otoGP kicked off its season opener for the
first time in Thailand in suffocating heat at the
Chang International Circuit, but it may as well

get second as the eight-time World Champion took
pole position, the Sprint Race win, and the Sunday GP
victory in a stunning debut in Ducati red.
Like Marquez, Manuel Gonzalez (Liqui Moly Dyna

volt Intact GP) was equally dominant in Moto2 with
pole and a seemingly comfortable win, his first in fully
dry conditions.
