The 26-year-old Honda rider can clinch the championship with victory at the Thailand Grand Prix on 6 October.

Reigning champion Marquez is 98 points clear of Italy's Andrea Dovizioso in the standings.

"I was sure I had the right strategy to push from the start and keep the gap, it looked easy but it was hard because Dovizioso never gives up," he said.
