Maverick Vinales silences critics at Misano

The 2020 #MotoGP season is nothing less than a Hollywood movie, and you could not have scripted it any better. With only 7 laps to go in The Gran Premio TISSOT dell'Emilia Romagna e della Riviera di Rimini, huge drama unfolded as the race leader Pecco Bagnaia crashed his bike and his chances of a maiden win. From out of nowhere, Maverick Vinales took over the race with a comfortable 4 second lead and rode on to victory to silence his critics.
From P11 on the grid, Joan Mir worked his way up the order to finish 2^nd while Fabio Quartaro suffered a 3 second penalty for exceeding track limits, which in turn, paved the way for Pol Espargaro to finish 3^rd.
