In MotoGP, Marc Márquez was defeated for the first time in the 2014 season, as he could only finish fourth in the race.[4] Instead, it was his Repsol Honda teammate Dani Pedrosa that took the victory, ahead of the Yamahas of Jorge Lorenzo and Valentino Rossi.[5] In Moto2, championship leader Esteve Rabat took his fifth victory of the season, leading home Marc VDS Racing Team teammate Mika Kallio, while the podium was completed by Sandro Cortese, taking his first podium in the class.[6]

The Moto3 race was closely fought, with the points-scoring positions – from the winner to 15th place – covered by just 1.838 seconds at the finish, a record for all Grand Prix races.[7] The race was won by category veteran Alexis Masbou, for his first Grand Prix win.[8] Enea Bastianini took his first podium finish in second place, with the podium completed by Danny Kent, his first podium since returning to Moto3. Álex Rins finished down in ninth position, having prematurely celebrated what he thought was a race victory.[8][9]

Dani Pedrosa and Jorge Lorenzo, battling for the lead in the MotoGP race. Pedrosa went on to win the race, with Lorenzo finishing in second place.

gollark: > In Murphy's law terms, the SCUE is the thing that can and will go wrong. The most useless of underlings, the SCUE is the last person you want on your team. They cannot follow or understand instructions; they can find the best way to sabotage your efforts with the precision of an idiot savant. There is a good case for shooting thme on sight, but it is usually better to pay them to work for your competition. (Example: Toad).
gollark: So you're SCUE?
gollark: Maybe you're just lying on the test.
gollark: Anyway, you could make it into a 4x4 grid if you wanted to, or a 2x2x2x2 hypercube.
gollark: Transistor good. Your computer has billions of transistors in it.
