Alonso Lopez holds off Barry Baltus to win a topsy-turvy Qatar Moto2 season-opener.
The first event of the new Pirelli tyre era saw an unpredictable grand prix with many of the favourites - including dominant pole starter Aron Canet, title favourite Fermin Aldeguer and a furious Tony Arbolino - sink dramatically down the order on the medium rear tyre, while those on the soft rose to the top.
Jake Dixon was declared unfit to continue the weekend after a huge Saturday highside.
