13:31
Crash - Joan MIr, Ai Ogura, Lorenzo Savadori
Ai Ogura and Joan Mir have crashed at Turn 1.
Lorenzo Savadori has gone down too.
13:31
Lap 22/30
Marc Marquez is now six seconds clear, but those crashes will certainly have grabbed his attention.
13:30
No further action on Zarco.
13:30
Alex Marquez is second, Bagnaia now third.
13:30
Crash - Marco Bezzecchi
Another massive moment! Marco Bezzecchi has crashed out of second at Turn 1.
13:29
Lap 21/30
Marquez's lead is up to five seconds now.
13:29
Just 14 riders are now on track, so finishing this race guarantees you at least two points.
13:28
All riders who crashed recently are fine, by the way.
13:28
Lap 20/30
11 laps to go. Marquez leads.
Quartararo is going to have to work hard to keep a charging Aldeguer at bay for fifth over these final laps.
13:27
Zarco is under investigation for crashing under yellow flags for DiGia's fall at Turn 1.
13:27
Lap 19/30
Marc Marquez is now four seconds clear of the field.
Bezzecchi second, Alex Marquez third, Bagnaia dropping away in fourth. Quartararo is up to fifth ahead of Aldeguer, Miller, Binder, Mir and Marini.
13:26

13:25
Lap 18/30
Onto lap 18. Marquez's lead is 3.2s now. DiGia only 0.7s ahead of Bezzecchi.
13:24
Bagnaia is dropping away from Alex Marquez. He's almost a second adrift now.
13:24
Lap 17/30
Another lap ticked off. No change at the front.
13:23
Lap 16/30
Half distance in the books. Marquez's lead is now three seconds. DiGia is just 0.8s ahead of Bez.
Looks like DiGia's pace is dropping - perhaps he's chewed his tyres too much chasing Marquez.
13:21
Lap 15/30
Marc Marquez is 2.5s clear of DiGia now.
13:21
Aldeguer gets Miller at Turn 12 for eighth.
13:20
DiGia has 1.1s over Bezzecchi, who needs to keep an eye on Alex Marquez.
Bagnaia is only 0.5s off this group now in fifth.
13:20
Lap 14/30
Marquez has pulled the pin. He's 2.3s clear of DiGia now at the start of lap 14.
This is now officially a race for second.
13:19
He's just playing with them at this stage. Demoralising.
13:18
Lap 13/30
And as we say that, Marquez has gotten that lead back up to two seconds again.
13:18
Lap 12/30
Marc Marquez's lead is down to 1.5s as DiGia continues to push.
But, what do we know? Marquez is immensely strong on used rubber and DiGia pushing right now will ultimately wear his tyres to a point where he will no longer be able to keep that pace.
