Ducati's world champion Francesco Bagnaia produced a flawless display to dominate the Austrian MotoGP at Spielberg on Sunday, Aug. 20, and take another step towards a second successive title.
Ducati Lenovo Team Italian rider Francesco Bagnaia celebrates on the podium winning his first place at the MotoGP Austrian Grand Prix at the Red Bull Ring racetrack in Spielberg bei Knittelfeld, Austria, on Sunday, Aug. 20. For Bagnaia this was a third dream double weekend of the season after winning both Saturday's sprint and Sunday's main event.
For Binder it was another runner-up spot 24 hours after his sprint second in front of his Austrian KTM team's home fans."There was a moment when the rear grip said goodbye so I knew I had to be intelligent and bring the bike home and get on the podium twice this weekend."Bagnaia set off from pole for the grueling 28 laps in front of a 94,000-crowd braving blistering heat in the Styrian mountains.
That sluggish getaway thwarted the Aprilia rider's quest to make MotoGP history by winning a grand prix with three different teams after wins with Suzuki and Yamaha.
