MotoGP in Brazil
Aprilia 1-2 Finish! Bezzecchi Wins Ahead of Martín
Marco Bezzecchi has also won the second Grand Prix of this season’s MotoGP World Championship!
The Italian triumphed in commanding fashion on his Aprilia on Sunday in Goiânia, Brazil, ahead of his teammate Jorge Martín, with Fabio Di Giannantonio (Ducati) finishing third. World Champion Marc Márquez had to settle for fourth place. Bezzecchi had already won the last two races of the previous season. He now has four consecutive victories.
The final result:
KTM rider Pedro Acosta only seventh
The 27-year-old also took the championship lead from KTM rider Pedro Acosta. The Spaniard finished only seventh at the Ayrton Senna Circuit. His teammate Brad Binder was unable to finish the race.
Bezzecchi, who started from second position behind his Italian compatriot Di Giannantonio, quickly took the lead and then rode unwaveringly toward victory. The race was shortened from 31 to 23 laps shortly before the start, with “track wear” cited as the reason. Heavy rains had fallen over Goiânia in the preceding days.
Here are the standings in the World Championship:
“It was a tough weekend!”
Things hadn’t looked promising for Bezzecchi’s latest triumph on Friday. The Italian was still working on his setup during practice. “It was a tough weekend. It was super tough on Friday; we got off to a really bad start. But the guys did a great job, and I pushed myself beyond the limit,” said Bezzecchi. The World Championship continues next week in North America. Races in Austin, Texas, are scheduled to begin on Friday.
In Moto3, the World Championship race ended painfully for Leo Rammerstorfer. The Upper Austrian was thrown from his Honda on the third lap and was unable to continue. The victory went to Spaniard Maximo Quiles.
