Victory for Enea Bastianini as he looks to end strongly to the season, with Alex Marquez in second.

Bagnaia beats Martin into fourth, extending his lead to 14 points ahead of Qatar, the penultimate race of the season.

BAGNAIA BACK IN THIRD

He briefly lost his third place but he bravely put himself back in a dangerous path and claimed third once more.
