20 September 2020At Misano, the Emilia Romagna GP goes to the Spanish Yamaha Maverick Vinales ahead of Mir's Suzuki and Pol Espargaro's KTM.

Bagnaia starts from the fifth box, Rossi from the seventh ahead of Morbidelli, Petrucci and Dovizioso.
Crashes for Aleix Espargaro and on the second lap also for Valentino Rossi.
Great progression of Bagnaia that takes the lead.
In third position is placed Pol Espargaro and the trio tries to escape.
Quartararo is the first of the pursuers.
Bagnaia and Pol Espargaro are equipped with hard rubber on the front while Vinales has a double medium.
Important choices in view of the final phase.
Morbidelli found himself in the penultimate position because Aleix Espargaro, falling, hit him and was unable to get back up.
Problems also for Dovizioso who does not find the starting point.
Rossi who had tried to stay in the race is forced to drop out.
In the lead continues the pursuit of Vinales in Bagnaia.
The Spaniard presses and on lap 21 at turn 6 the Italian of the Ducati ends up on the gravel and goes down, the bike is demolished but the rider is fine: his dream of winning the first MotoGP race ends like this.
He tries to get under Quartararo but in the end Joan Mir comes out of arrogance who passes first Espargaro then Quartararo.
For the Frenchman on the last lap long lap penalty and loss of position on Espargaro.
Classification now very short with Dovizioso leader with 84 points, followed by Vinales and Quartararo with 83. Mir fourth at 80 points.
