T
he second round of the enormous 2023 MotoGP sea-
son saw two action-packed races for the world's pre-
mier riders, a bunch of crashes, race direction come
under fire yet again, and the world champion bite the dust
while chasing his great friend from the VR46 Academy.

went to Marco Bezzecchi (Mooney VR46 Ducati), the
young Italian notching his and his team's first win in the

Francesco Bagnaia (Lenovo Ducati).
