The 2022 MotoGP World Championship has been reduced to a two-rider battle, overwhelmingly in favour of Francesco Bagnaia, after the Ducati star's victory in Sunday's Malaysian Grand Prix.
Third place for Fabio Quartararo at least kept his mathematical title hopes alive, while Aleix Espargaro and Enea Bastianini are now out of contention but in a close fight for third.
