Outstanding victory for Italtrans Racing Team with Enea Bastianini in Jerez
The first all-Italian podium in Moto2 history is signed by Italtrans Racing Team with the outstanding victory of Enea Bastianini. A dream comes true.
That of Bastianini in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain, third round of a magical season, was a precise and perfect race, with a desired and deserved victory.
Starting from the front row of the grid with the third best time set yesterday at the end of an excellent qualifying session, Enea immediately took the lead of the race, with a clean overtake on Bezzecchi, maintaining the first position for all the 23 laps until the chequered flag. Thanks to an amazing pace, he pushed from the start, finishing almost three seconds ahead of Marini. An outstanding performance.
Bastianini is now second in the standing, just 2 points behind Nagashima, while the team is third in the team standing.
What a victory! I’m so happy. This morning in the warm up I was fast and in race I gave my best from the start because I knew I could win. I pushed from the first lap and in the last few I kept the advantage over Marini. Thanks to the team for the great job!
