That was probably it for the dream of the MotoGP title. Challenger Jorge Martin (25) had a bad start at the GP in Qatar and then seemed to have a problem with the rear tire for the entire race: only 10th place for the Spaniard from Pramac-Ducati.
However, defending champion Francesco Bagnaia (26) remains cool in the penultimate race of the season. The Italian from the Ducati factory team leads for a long time and then crosses the finish line in second. Bagnaia is likely to extend his World Cup lead over Martin to 21 points.
Di Giannantonio wins, but no longer has a team
At the final in Valencia next week, another 37 points can be achieved in the sprint race on Saturday and the Grand Prix on Sunday. But without falls and technical failures in the final, Bagnaia’s second world title in a row can hardly be taken away.
Why Bagnaia doesn’t win the race? Because he is chased around by the released Fabio Di Giannantonio (25) and then overtaken. World champion Bagnaia seems to be annoyed by the sudden drive in front of his compatriot, who brakes too late at the end of the fast start-finish straight and almost crashes behind Di Giannantonio.
The race winner must give priority to Marc Marquez
After the world champion was almost shot, Di Giannantonio’s victory can no longer be taken away: an unemployed pilot takes the sensational victory. Because the Italian no longer has a contract for next season, he will be replaced by superstar Marc Marquez (30) at Gresini-Ducati in 2024.
MotoGP: Valentino must now replace Rossi’s half-brother Marc Marquez
Di Giannantonio is the big loser in this motorcycle transfer of the decade. Now, after his first victory in the premier class, he will soon hit the road as a MotoGP race winner.
After the race he said: “That was a kind of revenge from me. This victory is for everyone who always believed in me.” Valentino Rossi’s half-brother Luca Marini (26) completes the all-Italian podium.
