It’s a shame of course but that’s something that can happen in racing, and it was the first time for me with Honda. Then just a few days after that signing he rode a fast and canny race to take his first untainted Moto 2 win (his sole previous victory was due to a red flag stoppage).” Just behind the leading group, and an eventual excellent fourth barely behind Rossi, went to the local favourite, Isle of Man resident Cal Crutchlow. He’s also feeling good, as his contract with the Aspar satellite Ducati squad has just been renewed for next season. With the stoppage ending the race,

the Electric Motorcycles Suppliers reverted to the last lap, and the win went to Spanish teen Aron Canet, a mere 6/1000 second ahead of his team-mate Enea Bastiannini, who in turn just edged out Jorge Martin. Championship leader Joan Mir collected fifth after an early off-track excursion, leaving him still a healthy 64-point lead over Canet in the championship.

Rossi qualified second, led from the start until Dovizioso got by on the 16th lap of 20, and even after his team-mate also squeezed by he was in contention for the win. He’ll be replacing fellow Brit Sam Lowes, who’s going back to Moto 2 to replace Tom Luthi, who is joining the Moto GP Marc VDS Honda team. They worked well for him today; mid-race he caught and passed Honda’s Dani Pedrosa – who had a seriously forgettable weekend – and set off after Lorenzo but ran out of laps.

Early on it looked like the Marc VDS pairing of Franco Morbidelli and Alex Marquez were going to clear off and leave the field in the dust, but that all changed by half distance.
