MOTOGP MOTOGP WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP ROUND 4 / APRIL 24, 2016 JEREZ CIRCUIT / JEREZ, SPAIN P78 seconds down, and a badly out- of-sorts Scott Redding (Pramac Ducati) a distant last. Alvaro Bautista (Aprilia) was the only other non-finisher, crashing out on lap six. Only Marquez has scored in every race so far, and his tally of 82 points heads Lorenzo on 65, then Rossi (58), Pedrosa (40) and Pol Espargaro (36). CN Bradl (Aprilia) finally got the bet- ter of last points-scorer Yonny Hernandez (Aspar Ducati) by a 10th of a second. Close behind, Michele Pirro (again riding injured Petrucci's Pramac Ducati) stayed a tenth clear of a late attack from returned injury victim Jack Miller (EG-VDS Honda). Miller's teammate Tito Rabat was four well all weekend, and Laverty narrowly beat Hector Barbera on a similar Avintia bike. Cal Crutchlow (LCR Honda) had dropped away by the end for his first finish of the year, just better than a second clear of a closing Bradley Smith (Monster Yamaha) in 12th. Loris Baz (Avintia Ducati) came through for 13th; Stefan Barbera (8) leads the best of the rest. Crutchlow (35) finally finished the race without any crashes.
