Dani Pedrosa won the Grand Prix (his seventh at Valencia across all classes, his 54th in career, and his 31st in the MotoGP class. Meanwhile, Marquez’s closest championship rival, Ducati’s Andrea Dovizioso, crashed out of the competition.

Dani Pedrosa said, “Obviously I’m very very happy because a win is a win, and this was a very tough and hard-fought one. Today we had a chance because we got a good start and the setup was working well, so we took it. The track wasn’t easy as front grip wasn’t perfect, and in fact we saw a lot of crashes in the race. I was just behind Marc when he made that save and it was incredible. The smoke, the noise, the speed—wow, impressive!”
