Aprilia's 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Maverick Vinales escapes for a second Sprint victory in a row, on Saturday at the Americas MotoGP, as 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jorge Martin complete the podium.
Pole qualifier Vinales held his advantage at Turn 1 then, after several lap🙈s being shadowed by Marc Marquez and Pedro Acosta, suddenly blasted clear of the six-time MotoGP chamꦿpion.
While the Aprilia star disappeared Marquez, Acosta and Jorge Martin bi♛ckered over best of the rest.
Having salvaged a second row start following two falls in qualifying, title leader Martin muscled past Acಞosta for third place just after the halfway stage.
But Marquez, whose position had looked vulnerable with some♚ earlier out-of-shape moments, responded to pull clear of the Pramac rider and secure second.
Reigning double champion Fra🅷ncesco Bagnaia had a late front fender change on the grid, then wheelied off the line and plummeted from fourth to tenth at Turn 1.
The factory Ducati star struggled to make an impressioℱn for the rest of the Sprint and glanced at his rear tyre after finishing the race in eighth.
Vinales’ team-mate Aleix Espargaro caught Acosta in the clꦉo🐲sing laps but couldn’t quite attack.
Enea Bastianini and Jack Miller ♛swapped sixth place in the closing stages as they finished ahead of Bagnaia, Raul Fernandez, Franco Morbidelli, Miguel Oliveira and Brad Binder, who fought from 17th after a qualifying fall.
Ba𒁏stianini has now taken second in the standings aw🔯ay from Binder.
Fabio Quartararo was the top Yamaha in 15th, one place ahead of team-mate and 2023 Grand Pr❀ix winﷺner Alex Rins.
Honda’s nightmare weekend cont♛inued with Luca Marini the only RC213V to reach the flag, in last place.
Fabio di Giannantonio was forced out by a technical problem on the opening lap, which also saw contact between VR46 team-mate Marco Bezzecchi and Alღex Marquez.
The others on the DNF list were fallers.
All riders chose the medium front and soft rear tyre combination, ⛄but the medium rear might be an option for Sunday’s full-length race.
The uns🉐table COTA su♐bsoil means there has again been a partial resurfacing ahead of this year’s MotoGP event, with new asphalt at turns 2, 9-11, 12 and 16-19.
Revised tyre pressure rules for 2024 mean riders must now stay above a lower front minimum of 1.8 bar (instead of 1🃏.88) for 60% (instead of 50%) of a Grand Prix distance, or 30% of a Sprint.
The penalty for failing to meet this minimum in a Grand Prix will be a 16-second post-race time penalty, or an 8-second p🌌enalty for a Sprint/short race.

Peter has been in the paddock for 20 years and has seen Valentino Rossi come and go. He is at the forefront of the Suzuki eꦍxit story and Marc Marquez’s injury issues.
