ROUND 18 / NOVEMBER 10-12, 2023 SEPANG INTERNATIONAL CIRCUIT / SELANGOR, MALAYSIA MOTOGP I FIM MOTOGP WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP P80 Artigas (CFMoto Racing Prustel- GP), Joel Kelso (CFMoto Racing PrüstelGP), Filippo Farioli (Red Bull KTM Tech3) and Ryusei Yamanaka (Gaviota GasGas Aspar Team) completing the top 10. CN MotoGP Sunday Grand Prix 1. Enea Bastianini (Duc) 2. Alex Marquez (Duc) 3. Francesco Bagnaia (Duc) 4. Jorge Martin (Duc) 5. Fabio Quartararo (Yam) MotoGP Sprint Race 1. Alex Marquez (Duc) 2. Jorge Martin (Duc) 3. Francesco Bagnaia (Duc) 4. Enea Bastianini (Duc) 5. Brad Binder (KTM) It was three riders going for the win and Veijer passed Sa- saki for the lead as the final lap began. Sasaki looked for a way through at the final corner but he couldn't find one and Veijer raced to a historic victory, the first Dutch winner since Hans Spaan at Brno in 1990. Sasaki took 20 points for second, but Masia also took a valuable podium and 16 points. The Spaniard is, therefore, 13 points clear of Sasaki in the title fight, with Alonso and Holgado both out of it, 41 points adrift. Ivan Ortola (Angeluss MTA Team KTM) came home fourth ahead of David Munoz (BOE Motorsports), with Adrian Fer - nandez (Leopard Racing), Xavier down championship challenger Dani Holgado (Red Bull KTM Tech3), Ricardo Rossi (SIC58 Squadra Corse Honda), and Diego Moriera (MT Helmets MSI KTM), with Taiyo Furusato also crashing at the same corner in a separate incident. The group became Masia, Sasaki, Veijer, Deniz Oncu (Red Bull KTM Tech3), Jose Antonio Rueda (Red Bull KTM Ajo) and Matteo Bertelle (Rivacold Snip - ers Team). Then more drama as Rueda got it wrong at the final corner when going for a move on Bertelle, making contact with the Italian then unable to save it and going down and taking down his teammate Oncu just ahead, putting paid to the Turk's title hopes. Collin Veijer (95) charged through for a first Grand Prix win in Moto3.
