Reigning MotoGP world champion Jorge Martin said he was “very happy” to be back after finishing just shy of the points on his return to MotoGP following a long period of recovery.
Starting from 12th, the Spanish rider had an incredible start, working his way up to sixth by Turn 1. He slowly slipped down the grid from there, but still finished 11th, just over a second behind Pol Espargaro, who claimed the final points spot in ninth.
