Rossi extends overall lead
Print Edition
MotoGP world champion Marc Marquez won a San Marino Grand Prix thriller for Honda yesterday while Valentino Rossi extended his overall lead to 23 points despite a strategy blunder that cost him victory.
Yamaha鈥檚 Rossi, the home hero at Italy鈥檚 Misano circuit, ended up fifth after delaying a switch back to slick tires on a drying track following earlier rain while Honda鈥檚 Marquez made the right call. In a race full of surprises and changing weather, with the top riders pitting twice to switch bikes, Rossi鈥檚 teammate and rival Jorge Lorenzo crashed out in another blow to the Spaniard鈥檚 title hopes. Britain had two non-factory riders on the podium instead, with Bradley Smith second for Tech3 Yamaha and Scott Redding taking his first top-three finish on the Marc VDS Honda despite falling early on. Rossi now has 247 points to Lorenzo鈥檚 224, with Marquez on 184 with five rounds remaining.
