MotoGP Silverstone - Race Results

Marc Marquez has won his eleventh race of the season after beating Jorge Lorenzo in a close battle at the British MotoGP.

Lorenzo led most of the race, with Marquez sticking in his wheel tracks as they pulled away from the field.

Marquez made his first move for the lead with seven laps to go, but was re-passed by Lorenzo after running wide at the same turn with five laps remaining.

Marquez tried again through the Village and Loop corners with three laps to go. Marquez's initially move was rebuffed by Lorenzo, who held on around the outside, but Lorenzo was made to sit up when Marquez dived inside again at the slow Loop turn.

The pair shook hands on the slow down lap.

Almost eight-seconds behind them, Valentino Rossi got the better of Dani Pedrosa and Andrea Dovizioso after a race long fight for third.

Bradley Smith made a pit stop after earlier fighting for sixth...
