*Rookie.

Aprilia’s 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Maverick Vinales has become only the fifth rider in history to officially win premier-class races on three different brands of bike - and the first of the post-2002 ‘MotoGP’ e🔯ra - after a stun♛ning recovery in the Americas Grand Prix at COTA.

The sprint winner and pole starter fought back from eleventh place after being bumped wide at Turn 1, in a race that saw rookie ༒star Pedro Aღcosta fighting at the front throughout and Marc Marquez fall moments after taking the lead.

Acosta went on to claim his💙 best-yet MotoGP result of second, while Enea Bastianini got the better of title leader Jorge Martinꦿ for third.

Bastianini’s factory Ducati team-mate and reigning world champio🅠n Francesco Bagnaia was among the early victory contenders before slipping to fifth.

It was Vinales' tenth MotoG❀P win but first since Qatar 2021 with Yamaha, after a debut victory 𝐆for Suzuki in 2016. He is the second rider to win on an RS-GP, after team-mate Aleix Espargaro.

Despite struggling in the Qatar opener, Vinales has now won all three r🍌aces he ha🌳s finished since, having retired from a podium place at Portimao due to a gearbox issue.

Unlike the Sprint, where al♈l riders chose the medium front and soft rear tyre, the grid was split between the soft and medium rear for the full 20-lap contest.

Some hectic early la🌺ps began with Acosta snatching the holeshot while Vinales was bumped wide at T𝕴urn 1 by Bagnaia, who had been forced to sit up by title leader Martin.

Vinales dropped to eleventh while the likes of Acosta, Bas🌞tianini, Jack Miller, Martin, Bagnaia and Marquez were soon slugging it out at the front.

▨Acosta put up a valiant defence of the lead, while Marquez lost a sidepod in a clash with Miller on his way towards the front, then clipped the back of race leader Martin after a lunge a꧙t the end of lap 5 of 20.

The blow-for-blow battles continued when Acosta plougheꦏd up the inside of Martin to regain the lead at the halfway mark. Marquez took advantage of the move to claim second - then passed Acosta to take the race lead for the first time as a Gresini Ducati rider…

But it all counted for nothing when the seven-time COTA winner𝔉 suddenly tucked the front at Turn 11 and slid into the gravel.

That put Acosta into the race lead but 💦with the charging Vinales now on his rear wheel. The Aprilia rider was clearly quicker, but the teenager kept the RS-GP at bay until 8 laps to go.

The unstable COTA subsoil meant there was a partial resurfacing ahead of this year’s MotoGP event, with new asphalt at turns 2, 9-1♏1, 12 and 16-19.

Revised tyre pressure rules for 2024 mean riders must now stay above a lower front minimum of 1.8 bar (instead of 1.88) for 60% (instea🌠d of 50%) of a Grand Prix distance, or 30% of a Sprint.

The penalty for꧑ failing to meet this minimum in a Grand Prix will be a 16-second post-race time penalty, or an 8-second penal⛦ty for a Sprint/short race.
