Bagnaia and Bastianini Share Thailand GP Wins

Francesco Bagnaia claimed victory at the Thailand Grand Prix, reducing his championship gap to Jorge Martin to 17 points with two race weekends remaining. Bagnaia capitalized on errors by Martin and Marc Marquez to win his ninth race of the season in challenging wet conditions. Despite a mid-race mistake, Martin managed to finish second, maintaining a lead over Bagnaia, who had earlier set a new lap record during qualifying. In the sprint race, Enea Bastianini took advantage of a first-corner clash between the rivals to secure the win, with Martin finishing second and increasing his overall advantage to 22 points. Bagnaia expressed frustrations over track limit violations by Martin and emphasized his focus on clean racing without relying on team orders. The upcoming races at Sepang and Valencia will be crucial as Bagnaia aims to overtake Martin for the championship title.
