MotoGP: Francesco Bagnaia has broken the lap record in practice, ahead of the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix
Bagnaia breaks lap record in practice | 01:00 Francesco Bagnaia won an exciting sprint race at the Emilia-Romagna MotoGP on Saturday to cut championship rival Jorge Martin ’s lead at the top of the riders’ standings.
“I tried everything to be at my 100 percent riding and luckily I’m able to ride at my 100 percent,” said Bagnaia. Martin said that a track limits warning caused him to lose focus and leave the opening that Bagnaia, whose best lap was only seven-tenths of a second slower than the track record he posted in qualifying, ruthlessly exploited.
Marquez had pulled himself back into the title hunt after winning the last two GPs and the sprint in Aragon, where Bagnaia crashed out.
