Miller leads Ducati's double and Márquez finishes ninth in Jerez

Jack Miller took the victory in the MotoGP Spanish Grand Prix after the problems of a Fabio Quartararo who led much of the race, but sank and finished thirteenth. Pecco Bagnaia was second and becomes the new leader of the World Cup after the Devil could only add three points. For his part, Marc Márquez crossed the finish line in ninth position, 10 seconds behind Miller. Although it is a worse position, it is a better result than in Portimao since the difference with the first has been smaller. Marc Márquez started fourteenth on his return to Jerez. The man from Lleida acknowledged before the race, on the DAZN microphones, that he was not “in the best condition for a comeback” and that he was somewhat “bruised” by his crash on Saturday. This Sunday he also suffered another crash, this time at turn 4, in the warm up. His strategy was to go from less to more and not from more to less as he did in Portimao, the one from Cervera made a normal start and only gained a few positions in the first laps. His teammate, Pol Espargaró, surpassed him and placed tenth after the fall of Álex Rins with 23 laps to go. Meanwhile, at the head of the race, Miller placed first after a great start in which he managed to overcome Fabio Quartararo. However, the joy lasted very little. With 22 laps to go, the Diablo put the bike in and regained the first position despite the Australian trying to return the overtaking on the straight without success. He wanted to take advantage of the top speed of the Ducati but the Frenchman closed the spaces well for him. From there he began to throw the Yamaha one with everything he had to try to put some gap with Miller.Quartararo put dirt in the middle and everything seemed to be seen for sentence, but problems appeared at the end of the race and they began to take everyone. 11 laps from the end Miller caught up with the devil and, after passing the finish line, surpassed him. It was the beginning of the end, the beginning of an ordeal that sent him to the thirteenth position. Then, with eight laps to go, it was Bagnaia who overtook him and a few corners later his former teammate Franco Morbidelli did the same. Little by little they all arrived and were overtaking a Quartararo who was riding in Moto2 times, in this way Pecco Bagnaia positioned himself as the new leader of the MotoGP World Championship thanks to his second position in the race. Third was Morbidelli, fourth Nakagami, followed by Joan Mir who was the best Spaniard in the MotoGP Spanish Grand Prix. Marc Márquez could not star in a great comeback, as he had already warned at the start of the race, and could only be ninth just ahead of Pol Espargaró.
