Bezzecchi dominates the Le Mans Grand Prix. He still bathes in the gravel.
– The 1000th grand prix since MotoGP has existed bears the seal of Marco Bezzecchi. Together with him, on the podium, the two Ducati Pramacs of Martin and Zarco, who is on the podium in his home grand prix. However, the race was conditioned by the many crashes, which inevitably upset the order of arrival. On the ground, in sequence, Bagnaia, Vinales, Marini, Alex Marquez, Miller and Marc Marquez who upset the positions at the checkered flag. With one exception, Marco Bezzecchi, who, in our view, would have won the 1000th race in MotoGP history anyway;
– The race of the rider from Rimini of the Valentino Rossi team was exceptional. Started quietly, Bezzecchi managed to rebuild his race overtaking after overtaking, immediately moving close to the leaders, thanks also to overtaking Marquez, the real icing on the cake of his grand prix. “ I pushed it a little outside”he will declare after the race. Malice overtaking Marquez, the boy has courage to spare. The race pace, once the first position was conquered, was sensational. Always under 1’32”, the victory of the Rimini rider has never been in question, on the contrary. Thanks to the tussle between Marquez and Martin, the gap continued to grow up to the checkered flag, legitimizing an incredible victory. Now the Bez is second in the general standings, just one point behind Bagnaia. If we were him, we would seriously think about it, this world championship is showing us that everything is possible;
– The highlight of Le Mans it was the incident between Vinales and Bagnaia. While the group of the leaders was regrouping, a disaster happened between Pecco and the Spanish rider. A decisive overtaking, an even more decisive counter-overtaking and both drivers ended up in the gravel. Probably without obvious faults on either side, the classic racing accident. A real shame, especially if we consider the pastoral care of both riders, who could easily have competed for the podium in the French race. A few skirmishes immediately after the fall, clarified immediately, for real racer;
– When Marc Márquez is on the track, the level rises dramatically. The champion with the number 93 Always forces the opponents to drive to the limit. As does he. To beat Marc Marquez you have to ride better than Mark Marquez, there’s little to discuss. After returning from the injury sustained in Portugal, the Spaniard hinted, once again, that he is still among the fastest on the track, this time also helped by the new Kalex chassis, which has partly hidden his Honda’s problems. Marquez is still a wonderful rider and having managed to stay all that time in front of a wild Martin in tangible proof. Then, with two laps to go, he suddenly finds himself in front of us the version mr. Hyde of the Catalan. Marquez marquezing, basically. Impossible to ask him to manage, second place had to be defended at the cost of yet another fall. However, with him on the track, it’s a completely different world championship;
– At this point in the world championship, the biggest surprise is having a very tight ranking. In fact, what seemed to be a world championship completely dominated by Ducati is proving to be exciting. Four different bikes in the top four at this point of the season was frankly unpredictable. Despite, however, the performances of manufacturers such as KTM and Ducati MOONEY are proving to be of the highest level, we feel we can say that the reason for such an open world championship is, once again, linked to Bagnaia’s performance. Third fall of the year, third zero of the year. Without wanting to exaggerate, he could probably have won every race in this world championship to date. Too bad, it is urgent to find continuity.
