Overview

  • Marc Márquez completed the double in Hungary, winning the sprint and the 28‑lap Grand Prix by 4.3 seconds over Pedro Acosta, with Marco Bezzecchi third.
  • His victory expanded the championship lead to 175 points over Alex Márquez, who crashed on Sunday and finished outside the top ten.
  • Stewards sanctioned Fabio Quartararo with a long‑lap and Enea Bastianini with a double long‑lap for separate sprint collisions that also took out Johann Zarco.
  • Riders questioned overtaking opportunities on the narrow circuit; Sunday opened with Márquez clipping Bezzecchi’s rear at Turn 2 before he took the lead on lap 11.
  • Ducati’s Francesco Bagnaia struggled throughout, opting for a drastic setup change, encountering warm‑up gearbox issues, and finishing P13 in the sprint and P9 in the race.
