MOTOGP FIM MOTOGP WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP ROUND 5 / MAY 17-19, 2019 BUGATTI CIRCUIT / LE MANS, FRANCE P80 MotoGP 1. Marc Marquez (Hon) 2. Andrea Dovizioso (Duc) 3. Danilo Petrucci (Duc) 4. Jack Miller (Duc) 5. Valentino Rossi (Yam) Moto2 1. Alex Marquez (Kal) 2. Jorge Navarro (SU) 3. Augusto Fernandez (Kal) 4. Brad Binder (KTM) 5. Xavi Vierge (Kal) Moto3 1. John McPhee (Hon) 2. Lorenzo Dalla Porta (Hon) 3. Aron Canet (KTM) 4. Gabriel Rodrigo (Hon) 5. Andrea Migno (KTM) Masia (Bester KTM) came through from 23rd on the grid to cross the line eighth, setting the fastest lap in the process. But a 2.2-second penalty for exceeding track limits dropped him to 12th. There were only 17 finishers after many crashes—two notable victims being long-time leader Tatsuki Suzuki (SIC58 Honda) and Tony Arbolino (Snipers Honda) after the first-named fell under Arbolino's front wheels shortly after half-distance. Canet extended his points lead, now with 74 points, Dalla Porta moves into second with 60, with Jerez winner Antonelli at 57 after crashing out. Toba has 51, Masia 49. CN tacts through the tight corners. Third-placed Aron Canet (Sterilgarda KTM) got the best of it, after colliding and ending the hopes of rookie Kaito Toba (Honda Team Asia), who had come through to challenge for the lead in a remarkable ride from an earlier 12th. This left Gabriel Rodrigo (Kommerling Honda) in fourth, ahead of erstwhile leader Andrea Migno (Bester KTM), Toba, Celestino Vietti (SKY VR46 KTM), Kazuki Masaki (BOE KTM) and latecomers Jakub Kornfeil (Redox KTM) and Raul Fernandez (Sama KTM) in 10th. Argentine GP winner Jaume The Wee McFee (17) just held on for his first-ever dry- weather race win in Moto3.
