Mir takes his first MotoGP race victory and puts one hand on the 2020 title in the European GP at Valenci♕a.

Mir took the lead when Suzuki team-mate Rins ran slightly wide with 10 laps remaining, edging out a safe advantage a🌼s KTM's Espargaro completed the podium.

A nightmare race for Yamaha saw Quartarar🔯o - who began the race closest to Mir in the championship - fall in tandem with Aprilia's Espargaro (no contact) at Turn 8 on the opening lap, rejoining a distant last.

Petronas Yamaha team-mate Morbidelli t𝐆hen couldn't make an impact on the hard rear tyre, Vinales remained out of contention following his pit lane start and Rossi's M1 broke down on the Italian's return to race action after missing both Aragon rounds due to covid.

All of which meant Mir, who came into the race with a 14-p𒈔oint lead over Quartararo, now has a 37-point advantage over both Rins 𒁏and Quartararo.

Mir now has an excellent chance of wrapping up the title at Valencia next weekend, w🗹hen he will need a 26-point lead at the end of the race.

Binder had a long lap penalty to serve in the 🉐race for a collision with Miller at Aragon, while Aprilia's Espargaro had been demoted from sixth on the grid to ninth for failing to respect blue flags in Qualifying 2.

Tech3 KTM's Iker Lecuona was forced to withdraw from the even✤t and self-isolate after a positive Covid test for his brother and assistant.

Bradley Smith, standing in for Andrea Iannone, has been&nbﷺsp;replaced by fellow Aprilia test rider Lorenzo Savadori for the remaining events.

HRC test rider Bradl is again replacing 𒀰injured reigning w⛄orld champion Marc Marquez.
