Race report
Spectacular race to say the least, the one that took place in Moto3 at Mugelloespecially in the leading group consisting of five pilots who didn’t spare fights and overtaking from the first to the 17th and last lap, up to the last meter of the Tuscan circuit. Precisely at this point, in fact, the victory was decided Daniel Holgadowhich narrowly denied the other KTM’s success Deniz Oncü at the end of a thrilling last lap. A GP without, at least in the top positions, great protagonists of the world championship such as Diogo Moreira, penalized at the end of yesterday’s qualifying with a start from the back of the grid complete with a long lap penalty, together with other riders, for irresponsible driving. The start, on the other hand, was in fact the prediction of the show that all the enthusiasts then had the opportunity to watch up to the last metre, with a five-way fight between the aforementioned Holgado and Öncü, joined by Masia, Sasaki and Alonso. A continuous alternation of overtaking, counter-overtaking and changes at the top of the standings which continued from the first laps to the last, all this in a group distanced from the rest of the grid, which played a separate race for the second half of the Top-10. The track points that proved to be decisive for the final classification were the finish straight and braking into the first cornerthe San Donato, where the highest number of overtakings took place, without excluding all the others that also occurred in other sections of the track. In the end, it was Holgado who had the upper hand, able to take advantage of Öncü’s slipstream in the final meters of the last lap, conquering his third success of the season after those obtained in Portugal and in the last round in France.
Deniz was this close to his first-ever victory 💔😢

A success, obtained by just over 50 thousandths of a second, which also allowed the Spaniard to increase his lead in general classification on compatriot Masià, now 2nd in the championship but 35 lengths behind. Top-10 which finally closed with the presence of two Italians such as Riccardo Rossi and Stefano Nepa, respectively in eighth and ninth position. On the other hand, bad luck for Romano Fenati, who was forced to start from the pit lane after a technical problem on the starting grid. Finally, however, the conditions of Filippo Farioli remain to be understood, who crashed during the second lap after a contact with Xavier Artigas and was transported on a stretcher to the medical center of the racetrack.
