Marc Marquez has completed two perfect weekends in a row, as he has claimed pole, sprint win and race win at the Argentinian Grand Prix. Closely followed by his younger brother Alex Marquez who led the race for a large part. And Franco Morbidelli surprised the grid by claiming his first podium for the VR46 Racing Team.

The race didn’t come easy for Marquez, who lost the lead early in the race after going wide in turn 1, where his brother and closest championship rival Alex Marquez took advantage of the mistake, taking the lead on lap 4.

Marc Marquez’s attitude seemed completely different to last time out in Thailand where he conceded the lead early in the race to keep up his tyre pressure. And his brother Alex seemed a lot more comfortable in the lead this time around.

The championship leader had a massive moment in the chase of the Gresini rider, but on lap 21 the inevitable happened as Marc Marquez retook the lead and never looked like slowing down. The Spaniard claimed a historic 90^th victory, tieing him for third on the all-time wins’ standings alongside 13-time World Champion Angel Nieto.

Alex Marquez claimed second for consecutive races, solidifying his 2^nd place in the MotoGP World standings.

Franco Morbidelli showed early signs of pace after starting on the soft rear tyre, and at one point looked like challenging for the victory of the grand prix. But as his grip faded his early pace disappeared, but he was able to fend off a late charge from Pecco Bagnaia to claim his first podium for VR46 Racing and his first since the 2021 Spanish GP.

His teammate Fabio Di Giannantonio’s last lap overtake on the once again impressive Honda rider Johann Zarco, secured an all-Ducati top 5 in the race.

The reigning Moto2 champion and rookie Ai Ogura impressed again as came from 15^th on the grid on his Trackhouse Aprilia to finish 8^th place. Behind the KTM of Brad Binder who finished 7^th place, almost 15 seconds off the lead of the Grand Prix.

His teammate Pedro Acosta claimed 9^th place, closely followed by the Honda Pairing of Joan Mir and Luca Marini. Marini scored his highest finish as a Honda rider.

The highest placed Yamaha came from Alex Rins who placed 12^th ahead of Maverick Vinales in 13^th and Jack Miller in 14^th. The final point scorer was the 2021 world champion Fabio Quartararo, whose race was compromised at turn 1 on the first lap, when Marco Bezzecchi ran into the back of him forcing him into the gravel.

It was another tricky day for runner up of last year’s world championship Pecco Bagnaia, who really struggled to keep up the pace of his teammate. Bagnaia is now 31 points off the lead of the Championship, heading into another of Marc Marquez’s favourite tracks the Circuit of Americas in Texas.

Update: Ai Ogura has been disqualified from the Argentinian Grand Prix for using software not homologated by the championship on his bikes ECU. Raul Fernandez now scores a point coming home in 15th place.
