Aragon MotoGP: Grand Prix as it happened

Martin gets the move done on Acosta at turn 16, but they're two seconds behind Marquez now.

Martin tries to pass Acosta in turn eight, but runs off. Acosta keeps the position and it's cost them about a second to Marquez.

Marquez leads from Acosta and Jorge Martin. Alex Marquez is fourth, then it's Morbidelli, and Bagnaia is sixth aftr a crash for Miguel Oliveira in the final corner.

It's lights out in Aragon! Another terrible start for Bagnaia, identical to yesterday, while Marc Marquez leads from Pedro Acosta.

The warm-up lap is underway now in Aragon. Not far away from lights out now.

"The feeling is fantastic, in every condition, with new and used tyres.

"Today is the day to count. We'll see what happens...

"We are focused on the process, then the results will come, for sure."

Michele Masini on Marc Marquez

Jorge Martin had a three-point lead at the top of the MotoGP standings before today's grand prix.

Pecco Bagnaia is second, Enea Bastianini third, Marc Marquez fourth.

Pecco Bagnaia and Aleix Espargaro led the criticism yesterday of the track conditions.

Half the track was dirty, they complained, leaving 50% of riders at a disadvantage on the starting grid.

The track was cleaned today but we'll see very shortly what impact that has had.

Just over 20 minutes away from lights out in Aragon and the riders are beginning to arrive on the grid. 

We're around 30 minutes out from the start of the MotoGP Aragon Grand Prix. Marc Marquez starts from pole position, and after taking his first Sprint win yesterday he's today searching for his first Grand Prix victory since the second Misano race in 2021.
