MotoGP Misano 1 Championship: Quartararo controls Bagnaia, only remaining rival

In view of the progress of this Grand of San Marino in Misano, Ducati can at least convince itself of one thing: the brand has no regrets about a team strategy to counter Fabio Quartararo. Indeed, even facing four GP21s at the start, the Frenchman did not give up in this fourteenth round of a championship that he masters perfectly. Here he is with 48 points in advance, instead of 53, which still remains in his plan to close the debates in Portimao, and not in Valencia in the last event...

fabio quartararo had everything to fear from this San Marino Grand Prix on a plot of Misano whom he will meet again in a few weeks, after a trip to Austin. Indeed, the rain was threatening. But she didn't show up. Then, the Ducati had formed the square around the Frenchman thus theoretically neutralized. But it was not enough. Martin annoyed him for a few laps before falling, Miller resisted before breaking down and then paid the high price by giving in bastianini, in a state of grace with the GP19, Marc Marquez and Joan Mir.

So all that remained was bagnaia who was caught but fell a little short of definitively defeating the Red Army. The five points dropped are a lesser evil and remain in the progress table of the Frenchman who has set himself the deadline of Portimao to fold the affair. With now a liability of 67 points, Joan mir is only to be cited for the record.

Misano: Johann Zarco has returned to the ranks

The third man in this Grand Prix is ​​also on the third step of the podium since it is bastianini. The Avintia driver was great, literally burying his teammate Marini who finished in an anonymous place, i.e. 19th behind Morbidely et Red.

We end with the one we no longer talk about and who has 9 points scored in four races, i.e. Johann Zarco. Twelfth in this round, he remains fourth overall due to the collapse of Jack Miller at the end of the game which sticks it by one point. Sixth place continues to be played out between Brad Binder et Aleix Espargaró.
