Two-time and defending MotoGP World Champion Francesco Bagnaia led every lap of the MotoGP Grand Prix in Qatar, winning the first GP of 2024 and taking an early lead in the Championship standings.

The factory Ducati rider managed his lead over Prima Pramac Ducati’s Jorge Martin, last year’s Championship runner up and winner of Saturday’s Sprint race,  and factory KTM rider Brad Binder, who would swap second until Binder seized the place for good. Binder, who finished second in the Sprint, also held second in the Championship points, ahead of Martin.

Eight-time World Champion Marc Marquez started his new Ducati career strong, finishing fourth, the best of the 2023 Desmosedicis in the field and less than 1.5 seconds off the podium.
