The French driver benefits from the fact that Andrea Dovizioso could only save a fifth place this Sunday to keep the leadership with only three points ahead of the Italian.
While the standings remain very tight, Jack Miller capitalizes on his second place of the day to jump from seventh to third position, 11 points behind Dovizioso. Behind him, the hierarchy remains particularly uncertain with differences of only one to two points between Binder, Viñales, Nakagami, Rossi, Mir and Oliveira, the winner of the day.
Even if the top 3 of the constructors’ standings remains unchanged, the gaps are also erased between Yamaha, Ducati and KTM, contained in just six points. Despite two Grands Prix having brought only meager rewards, the Petronas team retains the leadership in the teams’ championship and even passes the 100 points mark, while the double remains assured by the official Yamaha team. However, Ducati goes back to ten points from the Malaysian team. Further down, Tech3 climbs two places thanks to its victory.
