Marc Marquez won the MotoGP title for the fifth time in a row in Czechia, furthering his lead.
Marquez, 32, who also won the Saturday sprint race, is now 120 points clear of his younger brother Alex, who was involved in a car accident while he was competing.
After the incident was reviewed by stewards after the race, Alex Marquez collided with Joan Mir and received a long lap penalty that he will serve at the Austrian Grand Prix after the summer break.
A rider must follow a longer designated route around the track section, which adds a few seconds to their lap time, as a result of a long lap penalty.
Francesco Bagnaia, a two-time champion, won the race for the first time in his first pole position of the season before falling to third after Marco Bezzecchi and Marc Marquez overtook him.
Jorge Martin, the reigning champion, made his first appearance in the sport since April with a string of broken bones. He was seventh.
