Charging Marquez and Espargaro salvage top-ten finishes in Assen
Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale.
An incredible charge through the field from #marcmarquez at the Dutch TT delivered seventh from 20th on the grid as #polespargaro clinches another top-ten.
Round nine of the 2021 #motogp World Championship was held under clear skies at the historic TT Circuit #assen, the Repsol Honda Team lining up on the grid as they prepared for an uphill challenge. The morning started well with both #marcmarquez and #polespargaro finishing the morning Warm Up in the top ten and displaying promising pace. Early fears of rain soon vanished as the grid formed up for the 26-lap Grand Prix later in the day.
Marc Marquez was unstoppable off the line as he jumped up the order when the lights went out, ending lap one in 12th after starting down in 20th on the grid. Within just three laps Marquez had made up a total of ten positions as he attached himself to the group at the front and settled in for the race. Consistent pace and mistakes ahead moved Marquez up the order until the second half of the race when he began to attack and slid past Aleix Espargaro for seventh. Their battle would reignite in the closing laps, the Honda RC213V gaining the advantage on the final lap. His charge through the field would leave Marquez with a seventh-place finish after starting in 20th, making up 13 places over the course of the race – a strong finish after his hard fall on Friday.
A frantic start to the race put #polespargaro on the defensive in the opening lap, battling to keep his position in the front group. Working to stay with his fast-starting team-mate, Espargaro held his own in the fight behind and sat in 11th for the majority of the race. Crossing the line in tenth place, Espargaro now holds 41 World Championship points as he enters the summer break. Saturday remains a critical point for Espargaro, delivering in Qualifying the key focus after the break.
Takaaki Nakagami produced a thrilling race aboard the Honda RC213V of the LCR Team, fighting for the podium throughout the early parts of the race with Viñales and Bagnaia. Nakagami would eventually cross the line in ninth place.
The #motogp World Championship will now enjoy the mid-season summer break, returning to action at the Styrian Grand Prix on August 08. For the Repsol Honda Team it offers a chance to regroup and attack the second half of the season after a difficult start to 2021.
