Intractable Fabio Quartararo.
The French rider (Yamaha) won his second Grand Prix of the season on Sunday in Catalonia.
A victory that allows the reigning world champion to consolidate his leading position in the MotoGP World Championship.
The Ducati Pramacs of the Spaniard Jorge Martin and the second Frenchman on the grid, Johann Zarco, accompany him on the podium.
Zarco notably took advantage of an incredible mistake by the Spaniard Aleix Espargaro (Aprilia), who believed the race was over with one lap to go when he was in third place, to steal the position from him.
What !!??
Aleix Espargaro stops too soon!!!!!
