"Today is the best day of my life,"
Enea Bas anini said a er taking the
Moto2 tle. "The pace was really
fast and in the middle of the race I
had to push more because I was in
sixth, and Sam [Lowes] was in front.
But finally, I see on the last lap "2020
World Champion," it s ll a dream and
it came true. I dedicate this victory to
everyone in my team from my trainer,
family, everyone in my team, and ev-
eryone in the paddock. This has been
a very difficult season with Covid,
and it's fantas c to race because it's a
drama c situa on."

Oliveira was long gone by the flag,
taking a resounding 3.1-second win after
taking it easy on the last lap.
Fourth went to Red Bull KTM's Pol Es-
pargaro in his final ride before he switches
to Repsol Honda in 2021. He was just
under a second clear of Takaaki Nakagami
(Idemitsu LCR Honda) in fifth, followed
by Andrea Dovizioso, in what may well be
his final MotoGP season, Repsol Honda's
ultra-impressive Stefan Bradl, Aprilia's Aleix
Espargaro, Repsol Honda's Alex Marquez
and Ducati's Johann Zarco in 10th.
