It was tough year for him due to the injury, but he was able to wrap it up in style. It was a difficult end to what was an up-and-down season for Fabio, but he did quite well anyway this year. I\u2019m pretty sure next year our team is going to be even more competitive!\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>1<sup>st<\/sup> &#8211; JORGE MARTIN #88<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI wanted to pull away right from the start, but then Rodrigo tried to pass me and from then it was not easy. When I got back to the front and saw that I had a two-second gap I kept pushing until the end. It was not easy to stay fully focused but today \u2013 maybe for the first time this weekend \u2013 I did not make any mistake, and that never happened before. To win the last race of the season is truly amazing, but we will back on track in two weeks and we must work hard to try and get to the top in 2018.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>DNF \u2013 FABIO DI GIANNANTONIO #21<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were on the right path to finish the season on a high note, but we still had a bit of back luck chasing us. I was hoping to finish on the podium but I don\u2019t really know what happened on the straight: I can\u2019t even define what it was and I don\u2019t think it was 100% my fault, but in any case I crashed out and threw away a good chance for good race. Now we must keep our head down and work hard for next year.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After nine pole position and eight podium finishes, Jorge Martin took a well-deserved maiden Moto3 World Championship win today after a superb performance at Valencia\u2019s Ricardo Tormo Circuit \u2013 the&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":25346,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[24,26],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7332","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-moto3-en","category-race-report-moto3-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.3 -
