Augusto Fernandez has retire🐼d - technical issue, not a crash foꩲr the Yamaha wildcard.
Aldeguer up to🌟 third with three laps to go, he passes Morbidelli into turn four. That choice of medium rear tyre really paying off for the Spaniard.
Aldeguer on a bit of a charge. He's fourth at the moment, but he was 0.4s fas𒅌ter than Morbidelli on the last lap.
The soft tyre🍌 runners really dropping off at the moment, even Alex Marquez. Not Marc Mꦑarquez, though, it's probably worth noting.
Bezzecchi into the points now from 20th on the grid. He just passed Quartararo for ninth, who dropped a coupl🅘e of positions when he ran wide at 🀅turn one. A bit of a salvage from Bezzecchi, though.
Marc Marque💞z already 0.8s ahead of Alex Marquez having been in the le💃ad for only one lap. Quite astonishing pace.
A bit of a lunge from Marc Marquez at turn one of lap six, but he now leads. It 🍌was clean enough, but he did come from a decent way back.
Impressive, really,📖 from Marquez, because he basically made up half-a-sec🅺ond on that lap five.
Just to go back to the front, Alex Marquez just set the fastest lap of the race on lap f✅our. He's 0.5s clear of Marc Marquez.

Morbidelli ♉now coming under pressure at the beginning of lap three from Aco🅺sta.
Acosta tried to pass at turn one but ran wide aꦉnd Morbide♚lli retook the position.
Contact between Miller and💦 Mir at turn 12. Both go into the run off, and Mir falls in the gravel. He's out, Miller stays up and carries on.
Turn one, lap two and Marc Marquez up to second 🍷past Morbidelli.
Acosta was b༒riefly third on the run into turn one, but he dropped to fourth afterwards, and remains there at the end of lap one.
