Maverick Vinales wins at Phillip Island and Marquez extends his curse

Viñales returns to the top of the podium 29 careers after

Marc Marquez was hit by the bike of frenchman Johann Zarco

The tears of Maverick Viñales is still on the bike said it all. Then bite lips listening to the song, and kissed him with passion the trophy at Phillip Island. So he knew the sweet award in a difficult season, and so broke the Yamaha in the Grand Prix of Australia, their worst streak in the history of MotoGP. Were 25 tests without a win since you got Valentino Rossi in Assen 2017, too.

“I can finally enjoy, I have had a bad”, acknowledged after him, Andrea Iannone and Andrea Dovizioso on the podium. There might not be Marc Marquez, who has found a new challenge in her career: not to abandon after a win in Japan. Happened in 2014, 2016 and again on Sunday, by an ugly blow that shattered the rear of the bike. Johann Zarco took place after falling in the braking goal.

“I’ve gone wrong, I’ve never been able to give my 100%”, said reflective Movistar, the winner Viñales. “We have closed with Marc and Johann in the output, but I have started to trace and I have been aggressive. I have gone from tenth to first in five laps. I hope that Yamaha can see that can see that you can win with me and make me a bike a little more competitive next year”.

outstanding Leader from breaking up the race in the absence of 22 laps, when he said good-bye Marquez, only at the end had some problems in the rear tire that caused him to sweat out the win. But he calculated well and took care of the gums with mimo. Behind, the worked third place for Dovizioso allowed the Italian to extend the advantage on the runner-up position in respect to Rossi (sixth) of 9 to 15 points.

The start was exciting, with the ‘poleman’ Marquez being gobbled up by the Suzuki, the host of Miller and ‘Dovi’, which appeared as a plane. Shortly after, the Honda recovered the site and began to pull. A group of very large of more than eight riders will be put forward constantly, the race had no owner. Then came the crash of Zarco, very fast at the end of the straight when he caught the slipstream of the champion.

nearly 300 kilometers per hour, began to slow down, but ran into the back of the Honda and went to the ground. His bike hit the fairing of the bike of Marquez, who miraculously remained standing. Although he was able to return to the box, it was impossible to follow as well. “I’m not going to complain about Johann, it is an accident. With that speed you will note a lot of the slipstream and it has been difficult to stop the bike,” said Cervera, who received the apology of the French.

The good-bye from Marquez changed everything and behind Viñales were Rossi, Bautista, Dovizioso and Iannone. Further back, Dani Pedrosa fell to 16 from the end to close an end of week black. Iannone was placed second and Rins hooked up with the above, even went to Rossi. Viñales contained the nerves, but not the tears. With the championship decided, by the lucky accident of Zarco and Marquez remained an anecdote.
