The main race of MotoGP’s Czech Grand Prix is set to take place later today (20 July) after a dramatic and unpredictable sprint on Saturday.
It saw the factory Ducati duo of Marc Marquez and Francesco Bagnaia hampered with tyre pressure problems, though the Spaniard ultimately won the contest.
Marc continues to lead the standings with 356 points, while younger brother Alex Marquez sits in second with a tally of 261. Bagnaia completes the top three with 200 points.
Bagnaia starts the grand prix from pole and will be hoping to not have the electronic woes that plagued his challenge in the sprint race.
However, Marc starts alongside in second and his pace in the sprint was undeniable. Like Bagnaia, he also had tyre pressure problems but for different reasons, so the Ducati duo will be hoping to eradicate any such worries in today’s main race.
It’s worth keeping an eye on the KTMs too, as both Pedro Acosta and Enea Bastianini showed impressive speed on their way to second and third place in the sprint race.
