Welcome to our 2018 MotoGP Thailand Grand Prix commentary.
The 2018 Thailand Grand Prix took place at Buriram International Circuit on Monday October 8, 2018. Read our MotoGP live commentary to see the coverage as it we reported it live.
Dovizioso: "It's not nice to lose on the last corner. This track wasn't ours. We struggled a little bit, but made some changes. Our consumption was better than Aragon but we were right there at the end. We're doing incredible work."
Viñales: "The team worked really good. I used up my tyres getting to the front, and I couldn't attack on the last five laps. Being on the podium in hot conditions is really good."
Imagine Austria / Motegi last year and Qatar this year, but in reverse! Marquez wins it after Dovizioso lunges at the final bend, makes it through, just runs wide and Marquez just squares it off to win by 0.1s!
24/26: Marquez is looking very, very ominous. All over Dovizioso through T3 without making a move. Surely a change of lead is incoming.
24/26: Brilliant from Dovizioso who re-takes the lead at turn 9 after being passed through T8. They change the lead through the final turn again with Dovizioso holding it!
23/26: Marquez has a sniff at T3... In fact, it's more than a sniff. He dives under but there is no way he's making the line, and Dovizioso swoops under on corner exit.
21/26: 1 second covering Dov, Mar, Viñ, Ros. The form book says teh winner will come from either the Ducati or Honda, but Viñales' late race pace is never in question. Could he spring a surprise here with just over 5 laps to go?

25/26: That's allowed Viñales back into it. Before then he was falling away. 3-way fight for the win!
