The MotoGP 2024 season is nearing its end as still there are only two races left on the calendar. The penultimate race will happen in the Asian country of Malaysia which will host MotoGP races at its tried and tested Sepang International circuit. The last race was held in Thailand where Ducati Lenovo rider Francesco Bagnaia won a tense battle in wet conditions. He and Marc Marquez battled hard for the win before Marquez crashed out of the race. Bagnaia has now reduced Jorge Martin's championship points lead to just 17 after the Thailand Grand Prix.

Who will win the title?

There are just two races to go and anything can happen in MotoGP. Will Jorge Martin win his maiden MotoGP world championship or Will Bagnaia win his third consecutive MotoGP world title? We should wait and see. The 25th edition of the Malaysian MotoGP race will happen between November 1 and 3 at the Sepang International Circuit. It is a 5.5 KM circuit that hosted multiple years of Formula 1 and MotoGP races.

Last year the Petronas Sepang International Circuit accommodated 1,82,912 spectators. Enea Bastianini won last year's Malaysian Grand Prix. It was also a very special occasion for Ducati last year as they won the Team World titles, Constructors World title and Riders World title in Malaysian GP.

This year will be very different compared with last year as Prima Pramac Racing team rider Jorge Martin is leading the world title. Ducati riders Bagnaia and Bastianini are behind the Spaniard. We also saw a resurgence of 6-time world champion Marc Marquez. So the race will be a very exciting contest to watch.
