Victory and overtaking. Augusto Fernandez imposes himself in the Moto2 race at Silverstone and crowns a double chase: on the track to Alonso Lopez, excellent second with the Boscoscuro and bent only with a great overtaking on the last lap; in the standings to Celestino Vietti, 6th and climbed to the top of the World Championship for the first time in the season.

amazing shape

–

The Spaniard of the Ajo team reaffirms his amazing form, third victory in a row and fourth of the last six races, and peremptorily triumphs: he climbs safely and in the final lap proves to be true in the lunge, without settling for a a placement that would have guaranteed him the championship leadership anyway. Chapeau. A great Alonso Lopez was beaten: mature, fast and grim, despite his limited experience in the middle class, and bent only by a champion maneuver a few folds from the finish line. On the podium, good third, Jake Dixon, who precedes Ai Ogura, now second in the world championship, 13 points behind Fernandez.

vietti defends itself

–

For Celestino Vietti a 6th place in defense behind the combative Aron Canet after serving a thrilling Long Lap Penalty: extreme bend, knee to the ground and Marquez-style saved bike by levering with the elbow. After the fear passed, the VR46 driver climbed from 12th to 6th place, limiting the damage in a complicated day. Worse went to Tony Arbolino, 12th after a hike in the grass to avoid Arenas’ bike stopped in the middle of the track after slipping.

the race

–

At the start Ai Ogura sprints well, who is passed by Alonso Lopez during the first lap. In evidence at the start Joe Roberts and Augusto Fernandez, while Tony Arbolino is eighth and Celestino Vietti 10th. Canet shoves his way, Vietti does the long lap with a shiver, risks losing his bike and saves himself by levering his elbow, and a quartet stands out in the lead. Lopez, Canet, Ogura and Fernanzez in fact stretch, chased only by Dixon. At the distance Lopez holds up, but behind him Fernandez rises impetuously, who in the last laps engages in a direct duel. Until the overtaking in the final that sets his perfect day.
