After waiting over 1,000 days for his first Ducati win, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez has claimed his second in a week with a surprise victory in the San Marino MotoGP.

Saying he had 'destroyed' his weekend after a qualifying crash left him ninth on the grid, the Gresini Ducati rider capitalised on a brief 🔴rain shower to snatch the race lead.

Marquez then kept cle꧋ar of reigning champion Francesco Bagnaia and the sister factory Du▨cati of Enea Bastianini to the chequered flag.

"Maybe Fausto [Gresini] sprinkled so🔴me rain," Marquez said in parc ferme, pointing to the heavens.

Meanwhile, much of Jorge Martin’s title advantage was wiped out when 𒁏a pit-stop decision backfired, leaving the Sprint winner a lap down.

Bagnaia had avoided yesterday’s clutch slip to keep the lead into Turn 1, with Martin slotting into third behind team-mate🦩 Franco Morbidelli.

Martin swiftly passed Morbidelli but a tentative attempt to dive under Bagnaia on lap 2 almos𒁏t e🐻nded in disaster.

Backing out just in time, 🌳Martin stayed patiently behind Bagnaia until the rain drops suddenly intensified after🅷 7 of 27 laps.

Morbidelli was the first victim, crashing out of third, while Martin made 🌸a huge call to pit at the end of the lap - despite Bagnaia, and the rest of the frontrunners, staying out.

Bagnaia backed off, creating a long train of r﷽iders, with Marc Marquez slicing throuཧgh the pack to lead.

Crucially, the ✱rain cleared, leaving Martin 12-seconds down in 15th♏ place, on wets.

The Spaniard realised it was a los🍌t cause and, like others that had gambled on the rain increasing, pitted for slicks again on lap 10.

Martin re-joined a lap down, j𒐪ust behind the Marquez-Bagnaia victory battle and finished 15th.

Bagnaia was content to follow the Gresini ride൲r throughout the middle stages but looked in danger of being hunted down b❀y Bastianini.

Riding sore from last Sunday’s Aragon collisi🌌on with Alex Marquez, Bag🌸naia dropped back from Marquez in the closing stages with Bastianini settling for a safe third.

Brad Binder, front-row starter Marco Bezzecchi an🦹d Alex Marquez completed the top six.

Jack Miller used the slick conditions to rise as high as third during the rain shower before being relegated to 🅰eighth, just behind the Yamaha of Fabio Quartararo.

KTM rookie Pedro Acosta went on the early attack but lost a wing in contact with Morbidelli and later crashed from 4th, re-joiningꦯ at the back of the field.

There were no Repsol Hon❀das on this afternoon’s grid after 🔴Luca Marini joined team-mate Joan Mir is being sidelined by sickness.

Pol Espa🦩rgaro was making his third race weekend𝓀 appearance of the season for KTM, with HRC test rider Stefan Bradl also entered as a wild-card this weekend.

Misano is hostin🔯g two consecutive MotoGP rounds this season, starti൩ng with this weekend’s San Marino Grand Prix.

An Official MotoGP test takes place on Monday before a return to the Italian circuit for the ‘Emilia Romagna’ round,🌠 in place of India/Kazakhstan, on September 20-22.

Revised tyre pressure rules for 2024 meღan riders must stay above a lower front minimum of 1.8 bar (instead of 1.88) for 60% (instead of 50%) of a Gr🌼and Prix distance, or 30% of a Sprint.

The penalty for failing to meet this minimum in a Grand Prix will be a 16-second post-race time penalty, or an 8-seco🦂nd penalty🍎 for a Sprint/short race.

However, tꦯhe raindrops meant the tyre pressure system was not active for today꧋'s race.
