Martin nailed the start but it was Bagnaia who emerged victorious in the Misano sprint
Factory Ducati rider Francesco Bagnaia emerged on top in a thrilling duel with Jorge Martin to take victory in the sprint for MotoGP's Emilia Romagna Grand Prix. Bagnaia made a slow launch after qualifying on pole, but showed scintillating pace to overtake Pramac rival Martin for the lead on lap 8 of 13 and score another crucial win over his title rival.
Fabio Quartararo was an impressive seventh for the resurgent Yamaha squad, which was down to one bike following team-mate Alex Rins' withdrawal due to the flu. The final points-paying positions went to the Ducatis of VR46 rider Marco Bezzecchi and the Pramac's Franco Morbidelli. Maverick Vinales finished as the lead Aprilia in 10th, missing a point by under three tenths of a second, while Honda's charge was led by Luca Marini in 16th.
