FIM MOTOGP WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP
ROUND 7 / SEPTEMBER 18-20, 2020
MISANO WORLD CIRCUIT MARCO SIMONCELLI / RIMINI, SAN MARINO
P78
(Above) Italtrans Racing Team's Enea Bastianini clinched
a vital victory in the Moto2 World Championship after rain
heavily affected the Rimini Moto2 race. Red flags were
brought out after just seven laps as the heavens opened
but, from the restart, the ultra-aggressive Bastianini edged
clear to take the win ahead of SKY Racing Team VR46's
Marco Bezzecchi and EG 0,0 Marc VDS' Sam Lowes and in
doing so cut Luca Marini's title lead down to just five points.
In the championship, Marini leads on 112 over
Bastianini (95) and Bezzecchi (85).
(Below) Sterilgarda Max Racing Team's Romano Fenati
(55) won his first race since the 2019 Austrian GP after
emerging victorious in another stunning Moto3 race.
The Italian got the better of second place Celestino
Vietti (SKY Racing Team VR46) to make it an Italian 1-2
with Ai Ogura (Honda Team Asia) once again finishing
on the podium to close down fourth place Albert Arenas
(Gaviota Aspar Team Moto3) in the championship. Arenas
leads the title with 119 points over Ogura at 117
and John McPhee at 98.
