Bagnaia remains at the top of riders' standings followed by his Ducati teammates Jorge Martin and Marco Bezzecchi, and KTM rider Brad Binder respectively.
Looking at the constructors' standings, Ducati, who have won the 2023 title, are sitting at the top - followed by KTM and Aprilia respectively.
Quotes
“Yes, possibly yes, because as I said before everyone loves Phillip Island,” Zarco, who is now placed fifth on the riders' standings, said when asked if his first win coming in Australia made it better in some way on MotorSport.
“So, if you can win there you feel you are part of ‘the big one’. We could do it overall in 2017, it was huge [group battle], and this one was different because Jorge went away and could do this race alone.
“Finally in the end he was there and we had these overtakes in this big group to finish. It’s anyway amazing to win, but with a little plus.”
