FOUR OUT OF FIVE CATS

RIDER: Marco Bezzecchi BIKE: Aprilia RS-GP PHOTO: Aprilia Racing COMMENT: Aprilia has put the cat amongst the pigeons in MotoGP, with four out of the first five finishers aboard its RS-GP, with just a lone KTM on the podium. Ducati’ s first finisher was Fabio Di Giannantonio in 6th after Marc Marquez suffered a rim failure hitting a kerb. Whether Thailand’ s particular conditions are the reason for the Noale factory’ s dominance, remains to be seen.
