DOHA – Italy’s Andrea Dovizioso won the season-opening Qatar MotoGP for the second year running on Sunday, holding off a desperate challenge from world champion Marc Marquez to take first place.
The Italian had come into the Doha race concerned about the speed of his bike but had been able to start in second place on the grid following qualification. The Spaniard, who started third on the grid, pounced on the tenth corner of the final lap to take the lead, albeit briefly before Dovizioso immediately took back the advantage.Spain’s Alex Rins finished fourth on a Suzuki, with legendary Italian Valentino Rossi, on a Yamaha, in fifth.French rookie Fabio Quartararo, another Yamaha rider, finished in 16th place despite starting in fifth on the grid after being forced to start the race from the pit lane after his bike stalled in the warm-up lap.
Dovi is always good at the beginning
