Check out the full 2026 Americas MotoGP Sprint Race Results, COTA, round 3 of 22.

Jorge Martin stormed to his first Aprilia victory in dramatic fashion at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas after a last-minute pass on former title rival Francesco Bagnaia.

The Spaniard gambled on the medium, rather than soft rear tyre, and used its longevity to full-effect, moving from seventh on the grid to fourth by the end of the first lap before overcoming Bagnaia on the final lap.

Marc Marquez and Fabio Di Giannantonio crashed out of the race on the first lap, while Marco Bezzecchi also tumbled, losing his points lead to Aprilia team-mate Martin.

KTM’s Pedro Acosta rounded out the podium in third place but is under investigation for low tyre pressure, which could promote KTM stablemate Enea Bastianini from fourth in final classification.

Alex Marquez finished fifth for Gresini as Luca Marini took Honda’s best result of the season in sixth. Ai Ogura, Raul Fernandez and Johann Zarco took the final points.
