S1, E2: Marc Marquez utterly dominated the Red Bull Grand Prix of the Americas race, taking victory by a four second margin from his Repsol Honda teammate Dani Pedrosa, with Andrea Dovizioso (Ducati Team) completing the podium. A jump start ruined the race for Jorge Lorenzo (Movistar Yamaha MotoGP) as he finished 10th after a ride-through penalty. Lorenzo took the holeshot after a bizarre error from the former World Champion and he rode through the pit lane at the end of the first lap, leaving Marquez clear at the front. Pedrosa tried to stay with Marquez, who was the only 'Factory' rider to run the hard rear tyre, but the youngster sped away to become the first rider to win the first two races of the year from pole in the premier class since Mick Doohan in 1995.
