While Marc Marquez further extended his lead in the world championship with 270 points, Alex Marquez ranks second with 230 points. Francesco Bagnaia, the Italian local hero, remains in third place with 160 points – already 110 points behind the leader.
Disappointment for Bagnaia – home race without a podium finish
For Francesco Bagnaia, the Mugello weekend was different from previous years. After three wins in a row, the vice world champion had to settle for fourth place this time. After just a few laps, the Ducati rider complained of a loss of front wheel grip. Despite a spirited battle against the Marquez brothers and an energetic overtaking maneuver at the start, he lacked the decisive confidence in the front end as the race progressed. Recurring problems with grip and handling of the GP25 caused frustration: “We always say we have to change something – but nothing happens,” said Bagnaia.
With three laps to go, the Italian also lost his podium place to Di Giannantonio. The disappointing result at Mugello reflects Bagnaia’s difficult season so far. As things stand, his title chances are now only theoretical.
Vinales: Podium chance ruined by Morbidelli crash
Maverick Vinales, the fastest KTM rider, had a strong race and fought for a top-three finish for a long time. The Spaniard was at the front of the chasing pack for the first time this season and was convinced he had the potential to finish on the podium. However, on lap 9, he was crashed out by Franco Morbidelli as the two battled for fourth place. “It was the first time I was leading a race and was able to conserve my tires. That’s a very good sign,” Vinales summed up positively despite his bad luck.
Morbidelli accepted the long-lap penalty imposed on him, but did not complete it correctly and therefore had to do the penalty lap a second time. The Italian still finished the race in sixth place, but was disappointed to have missed out on a podium finish. “The final result frustrates me a little,” said Morbidelli.
Aprilia: Bezzecchi dreams of the podium, but Ducati remains out of reach
Marco Bezzecchi secured Aprilia’s best result with fifth place. He had already raised hopes of a podium finish in practice, but in the race he had to acknowledge that the Ducati riders were able to pick up the pace at the end. “The Ducatis can just pick up the pace again in the last six or seven laps. They still have something up their sleeves. Their bike is more stable. I’m always clearly at the limit when I try to follow them,” Bezzecchi explained after the race. With second place at Silverstone, fifth place remains his second-best result of the season so far.
Pedro Acosta: Tire choice as the sticking point
Pedro Acosta finished the race in eighth place and was self-critical after crossing the finish line. The Spaniard had opted for a hard front tire, expecting higher temperatures, and paid dearly for this decision during the race. “It was my decision to start like that – and it was a mistake. We had bet on full sun and even higher temperatures. At first, it looked like that would be the case, but then it clouded over, and with that, the performance of the front tire declined,” Acosta analyzed. Despite the mixed result, he remains the best KTM rider in the World Championship standings with 84 points.
