Alex Rins wins the round of the MotoGP World Championship of Aragon – Magazin Sport Nachrichten –

Rins beat his Spanish compatriots Alex Márquez in Honda and Joan Mir in Suzuki. Fabio Quartararo, who started from pole, ran out of points and handed over the championship lead to Mir. The best KTM rider was Brad Binder (11th).

Rins drove a tactically smart race, after a very good start he was smooth on the tires and took his time to overtake. “The victory is for the public that was not allowed to come, for the team and the family,” Rins said. Marquez avoided a Suzuki double win with a strong run. “I would not have thought about it from eleventh place. We definitely have to improve our classification,” he decided to do next week.

With third place, Mir took the lead in the Quartararo World Championship. The Frenchman (Yamaha) finished 18th without points. By the way, he is the only one who has won more than once this season, he has three hits. There wasn’t much to cheer on for KTM on Sunday either, with Binder (South Africa) finishing eleventh and Pol Espargaró twelfth. In the World Cup, Mir is sixth ahead of Quartararo with 121 points, Pol Espargaró ninth.
