Marquez: "I wasn't thinking about the championship." Bezzecchi jokes: "With one less lap..."

In Germany, Marc Marquez reached double figures: at the Sachsenring , the Spaniard won his tenth Sprint race of the season, coming from behind. Starting from pole, he made a mistake on the first lap, going wide and losing the lead, rejoining in fifth place. He first overtook Acosta, then Quartararo, and on the final lap, he also overtook Bezzecchi, who was in the lead. The Italian Aprilia rider had an excellent race, only giving up in the finale after a back-and-forth. Bagnaia had a dull race, finishing in 12th place.
