After waiting over 1,000 days for his first Ducati win, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Marc Marquez has claimed his second in a week with a surprise victory in the San Marino MotoGP.

Saying he had 'destr𝓡oyed' his weekend after a qualifying crash left him ninth on the grid, the Gresini Ducati rider capitalised on a brief rain shower to snatch the race lead.

Marquez then kept clear of reigning champion Francesco Bagnaia and the sister factory✃ Ducati of Enea Bastianini to the chequered flag.

"Maybe Fausto [Gresini] sprin🍸kled some rain," Marquez said in p𝔍arc ferme, pointing to the heavens.

Meanwhile⭕, much of Jorge Martin’s titl▨e advantage was wiped out when a pit-stop decision backfired, leaving the Sprint winner a lap down.

Bagnaia had avoi🦄ded yesterday’s clutch slip to keep the lead into Turn 1, with Martin slotting into third behind team-mate Franco Morbidelli.

Martin swiftly passed Morbide﷽lli but a tentative attem꧅pt to dive under Bagnaia on lap 2 almost ended in disaster.

Backing out just in time, Martin stayed patiently behind Bagnaia un🤪til the rain drops su🧜ddenly intensified after 7 of 27 laps.

Morbidelli was the f🌠irst victim, crashing out of third, while Martin made a huge call to pit at the end of the lap - de🌜spite Bagnaia, and the rest of the frontrunners, staying out.

Bagnaia backed off, creating a long train o🎉f riders, with Marc Marquez 📖slicing through the pack to lead.

Crucially, the rain cleared, leaving Marti🌞n 12-secoღnds down in 15th place, on wets.

The Spaniard realised it was a lost cause and, like others that ꦉhad gambled on the💛 rain increasing, pitted for slicks again on lap 10.

Martin re-joined a lap down, just behind the Marquez-Bagnaia victory battle and finished 15t🔯h.

Bagnaia was content to follow the Gresini rider throughout the middle stages ♓but looked in danger of being hunted🍒 down by Bastianini.

Riding sore from last Sunday’s Arag💎on collision with Alex Marquez, Bagnaia dropped back from Marquez in thꦫe closing stages with Bastianini settling for a safe third.

Brad Binder, fr🐓ont-row starꩵter Marco Bezzecchi and Alex Marquez completed the top six.

Jack Miller used the slick conditions to rise as high as third during the rain shower before being re🦂legated to eighth, just behind the Yamaha of Fabio Quartararo.

KTM rookie Pedro Ac🍌osta went on the early attack but lost a wing in contact with Morbidelli and later crashed from 4th, re-joining at the back of the field.

There were no Repsol Hondas on this afternoon’s g🌠rid after Luca Marini joined team-mate Joan Mir 💙is being sidelined by sickness.

Pol Espargaro was making his thir✅d race weekend appearance of the season for KTM, with HRC test rider Stefan Bradl also entered as a wild-card this weekend.

Misano is hosting two consecutive MotoGP rounds this season𓆉, starting with this weeken꧙d’s San Marino Grand Prix.

An Official MotoGP test takes place on Monday before a return to the Italian circuit for the ‘Emilia Romagna’ round, in place of I🍸ndia/Kazakhstan, on September 20-22.

Revised tyre pressure rules for 2024 mean riders must stay above a lower front minimum of 1.8 bar (instead of ꩵ1.88) for 60% (instead of 50%) of a G🍬rand Prix distance, or 30% of a Sprint.

The penalty fo⛄r failing to meet this minimum in a Grand Prix will be a 16-second post-race time penalty, or an 8-second penalty for a Sprint/short race.

However, the raindrops meant the tyre pressure system was💞 not active for to🌟day's race.
