Dennis Foggia wants to continue the good run at the San Marino Grand Prix. The Italian Leopard driver dominated both free practice sessions on Friday at the home circuit, stopping the clock at 1: 42.009. Now that his situation at the Leopard seems fixed, he wants to end the season in style.
But it will not be easy. Pedro Acosta has stayed only 13 thousandths of Foggia. A sigh has separated the world leader from setting the best time on a circuit that he has been good at from the start. How I achieve a great result could be the final blow to the 2021 World Cup.
Hard crash for Darryn Binder, who ended up in the medical center
Like all morning, the rain has had a presence in the tests. They started with the track already dry, but a few drops have fallen throughout the session they serve as a prelude to what the whole weekend could be like. The worst possible scenario for the tension that the resolution of this world title will have.
Although the two top contenders have been far apart, and with an advantage for the leader. Acosta finished second, 13 thousandths behind Foggia, while Sergio García has only been able to sneak into the eighteenth position. And watch out for Foggia, because the Leopard is on a roll and he only needs one more failure from Acosta to get into the battle.
Third place for Romano Fenati, who suffered the misfortune of being involved in someone else's downfall at MotorLand and lost nearly all of his title options. At least the Italian is already the only rider on the entire Moto3 grid to have scored in every race, and he wants to continue to hold the record in San Marino.
In Misano, two pilots from the VR46, the Valentino Rossi academy, are racing as guests. It's about Matteo Bertelle and Elia Bartolini, and its results have been very surprising. In fact, the first of them finished in the sixth position of the combined, although Bartolini is further behind, twenty-second.
Between Fenati and Bertelle are two other Italians, Niccolò Antonelli and Andrea Migno. Serve as a demonstration of what you expect at Misano: five of the top six classified in Moto3 have been Italians, all except Acosta, and including a driver who is making his debut in this same race.
The ugliest incident of training has suffered Darryn Binder, who was hit very hard flying out of his Honda. Fortunately, the South African is fine, but has had to go through the Medical Center to receive appropriate care. We will see if it can be in the rest of the Grand Prix.
