Maverick Viñales

lamented these days

because he did not understand what happened on Sundays, why he dominated practice and in the race he was "

a cone for the other drivers

."

"I go from being a beast on Saturdays to a kitten," he joked.

He couldn't find a way to gain grip on the rear wheel, or at least a way to compensate for it, and it was impossible for him to keep up with his head.

He finally achieved it on the return to Misano

, in a crazy race that only

13 drivers

finished

and where he himself benefited from a fall from

Pecco Bagnaia

.

The difference is that this time it was right there.

A few days ago, taking advantage of the fact that the World Cup was staying in Italy, Maverick stopped by the famous

Ranch that Valentino Rossi has 15 kilometers from Misano

.

It is an old farmhouse with a 'dirt track' circuit where he trains with the

eight Italian riders

from his academy, including Bagnaia, and where other rivals usually pass.

Marc Márquez

, when the relationship was different, was also seen there sometime.

For Viñales and his team, it was a way to release all the tension they accumulated after four very difficult Sundays.

It worked judging by the result.

The team found the ideal 'set up' and Viñales, this time yes, was a

beast the whole weekend

.

Pole on Saturday and triumph on Sunday, even if it was with a point of luck.

Bagnaia, who was second last week and who had broken the circuit record this Saturday, went to the ground when he pulled to stretch the gap to two seconds.

Maverick, who was fighting from behind, found triumph in his hands.

It is the first of the season and the one that puts him fully into the fight for a World Cup that he does not find a favorite: he places second with 83 points, tied with

Fabio Quartararo

, just one

behind Andrea Dovizioso

and only three above

Joan Mir

, who once again earned a place in the drawer in the last laps of the race.

Pol Espargaró

, benefited from a penalty to Quartararo, completed the podium.

It took seven races to see the first Spanish victory, but it came with a full.
