As it happened: Francesco Bagnaia wins the Austrian MotoGP!

Enea Bastianini will start the Austrian MotoGP from pole position, his first in the premier class, after getting the better of Francesco Bagnaia.

Jack Miller rounds out an all-Ducati front row ahead of Jorge Martin, reigning world champion Fabio Quartararo and a fifth Ducati of Johann Zarco. 

Two big announcements have been made over the course of the weekend, the first of which saw KTM confirm GASGAS as the replacement name for its current Tech 3 team. 

As part of the 2023 GASGAS Factory Racing Team, KTM also announced a return to the Austrian brand for Pol Espargaro - the other GASGAS seat remains unconfirmed.

The other announcement saw MotoGP confirm sprint races at every round next season.
