An eighth place for Fabio Quartararo in the Aragon MotoGP Sprint came after an unlikely battle with Francesco Bagnaia.
Two years ago a battle between Francesco Bagnaia and Fabio Quartararo would have meant a battle for the championship. Bagnaia may have lost the points lead in the Aragon MotoGP Sprint, but he lost it to Jorge Martin, and his battle with Quartararo was over eighth.
“I made a great start,” Quartararo told MotoGP.com after the race. “Also, I see some riders that spin a lot in front of me, so I tried to jump on the opportunity to make a great start and to make the best. “But at least we took the opportunity for us to bring some smiles to the people in the box and to myself.”
