Francesco Bagnaia capitalised on Jorge Martin's cruel late crash to win the German MotoGP on Sunday and take control of the world championship.
Martin's dramatic departure from the Sachsenring stage gifted not only the race victory to Bagnaia but also the riders' standings."It wasn't easy," said Bagnaia, who was winning his fourth successive grand prix after Assen, Italy and Catalunya. His younger brother and current Ducati Gresini teammate Alex reflected:"It's a super amazing Sunday here, I gave everything.
'Pecco' then hunted down and went past his prey, Martin, on the following lap, but was unable to pull away and Martin was back in control of the race with 23 laps to go.
