Pecco paints a masterpiece to defeat Quartararo at Mugello
Ducati take back their turf as another 63 vs 20 chess match lights up Tuscany, with Aleix Espargaro making another little piece of history in third
Sunday, 29 May 2022
Pecco is back on top! In another classic 63 vs 20, Francesco Bagnaia (Ducati Lenovo Team) was back to his flawless winning ways at the front of the field in the Gran Premio d’Italia Oakley, bouncing back in style from a crash out in France. Fabio Quartararo (Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP™) nevertheless gave it everything he had, stalking the Ducati rider for the majority of the race after the two picked their way to the front. In taking second, ‘El Diablo’ also extends his lead in the Championship.
Aleix Espargaro (Aprilia Racing) came through into third for his fourth podium in a row, giving Aprilia some home turf glory and becoming only the third rider on the grid, along with Marc Marquez (Repsol Honda Team) and Andrea Dovizioso (WithU Yamaha RNF MotoGP™), to have taken four or more premier class podiums in a row.
Ducati had swept the top five in qualifying but, rather than the slightly more accustomed Bagnaia being on the front row, it was rookie Fabio Di Giannantonio (Gresini Racing MotoGP™) starting from pole, fellow rookie Marco Bezzecchi sitting second and Mooney VR46 Racing teammate Luca Marini alongside. Di Giannantonio made a good launch and emerged with the lead from San Donato despite an attack from the VR46 duo, but Marini got past as they turned into Materassi as Bezzecchi slotted into third at the start of the 23 laps that lay ahead.
Bezzecchi overtook Di Giannantonio through Scarperia/Palagio, before Quartararo snatched fourth spot back from Aleix Espargaro on Lap 2 after the Aprilia rider had made a bold move down the hill on the opening lap. Quartararo was third when he slipped by Di Giannantonio at Scarperia/Palagio on Lap 2, but he had a serious challenge on his hands to try and keep the Ducatis at bay given the power they had on tap up the main straight.
A new Ducati threat then emerged when Bagnaia, who had been shuffled back to ninth on the opening lap, got through on Aleix Espargaro for fifth on Lap 4. However, Quartararo was also on the march as he slipped past Marini later on that same lap, promoting ‘El Diablo’ to second.
Bagnaia slipstreamed past Di Giannantonio as Lap 4 became Lap 5, and then pulled off a big move the next time he charged up the hill towards San Donato, passing both Quartararo and Marini to move into second. ‘Pecco’ was in the lead after he overtook Bezzecchi at the start of Lap 9, while Quartararo relied on superior turning to pass the VR46 Ducati rider at Scarperia, on Lap 11. The stage was set and so began the see saw at the front. 1.2, 1 second, 1.1, 0.9… the two pounded on at the front.
Meanwhile, Di Giannantonio’s charge began to fade and Aleix Espargaro again found himself in the top five, just behind a battle between VR46 teammates Bezzecchi and Marini. Enea Bastianini (Gresini Racing MotoGP™) and Johann Zarco (Prima Pramac Racing) caught that bunch around 13 laps in, but the former was then out of the race when he tucked the front through Materassi, on Lap 14. Rider ok, standings taking a dent.
Aleix Espargaro finally got back through to fourth as he went down the inside of Marini on Lap 14 at Correntaio, and Zarco relegated #10 to sixth position at the start of Lap 17. Then, Aprilia’s ‘Captain’ got ahead of the next impressive VR46 hurdle with a pass of Bezzecchi at Scarperia on lap 17.
While that was elbows out, Quartararo was starting to make inroads on Bagnaia’s margin. ‘El Diablo’ brought the gap back under a second with around half a dozen laps to go and was able to keep it there, but then the Ducati rider was able to respond. It was back out to 1.1 with a lap to go, and by the time he crossed the line for an emotional win, it was just over half a second. And those 25 points put Pecco fourth, 41 points off Quartararo.
Aleix Espargaro, meanwhile, finished just under two seconds further back, while Zarco passed Bezzechi on the final lap to claim fourth. Marini made it VR46 bikes fifth and sixth, while Brad Binder (Red Bull KTM Factory Racing) proved once again that he is the ‘Sunday man’ by climbing from 16th on the grid to seventh all-told, and only a couple of tenths off the VR46 battle.
Rounding out the top 10 were Takaaki Nakagami (LCR Honda Idemitsu), Miguel Oliveira (Red Bull KTM Factory Racing), and – in his last race before surgery on his right arm – Marc Marquez (Repsol Honda Team).
It took a video review to decide 11th position, in favour of Di Giannantonio, after he and Maverick Viñales (Aprilia Racing) has initially posted identical race times. Jorge Martin (Prima Pramac Racing) finished 13th, Alex Marquez (LCR Honda Castrol) took 14th, and Jack Miller (Ducati Lenovo Team) scored the last World Championship point in 15th. The non-finishers in addition to Bastianini were Pol Espargaro (Repsol Honda Team), who crashed out on Lap 5, and Team Suzuki Ecstar duo Joan Mir and Alex Rins, who both went down in separate incidents on Lap 8. Rins’ crash was after contact with Nakagami, but the incident was reviewed and no action taken.
In the World Championship, Quartararo’s lead over Aleix Espargaro has crept up to eight points, while Bastianini is now 28 points off the pace in third spot. And Pecco is on the march…
Can he make up more ground when MotoGP™ heads to the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya for the Gran Premi Monster Energy de Catalunya? Find out next weekend!

Italian GP: Pecco Bagnaia and Ducati triumph in their home Grand Prix at Mugello
It was another dream Sunday for Pecco Bagnaia and Ducati, who scored their second win of the season in front of their home crowd at the Autodromo Internazionale del Mugello. The Italian rider, who started from fifth on the grid, did an incredible race in the MotoGP Italian GP this afternoon at the Tuscan track.
Eighth on the first lap, the Ducati Lenovo Team rider wasted no time, and, after passing Johann Zarco, Brad Binder, Aleix Espargaro and Fabio Di Giannantonio, he was then able to slip past both Luca Marini’s Desmosedici GP and Fabio Quartararo’s Yamaha in a single move, moving up into second. After four laps, Pecco finally passed Marco Bezzecchi as well, gaining the lead of the race, where he stayed until the end, managing his advantage over the Championship leader Quartararo, who finished second. Thanks to today’s result, Bagnaia moves up to the fourth position in the overall standings, 41 points behind the Frenchman. Ducati increases its advantage in the Constructors’ Championship to 59 points, and the Ducati Lenovo Team is now second, just 7 points behind the leader in the Teams’ classification.
On the other hand, Jack Miller finished an unlucky race, only fifteenth. As he got off from the fourth row, the Australian rider had a difficult start, ending up on the grass in an attempt to immediately recover positions. Twenty-second on the first lap, Miller tried to make a comeback but struggled to find his rhythm. After today’s race, Jack drops back to eighth in the Championship, 18 points behind his teammate.
Francesco Bagnaia (#63 Ducati Lenovo Team) – 1st
“For us Italians, this is a very important race, so this is definitely a special victory. Mugello is a challenging track, but we worked all weekend perfectly to achieve this result, and we did it. Yesterday in FP3, I destroyed the bike, but my team worked so hard to allow me to use it today in the race, so I have to thank them! After the start, I found myself bottled up, and some riders passed me. I knew that by staying calm, I could make a comeback. I’m happy, and I think we really deserved this win.”
Jack Miller (#43 Ducati Lenovo Team) – 15th
“Starting so far back definitely didn’t help. After the start, I got trapped in the group and went on the grass at the first corner, finishing 22nd. From there, it was a comeback race. I managed to pass a few riders, although I struggled a lot to overtake. Then once I got behind Alex Marquez, I could never get close enough to attack him again. That’s how it went today, but luckily we’ll have another race soon to try to bounce back!”
Luigi Dall’Igna (Ducati Corse General Manager)
“I am thrilled: Pecco had a fantastic race today despite being very difficult! All weekend we were losing a lot in the third sector while we were strong in the rest of the track, and Pecco managed this advantage well to keep Quartararo at the proper distance. He ran an intelligent race, and I really congratulate him on this success. It’s a shame for Jack, who had more difficulty today as he started so far back. We stay focused on the next Grand Prix in Barcelona in seven days”.
The Ducati Lenovo Team riders will be back on track in less than a week, from 3 to 5 June, for the Catalan Grand Prix at the Circuit de Barcelona – Catalunya.

Heroic top ten double for Red Bull KTM after MotoGP™ Mugello rush
MotoGP 2022 – Round 08 of 20, Mugello (Italy) – Race
Red Bull KTM Factory Racing left the confines of the scenic and speedy Mugello circuit with both riders making substantial recoveries from their grid positions. It was Brad Binder who shone especially at a cloudy Gran Premio d’Italia Oakley for the eighth outing in MotoGP this year as the South African pulled from 16th up to 7th.
Binder takes 7th in Italy and just four seconds from the race winner
Oliveira captures 9th in a comeback from 15th on the grid
Remy Gardner is the first-classified runner for Tech3 KTM Factory Racing in 19th
Raul Fernandez crosses the finish line in 21st
The 36th Italian Grand Prix at Mugello finally settled on a cool and partially cloudy climate. The teams and riders had circulated the 5.2km venue during high heat and sunshine on Friday and Saturday morning before thunderstorms created a chaotic qualification period on Saturday afternoon. Miguel Oliveira and Brad Binder started the 23-lap race from the fifth and sixth rows of the grid with the Tech3 KTM Factory Racing duo a little further behind.
The change in the metrological conditions helped the crews manage tire choice and pressure for the high-paced chase and the threat of more showers did not arrive. It was Binder who made the better start at 14.00 on Sunday. The #33 bike ploughed through the group and into the top ten. Binder then charged hard to latch onto the bunch fighting for the last podium spot and reached the back of Luca Marini. He was less than two tenths of a second from the top six at the finish line and only four seconds from the victor Francesco Bagnaia.
Oliveira also rode brightly and with similar pace to his teammate. His 9th position was a mere 11 seconds from P1 and represented his first top ten classification since his 5th place in Portugal and his third of 2022. Tech3 KTM Factory Racing’s Remy Gardner completed the distance in 19th while Raul Fernandez was 21st after experiencing some rear tire issues.
The diverse collection of curves and challenges contained by the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya will be the stage for the Gran Premi Monster Energy de Catalunya next weekend followed by a one-day IRTA test.
Brad Binder: “It was a weekend full of ups-and-downs. It was a challenge to find something that I could understand and getting comfortable on the track wasn’t easy. After warm-up this morning however I had a clear idea of what I needed to do to make a step and have a good race. The team did a great job to give me that possibility. I felt strong, especially in the last ten laps. We still need to work on our speed and pace with new tires. I lost time at the beginning but could pull it back by the end. I’m also a bit frustrated today because I know we could have done a bit better than what we did. We just didn’t have the speed at the start but we do have a lot of data now from the changes we made this weekend and I hope that will help us for next weekend in Barcelona.”
Miguel Oliveira: “A nice race and we could be competitive. I found my rear grip dropping a lot, more than I expected and that affected my pace. I think I could have finished nearer the group ahead. Anyway, we got a top ten position and that was important for me and the team after the non-score in Le Mans. I am going to Barcelona motivated and eager to do better.”
Remy Gardner: “I am happy that I finished the race because I was feeling very good physically. Mugello is a very difficult track, and even in Moto2 last year, it was difficult. Today I was able to give my best at every lap, so I am happy with myself. The MotoGP bike is a big beast to ride so it was a positive step we made this weekend.”

Gresini
ENEA CRASHES OUT WHILE AT HIS BEST, DIGGIA AGAIN IN THE POINTS
Enea Bastianini’s comeback drew to a close with ten laps to go as the Italian rider lost the front-end of his Ducati machine at turn four and found himself – uninjured – in the gravel. This is quite a disappointing result as the #23, who was the only rider with a soft rear tyre, was able to recover six places after what was surely not the best start to the encounter. Today’s DNF has a big impact in his championship situation, but with Montmeló around the corner there will be a chance to make amends.
Fabio Di Giannantonio’s result has a completely different taste, as the MotoGP rookie was starting from pole position in this year’s #ItalianGP. The #49 of Team Gresini Racing MotoGP was able to hold the pressure in the early stages and stay towards the front. He was eleventh at the finish line, his so-far best result in the premier class as he adds more points to his tally after the ones scored in Le Mans.
DNF ENEA BASTIANINI #23 (3rd in the championship standings with 94 points)
“It’s a shame: we had a great pace, and I was fast. Unfortunately, I got sucked into by Aleix’s slipstream and got a bit too quick into turn four, and that led to my front-end tuck. With clear track ahead I was really fast, while it’s always hard in the slipstream at Mugello.
11th – FABIO DI GIANNANTONIO #49 (20th in the championship standings with 8 points)
“First of all, it’s great to start on pole at Mugello and lead on the opening lap. That and the Mugello crowed were really impactful on this experience. Too bad for the race, as I think a faulty tyre made things a bit more difficult. I never found the same feeling I had throughout the weekend and I struggled in keeping the bike stable. We could have stayed in the second group and battle for 7th/8th place, but we still made another step forward.”

Yamaha
QUARTARARO RIDES TO MASTERFUL SECOND PLACE AT MUGELLO
GRAND PRIX OF ITALY
RACE
Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP‘s Fabio Quartararo fought like a lion today to take a brilliant second place at the Gran Premio d’Italia Oakley. The result extends his championship lead by 4 points to 8 points in total. Franco Morbidelli also showed fighting spirit in his and the team‘s home race. Completing the opening lap in 24th place, he clawed his way up the ranks to finish in 17th.
Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP‘s Fabio Quartararo rode his Yamaha YZR-M1 to a magnificent second place at the Autodromo Internazionale del Mugello, extending his championship lead to 8 points. Franco Morbidelli had to recover from a less than desirable opening sector but did so with fortitude. He rode from last place after the first corner to 17th across the finish line.
A strong start from Quartararo from P6 saw him storm towards the first corners side by side with the five riders starting ahead of him. The Frenchman gained a place, and despite a brief exchange of position with Aleix Espargaró he completed the first lap in fifth place.
El Diablo was on the charge. He bravely overtook multiple rivals and moved into second place on lap 4. He used the nimble character of the YZR-M1 to the fullest in the twisty parts of the circuit and made his bike as wide as possible on the straights. However, he still had to let Francesco Bagnaia pass. But with 18 laps to go, Quartararo knew that if he could stay with the leading two riders, the race might come towards him in the final stages because the Yamaha man was on the hard rear tyre.
On lap 11 he launched his first attack on Marco Bezzecchi and made it stick. Back in second position, he chased Bagnaia whilst still having to keep Bezzecchi and Luca Marini at bay. After several closely contested laps, he managed to break away from the Mooney VR46 riders. Though he wasn‘t able to close the gap to first, he celebrated second place and a four-point extension of his lead in the championship standings as he crossed the finish line, 0.635s from first.
Morbidelli didn‘t have the start he had hoped for. Launching from P23 on the grid, he found himself in last place after Sector 1. The only way was up, and so the home hero rolled up his sleeves and got to work. He made up five places, and with three other riders retiring from the race, the Italian settled into 18th place by lap 8.
The number-21 rider focused on his rhythm and was able to catch up with Michele Pirro. After Enea Bastianini crashed, Morbidelli was fighting for 16th position and he passed Pirro on lap 21. The gap to the rider ahead of him was too big for the Italian to bridge in the final few laps, and at the finish line he was pipped to the post by Darryn Binder. He ended the race in 17th place, 20.296s from first.
Today‘s results see Quartararo remain in the lead of the championship standings and increase his points total to 122, while Morbidelli is now in nineteenth with 19 points. After Round 8, Yamaha remain second with 122 points in the Constructor championship and Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP continue to hold third position with 141 points in the Team championship.
The team will be back in action next week for the Gran Premi Monster Energy de Catalunya at the Circuit de Catalunya-Barcelona, held from 3-5 June.
MASSIMO MEREGALLI
TEAM DIRECTOR
This second-place finish from Fabio is a fantastic achievement! It tastes almost like a victory, especially here! And it‘s even more impressive because Fabio wasn‘t feeling very confident this morning. To turn things around 180° – what a rider! This podium is a testament to how hard the team works until the very last minute to strive for the best results. Franco was starting from P23 on the grid and didn‘t have a good start. That is very tough to come back from, but he pushed on. He was able to recover some positions, but his overall result doesn‘t reflect his potential. We now move on to Barcelona. The Catalan GP and our team share a Title Sponsor: Monster Energy. We are highly motivated after today‘s podium to also give it some welly there!
FABIO QUARTARARO
I didn‘t think that the podium was possible today. But before the race I believed in myself and said ’I have the pace to be in the top 5 today‘ and we did a second place. That was, I think, one of the best races of my career. Of course, I would have preferred to win, but I‘m pleased to be on the podium after a tough race like this one. I made a good start and did good overtakes, despite sliding with the front and rear. Before the race I wasn‘t feeling that good on the bike. During the race it was not perfect, but it was better, and I could feel where the limit was. I love riding my bike, I was having a lot of fun, and I could get a really good result. We did a massive job!
FRANCO MORBIDELLI
Starting from the 23rd position was tough, but I caught up with the riders in front of me fighting. I was in 16th position. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to get into the group fighting for the points. Darryn Binder was behind me all of the race but then used the slipstream to overtake me by 0.031s at the finish line. But overall we made some improvements. We’ll try to improve other things in Barcelona.

LCR Honda
TAKA THE LEADING HONDA RIDER AT THE ITALIAN GP
30 May 2022 | Italian GP Race
Takaaki Nakagami finished as the leading Honda bike in the Italian Grand Prix as he continued his impressive recent form at Mugello. The LCR Honda IDEMITSU rider claimed 8th position in Sunday’s MotoGP race, fighting back in the latter stages to secure a third consecutive top-10 result after his seventh places in France and Jerez.
The Japanese rider showed his traditional pace in warm-up as he was fifth fastest and then made a solid start to the race as he maintained his position having started from the third row. He lost some ground over the opening laps, dropping back to 12th, but finished strongly, passing Marc Marquez and polesitter Fabio Di Giannantonio amongst others to take eighth behind the leading pack.
Takaaki Nakagami – 8th
“It was a really tough race, especially at the beginning when it was difficult to find good speed and I lost a couple of positions. I dropped to P12, but then in the second part of the race I overtook Marc (Marquez), (Fabio ) Di Giannantonio and Oliveira. Those two laps in a row were really good riding and at the end we were able to finish P8, so another top-10. Top Honda is a really good result for us, but we still need to improve the bike performance. Let’s see what we can do at the next race at Montmelo.”

Suzuki
SUZUKI READY TO FIGHT BACK AFTER TOUGH MUGELLO MOTOGP
Team Suzuki Press Office – May 29.
Alex Rins: DNF
Joan Mir: DNF
The Italian GP ended in disappointment for Team Suzuki Ecstar as both riders suffered falls on Lap 8 of the race at the Autodromo Internazionale del Mugello.
Despite struggling to find feeling throughout the demanding weekend, and qualifying a long way down the grid, Joan Mir and Alex Rins felt determined to gain as many positions as possible. The lights went out shortly after a stirring rendition of the Italian national anthem rang out around the Tuscan hillsides, and Rins was quick to build up pace, slotting into 15th on the first corners. By the fifth lap of the race Rins was up into 13th and Mir was running in 17th.
As Mir began to settle into a rhythm and look to gain more places on Lap 8, he suffered an unfortunate off at Turn 1, ‘San Donato.’ Although it’s a fast place to crash, he was fortunately uninjured. Just moments later, on the same lap, his team-mate Rins was also down and out – this time at Turn 12 – when a collision with another rider ended his hopes of scoring points.
The team will move directly onto the ninth round of the season, which will take place next weekend at the Circuit of Barcelona-Catalunya; a favoured spot for both riders.
Alex Rins:
“I was unlucky today, because I was gaining positions and feeling good, but then I was taken down by another rider. For me the move was too aggressive, and I went to Race Direction to express my concerns. On the previous lap between corners 10 and 11, I overtook Nakagami and he opened the throttle and blocked me. The next lap he did the same; he came round the outside and then we collided. Luckily, I’m not injured, but it was a shame for me. The next race is at a track I really like, I want to enjoy it, and we all want to return to form and show what we can do.”
Joan Mir:
“This has been one of the worst races in my top class career, because I never managed to achieve the right feeling and it’s a real pity. I came to Mugello feeling very optimistic and we’ve been competitive here in the past, but things changed and it was the opposite to what I expected. Unfortunately I crashed out today, whilst braking a bit late on angle after taking a slipstream, but I’m OK. Now we need to investigate everything in detail before moving onto Barcelona, where I want to recover my feeling and achieve something nice.”
Livio Suppo – Team Manager:
“It was a very difficult weekend, with neither of our riders finishing the race. For sure, this is not what we expected, but we’re glad that Joan and Alex are both fine. It’s also a good thing for us that we’ll go straight to Barcelona because we can forget this weekend quickly and set our sights on achieving something great at a circuit the riders like.”
Ken Kawauchi – Technical Manager:
“We arrived here with a lot of confidence, but things never really went according to plan, especially in qualifying. Because we started far down the grid, it meant that the race was also a struggle, and it was hard for the riders to recover positions. It’s a tough moment for us to have two more DNFs after Le Mans, and it’s difficult to accept. But we won’t give up and we’ll try again next week in Catalunya.”
