Jorge Martín claimed victory at the French Grand Prix in Le Mans, marking his return to winning form in MotoGP with a dominant doubleheader weekend. After a stunning sprint race on Saturday, where he executed one of the best starts in recent championship history—jumping from eighth to first in just two corners—Martín followed up with a commanding long-race victory on Sunday. The win was sealed by a decisive overtake on Marco Bezzecchi with three laps remaining, capping off a remarkable comeback.
Ai Ogura completed an Aprilia podium sweep by taking third, while Pedro Acosta finished fifth behind Fabio Di Giannantonio. The race saw several high-profile crashes, including those of Joan Mir, Francesco Bagnaia, and Álex Márquez.

With this first win since Indonesia 2024, Martín now sits just one point behind championship leader Marco Bezzecchi in the standings. The absence of Marc Márquez and the early-season dominance of Aprilia have set the stage for a fierce title battle between the two Noale teammates, keeping the championship race wide open.
