T
he 2024 MotoGP title
fight between Francesco
Bagnaia (Ducati Lenovo
Team) and Jorge Martin (Prima
Pramac Ducati) took another
turn on Sunday, with the former
crashing out of the 2024 Emilia-
Romagna MotoGP while desper
-
ately trying to hunt down lead-
ers Martin and Enea Bastianini
(Ducati Lenovo Team).
Bastianini would triumph at
his home circuit after clattering
into the side of Martin, amaz-
ingly escaping any form of sanc-
tion. Martin was a thoroughly
annoyed second place, and
Marc Marquez (Gresini Ducati)
was elevated to third.
In Moto2, Celestino Vietti
(Red Bull KTM Ajo) pulled a
perfect slipstream to snatch the
Moto2 win, while in Moto3, Mr.
Moto3, David Alonso (CFMoto
Gaviota Aspar Team) pulled yet
another close one to take his
eighth win of the season.
