T
he world's fastest racers, once again, converged on the home
of grand prix motorcycle racing in the United States at the Red
Bull Grand Prix of The Americas, and it was MotoGP's newest
star, Enea Bastianini (Gresini Ducati) who came out on top after tak-
ing the lead from Jack Miller (Lenovo Ducati) late in the race.
Bastianini started the race from fifth on the grid, the fifth of five
consecutive Ducatis with Jorge Martin (Pramac Ducati) on pole from
Miller, Lenovo teammate Francesco Bagnaia, and Johann Zarco
(Pramac Ducati), and leapt to third by the end of lap one. Miller and
Martin engaged at the front, the Australian, Miller, holding sway for
the first three-quarters of the race and looking good for a first win of
the 2022 season at a circuit he loves.
Enea Bastianini
proved that the
Qatar win was no
flash in the pan
with a classy win
in MotoGP.
