Pramac Racing's Jorge Martin was declared the winner of the Japanese Grand Prix when it was red-flagged halfway through the race on Sunday due to torrential rain that made conditions treacherous for the riders.
Martin was in the lead with Ducati's championship leader Francesco Bagnaia in second while Honda's Marc Marquez was third.
Riders had a nervy start when rain began falling just as the race got under way. Race directors waved the white flag, allowing riders to swap their bikes, and almost everyone came in, except the Yamahas. "I'm happy because this is my first podium on the wet ," Bagnaia said. "We had the possibility to win and Jorge got the points, but I'm still very happy."
