It’s a hell of a intense race! MotoGP has never been so exciting. Marquez, Lorenzo, Rossi and Iannone overtaking non stop throughout the race. The moment we see Lorenzo create a 1 second gap thinking it was over, that’s where Marquez came in hot. Iannone was superb with his powerful Ducati did a few spectacular overtaking moves, overtaking both Marquez and Rossi in one corner.
With 2 laps to go, we see Lorenzo leading the race followed by Marquez, Iannone and Rossi and the last lap was exciting with Marquez taking the lead from Lorenzo just a few corners before the finish line. Rossi had to settle with fourth place when he was overtaken by Iannone after a slight contact. Despite Rossi clearly was underpowered, he managed to stay with the lead pack on a high speed track. Rossi now leads the championship points over Lorenzo by 11 points.
This is one of the most exciting race of the season!
