In LUSAIL, Qatar, Fabio Di Giannantonio of Gresini Racing won his first MotoGP victory at the Qatar Grand Prix on Sunday. He defeated championship leader Francesco Bagnaia in the final moments of the race, while title contender Jorge Martin finished in 10th place.
Di Giannantonio, who is currently without a MotoGP seat for next season, took on Bagnaia at the Lusail International Circuit to claim his first win. Luca Marini of VR46 Racing, who was on pole position, finished in third place.
Despite this win, Ducati’s Bagnaia has extended his lead over Martin to 21 points, putting him in a strong position to win the rider’s championship. He has the chance to secure back-to-back world titles at the season-ending Valencia Grand Prix next weekend.
