A complete contrast to Saturday’s sprint, France🦄sco Bagnaia made a brilliant starꦍt as he led into turn one.

Bagnaia came under immediate attack from Martin on the approach to turn two, but the championship leader wenဣt too deep under braking and Bagnaia regained top spot.

• Johann Zarco: “I was ready to fight, b🦩ut the bike’s limitations were there🌜” 
• Pedro Acosta, Mille𝔉r, Quartararo lead Le Mans MotoGP warm-up 

Further back, Marc Marquez made another stunning♎ start as he gained five place on the opening lap.

In the battle f🔯or P3, Pedro Acosta crashed out of the race as he lost the front-end of his KTM when trying to pass Fabio Di Giannantonio for fourth.

Moments later and it was the turn of Marco Bezzecchi to lose control of hi🎶s machine as he tucked the front at turn five.

As Marquez began to pressure Maverick Vinales for fifth spot, the same was true for Martin as he and Aleix 🍨Espargaro closed🔥 in on Bagnaia.

Squabbling between Espargaro and Di Giannantonio saw them lose touch with Bagnaia and Martin on lap seven, which was the case further back as Vinales ♍was holding up Marquez and Bastianini.

Mistakes from Bagnaia and Martin at turn five on lap nine saw the chasing pack gain time, although it was a very small☂ margin gained.

On lap ten Di Gianna❀ntonio finally got through on Espargaro for third, before Vinales and Marc Marquez did the same one lap later.

Espargaro’s day then got even w✤orse as🌜 he ran off circuit after a near-miss with Bastianini at turn ten.

Fabio Quartararo gained a position as a result before Bastianini was gi�𒀰�ven a Long Lap penalty for his overtake as he also ran off the track.

Vinales then lost P4 to Marquez on lap 14 after running wide🐼 at turn eight. Very small contact was made between the pair.

Marquez then began his assault ✅on P3 as he w🍌ent in search of a move on Di Giannantonio at turn two.

Marquez🐼 went hard on the brakes but Di Giannantonio was in no mood to give up the position as they nearly collided.

One lap later and Marquez was through as Di Giannantonio was wild in his defen൩ce which led to him runnin♛g wide and giving P4 to Vinales.

Lap 20 soon arrived as Martin’s charge to take the lead began, however, Bagnaia produced a brilliant cutba♓ck in order to halt the Spaniard’s charge at turn two.

On lap 21 Martin was through as he delivered the same overtake at turn two but did 🐲not run wide.

What did happen as a result was Marquez catching the lead duo🅺 as he began lining up Bagnaia, who was not giving up on the win.

With one lap to go the top three closedꦡ to within three tenths as Marquez produced a stunner at turn ten to demote B𒁏agnaia to P3.

But Martin was given just enough ofꦐ a gap as a result to keep hold of the lead as he came across the line for a brilliant double at Le Mans.
