As the race takes an interesting turn, can Jorge Martin up the ante and cause problems for Pecco Bagnaia, who ended lap 1 at a comfortable #1??
Martin was caught in the camera looking down at his rear tyre, probably because he thought there was a problem that he might have been facing. It seems that the evening truly turned out to be disappointing and disastrous for Martin.
Fans reacted to the epic final showdown?
But finally, with massive turn in events after the end of the final 22nd lap, Italian GrandPrix racer Fabio Di Giannantonio defying all expectations emerged as the race winner.
One of the users shared his personal opinion regarding the race and said that there was some faulty tire. He wrote that probably for the same reason he won the sprint but was slow at the final race.
This has got to be a faulty tyre. How can he win the sprint and then be this slow today? It makes no sense at all
