Marc Marquez - 188 points Dani Pedrosa - 167 points Jorge Lorenzo - 153 points Valentino Rossi - 130 points Cal Crutchlow - 127 points Britain's Cal Crutchlow put in a battling display but finished fifth. Marquez, who has finished on the podium in every race he has completed this year, becomes the first man to win all three rounds in the United States. A third straight win strengthened the Repsol Honda rider's grip in the standings with eight races remaining. Pedrosa overtook Lorenzo with two laps remaining to inflict more damage on Lorenzo's hopes of retaining his title, although both men continue to be hampered by injury. Valentino Rossi just squeezed past Crutchlow before the finish line after the pair were involved in a thrilling tussle that also involved Alvaro Bautista. Pedrosa told BBC Sport: "In the last laps I gave 100% and I got second which is amazing for me and good for the Championship. Marc Marquez plan works to perfection at Indianapolis Moto GP Marc is in a strong place but I hope I can recover a little more in the next race. It was hard for me to stay with the group because the bike was sliding both wheels. Lorenzo claimed that he was forced to drop his pace due to a worn rear tyre and was happy to finish. He said: "I lost second place in the last two laps because the tyres from one lap to the next made a big drop. I almost crashed so I had to slow my pace and finish without crashing. We did a good race. Third position, no crash and lots of points.
