Johann Zarco scored his maiden MotoGP victory in the Australian Grand Prix in dramatic fashion. The Frenchman passed Pramac Ducati teammate Jorge Martin on the final lap to secure the victory on Phillip Island Circuit. It was Zarco’s first triumph since scoring the Moto2 title in 2016. Once getting passed by Zarco, Martin lost second to championship leader Francesco Bagnaia, before sliding to fifth by race’s end. With a runner-up effort, Bagnaia strengthened his points lead over Martin to 27 points.
