FIM MOTOGP WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP
ROUND 12 / OCTOBER 25, 2020
MOTORL AND ARAGON / TERUEL, SPAIN
P100
"I am very happy with this win," said Morbidelli who is the first
non-Spaniard to win at Aragon since Casey Stoner in 2011. "It feels
a little bit different to when I won in Misano. It comes from the hard
work that the crew has put in; they have done an unbelievable job
and worked so well together to get this win. The bike was perfect
during the race, I was feeling great and I just had to focus on getting
the bike to the finish line in the shortest, fastest, time possible. Now
home it will be difficult, I don't want to
go out. It will be crucial for us to not
miss any races."
NAKAGAMI REWARDED
Takaaki Nakagami is to be rewarded
for his sterling efforts this season
by HRC as the 28-year old signed a
two-year contract with Honda to stay
in the LCR team for 2021. Crucially,
the Japanese rider will have the
same spec-bike as Repsol riders
Marc Marquez and Pol Espargaro
when the season eventually kicks off.
Nakagami has always been compet-
ing with year-old RC213Vs since
joining MotoGP in 2018.
Briefly...
(Above) Takaaki Nakagami (30) got
to enjoy the fruits of being on pole for
a few turns. Nakagami was primed to
nab the first win of his career but that
is going to have to wait.
Brad Binder ran into the back
of Jack Miller just a few turns
into the race. Neither were
seriously injured but their day
was done early.
