Morbidelli and Acosta round out the top-five, ahead of Di G♛iannantonio, Vinales, Bezzecchi, Binder, and Raul Fernandez who completes the top-10.
Bagnaia on𝔍ly🌱 12th after starting fourth. Quartararo slumped to 11th in the end.
Marc Marquez visible struggling now for edge grip, like the rest of the𒈔 soft runners, but he has 2s back to Alex Marquez and 4s back to Aldeguer who was only a tenth faster than the leader on the penultimat🦂e lap.
Augusto Fernan🥂dez has retired - technical issue, not a crash for the Yamaha wildcard.
Aldeguer up to third with three laps to go, he passes Morbidelli into turn four. That choic💯e of medium rear tyre really paying off for the Spaniard.
Aldeguer on a bit of a charge. He's fourth at the moment, but he was 0.4s faster than Morbid🦂elli ꧃on the last lap.
The soft tyre runners really dropping off at the moment, even Alex Marquez. Not Marc Marquez, though, itꦡ's probably worth noting.
Bezzecchi into the points now from 20th on t💜he grid. He just passed Quartararo for ninth, who dropped a couple of positions when he 𒉰ran wide at turn one. A bit of a salvage from Bezzecchi, though.
Marc Ma♕rquez already 0.8s ah𒈔ead of Alex Marquez having been in the lead for only one lap. Quite astonishing pace.
A bit of a lunge from Marc Marquez at turn one of lap six, but he now leads. It was clean enough, but he did come from a decen🧔t way back.
Impressive, really, from Marquez, beca🔯use he basically made up half-a-second on that lap fi꧙ve.
Just to go back to the front, Alex Marquez just set the fastest lap of the ra🐻ce on lap four. He's 0.5s clear of Marc Marquez.
♔Having been pressuring Morbidelli for third, 🅺Acosta is now back to fifth, passed by Aldeguer who jumped onto the back of the KTM rider when he ran wide at turn one.
Long lap penalty for Mil🍰ler for causing a collision.
Bagnaia's race is getting worse. He just got out-braked by Vinales into turn 12. He's now ninth - where he finished in last year's Sprin🌄t after he spun off the start.
M🍒orbidelli now c💞oming under pressure at the beginning of lap three from Acosta.
🎶Acoꦓsta tried to pass at turn one but ran wide and Morbidelli retook the position.
Contact beꦉtween Mi🍬ller and Mir at turn 12. Both go into the run off, and Mir falls in the gravel. He's out, Miller stays up and carries on.
Turn one, lap two and Marc Marquez up to secon𒆙d past Morbidelli.
Acosta was briefly third on the run into turn one, but he dropped to fourth after𓂃wards, and remains there a𒐪t the end of lap one.
Bagnaia mad🌌e a poor start. He was passed around the outside by Quartararo 🧜at turn three, and he let Di Giannantonio through in the process at turn four.
It's lights out in Aragဣon and the MotoGP Sprint is underway.
Alex Marquez makes the holeshot from Morb💜idelli and Marc Marquez.
Riders are off on their warm-up lap 𓆏ahead of the Sprint in Aragon.
So, just to confirm, both Marc Marquez and Fabio Quartararo, having looked initially to be going with the medium rear, are now both on💦 the ❀soft.
A🙈ldeguer, Bastianini, both Pramac riders, and Di Giannantonio confirmed to be on mediꦉum rear tyres. Everyone else with the soft.
Davide Tardozzi also suggesting that both Ducati Lenov🀅o Tea🐎m riders will be on the soft rear tyre when speaking to the world feed. Says he expects everyone to be on the soft.
Everyone on the medium front, by the way.
