Marc Marquez was, like we all expected I think, the best man in the qualifications. Surprisingly 2nd A. Dovizioso (Ducati), followed by Lorenzo.
The start was very good for Dovizisio on his brand new bike, who took the lead. But already in the first turn, The Doctor passed him and took the role of the leader in itself. The 27 laps of excitement and danger were begon.
Marc didn't stay in the background that long. He came back, but it seemed that it won't be his best race.
Very soon, it became clear that Lorenzo really wanted to win this race so he wasn't very scared to make some contact with the other riders. It started when the battle between Rossi and Dovizioso ended abruptly by hitting the wheels, which make them lost the right track so Marquez and Rossi could passthem and Marc was the first to see the way out, but he was closely chased by Rossi and Dovizioso. Eventually, Lorenzo could pass Dovizioso and made Vale and Marc a little bit nervous with all his attemps but he wasn't able to make them mad. On the contrary, Rossi crossed over Marquez, but it came out Marc was driving with hard tires so he started drifting and since that moment it became clear that there was nothing to do about it. The advance was growing lap after lap.
There was a collision between Bradl and A. Espargaro. Bradl was out and very disappointed and Espargaro was driving a damaged bike, but not for long.
Marc won with gusto. Lorenzo became 2nd and Rossi 3rd.
With his 10th in a row, Marc Marquez was the first MotoGP rider who broke the record of Michael Doohan since 1997 and Rossi was the first rider with 4000 premier class points.
The summer break has apparently pleased them!
