Bagnaia takes third straight win, Quartararo storms to second

VIENNA, Aug 21 — Ducati’s Francesco Bagnaia made it three MotoGP wins in a row at the Austrian Grand Prix today, while world championship leader Fabio Quartararo stormed to second on his Yamaha with a late surge in Spielberg.

He became only the second Italian rider in the modern MotoGP era to win three consecutive races after Valentino Rossi, who retired last year after winning nine world titles. “When I looked at the gap, I tried to be very cautious with the time laps because I was sure that my pace was good enough to open the gap and in the last two laps, I just tried to be calm. I am very happy with my team, they have done an incredible job.” Starting second on the grid, Bagnaia made a lightning start at the Red Bull Ring as he overtook pole sitter Enea Bastianini of Gresini Racing on the opening lap.

Martin had looked set for a podium finish but he ran wide at the chicane on the 17th lap, surrendering third spot to Yamaha rider Quartararo, who started fifth on the grid.
