Somkiat Chantra completes a perfect Japanese Moto2 Grand Prix weekend with a lights-to-flag victory at Motegi.

Team-mate Ai Ogura finishes runner-up in his home race after likewise keeping clear of title leader Pedro Acosta.

Acosta had to fight back from seventh on the opening lap but further extended his championship lead over an off-pace Tony Arbolino to 51 points.

Peter has been in the paddock for 20 years and has seen Valentino Rossi come and go. He is at the forefront of the Suzuki exit story and Marc Marquez’s injury issues.
