Having held off constant pressure from Marco Bezzecchi (No. 72 Aprilia Racing) in the second half of the Grand Prix, Marc Marquez’s (No. 93 Ducati Lenovo Team) title-winning comeback is drawing ever closer after he clinched victory on a fascinating Sunday in Misano. The MotoGP series now heads to the Japanese GP knowing Marquez can be crowned MotoGP World Champion if results go his way, and the only rider who can stop that from happening was third-place finisher Alex Marquez (No. 73 BK8 Gresini Racing MotoGP). Watch the Race Highlights here. (Thank you to MotoGP.com)
