Ducati’s talent dominates, then slides when he’s more than a second ahead of Yamaha’s Spaniard. On the podium Mir and Pol Espargaró. Valentino falls, starts again but retires. Dovizioso 8th
The mockery comes with six laps to go, when Pecco Bagnaia lays down at Turn 6 as he dominates the Emilia-Romagna Riviera di Rimini GP at Misano. He has a 1 ”2 lead over Maverick Viñales and his Ducati is constantly hammering below 1’32” per lap.
Unstoppable for everyone, except for fate: a fall and the dream of the first MotoGP victory, after the first podium on Sunday September 13 behind Morbidelli, he crashes into the sand. From that moment there is no obstacle between Viñales and the first success of the season. Mir, author of a great comeback with Suzuki, and Pol Espargaró, who still leads the KTM to brilliant positions, finished on the podium with the Spanish Yamaha, also thanks to the penalty suffered by Fabio Quartararo (3 “more for having crossed the green at the edge of the track), third at the finish line but fourth for the judges.

Unfortunate race for Valentino Rossi, he crashed after four laps, then restarted but retired due to damage to his Yamaha. Dovizioso finished eighth, adding other precious points for the championship, but not really able to give his World Championship a boost. The Romaña rider, who will leave Ducati at the end of the season, continues to lead the championship with 84 points, but the Quartararo-Viñales pair is at 83 and the rampant Mir rises to 80. Four drivers at four points, and seven more. races at the end of this crazy 2020 World Championship. Franco Morbidelli also out of the race, who had won in Misano a week ago: touched at the start of the race by Aleix Espargaró’s Aprilia, the Roman left the track, tried to recover and finished with an honorable ninth place.
