit.Marquez’s closest rival Andrea Dovizioso, on a Ducati, was sixth on home territory. Quartararo had lined up third on the grid, with Marquez fifth, but the race became a battle between the two with the Frenchman leading from lap three of 27 and soaking up the pressure before the champion swept past.“I knew that it wasn’t necessary to win, because I saw that Rins was out and Dovi far ,” said the jubilant winner, who celebrated wildly with his team after parking his bike at the finish.“I just tried to stay there ...and then I said I will try on the last lap.

The incident wrecked both of their laps, at a circuit where the overwhelming majority of the crowd were supporting the Italian great who grew up nearby. They were summoned to see stewards, who decided to take no further action.
