Another round of the MotoGP World Championship has concluded and it could hardly have gone better for Pecco Bagnaia, who managed to score the maximum points in Spielberg, thus reclaiming the overall lead.
With two wins in the two races held, Bagnaia accumulated 37 points this weekend and thus regained the lead in the championship in a prominent way. Jorge Martín, with two second places, scored eight points less than his opponent and thus conceded the first place to him.
Enea Bastianini solidified his position as third in the standings and gained points on Marc Márquez: he scored 22 points in Austria against the Spaniard’s 13, with the difference now being precisely 22 points.
Maverick Viñales remains in fifth place despite scoring fewer points than his teammate Aleix Espargaró, 9 points compared to #41’s 14, while Brad Binder is now the top KTM rider, surpassing Pedro Acosta: the South African scored 14 points and has a total of 128, compared to Acosta’s 125, who “only” scored three.
