Marc Marquez moved closer to a sixth MotoGP world title after securing a dominant victory at the Aragon Grand Prix from pole position.
The Spaniard led from start to finish as a fierce podium battle raged behind, with Andrea Dovizioso (Ducati Team) and Jack Miller (Pramac Racing) completing the rostrum.
The Honda Spain's rider, making his 200th grand prix start, nailed his launch off the line and was already a second clear of the field by the end of the first lap, with no one offering up even a hint of a challenge to his imperious pace.
The 26-year-old Honda rider can clinch the championship with victory at the Thailand Grand Prix on 6 October.
Reigning champion Marquez is 98 points clear of Italy's Andrea Dovizioso in the standings.
"I was sure I had the right strategy to push from the start and keep the gap, it looked easy but it was hard because Dovizioso never gives up," he said.
