Marco Bezzecchi continued his dominant run in the MotoGP season, securing a fourth consecutive Grand Prix victory in Brazil—marking a historic first for Aprilia Racing.
The Italian rider delivered a commanding performance, taking the lead early and maintaining control throughout the race. His teammate Jorge Martin finished second, sealing a remarkable one-two finish for Aprilia.
Fabio Di Giannantonio rounded off the podium after an intense battle with Marc Marquez, reversing the outcome of their previous Sprint race duel.
Bezzecchi made a strong start on Sunday, quickly taking the lead, while Di Giannantonio slotted into second from pole position. Marc Marquez held third initially, with Martin and Pedro Acosta making early moves through the pack.
As the race unfolded, Bezzecchi steadily built a gap at the front. A crucial moment came when Di Giannantonio attempted an aggressive overtake on Marc Marquez, forcing both riders wide and allowing Martin to move up into second place.
Despite the competition behind him, Bezzecchi remained unchallenged at the front, eventually crossing the finish line to claim his fourth straight win and take the championship lead. The result also propelled Aprilia to the top of the constructors’ standings.
Further down the order, Ai Ogura finished ahead of Alex Marquez, while Acosta settled for seventh. Fermin Aldeguer, Johann Zarco, and Raul Fernandez completed the top ten.
It was a disappointing outing for reigning champion Francesco Bagnaia and Joan Mir, both of whom crashed out of the race.
