DOUBLE PODIUM AT MISANO AS MARTIN IS THE NEW SERIES LEADER  

A very satisfying weekend draws to a close at Misano for Team Del Conca Gresini Moto3with both standard bearers on the podium as Jorge Martinand Fabio Di Giannantonio are second and third, respectively, at the finish line of a heated Moto3 race.

The battle for the win went down to the wire, but the outcome could have gone a lot different in two separate occasions when first Canet and Bastianini and then Bezzecchi all crashed out of the race; both times the two Gresini Racing riders managed to avoid being taken out and therefore could play their cards at the last turn.

Jorge Martin crossed the line in second place at the end #SanMarinoGP encounter to claim 20 crucial points that allow the young Spaniard to return on top of the standings with an eight-point margin on Marco Bezzecchi. With 16 points under his belt today, Diggia stays in contention for the ultimate prize as he is now 29 points away from him team mate. 

2nd– JORGE MARTIN #88

“I must admit that after warm up I was not too confident as I wasn’t feeling too comfortable on the bike. Things imprtoved during the race, though: I saw that Enea and Canet were out of action so I saw it as an opportunity to pull away at least from them in the standings. Then Bezzecchi’s mistake has played to our advantage, obviously, even though I was almost going down myself.”

3rd– FABIO DI GIANNANTONIO #21

“It wasn’t an easy race, but we knew we had the potential for a very good result. I wish I could take a bit more points, but we’re getting closer to the top of the standings and a podium is always a good thing – especially at home!”
