Tatsuki Suzuki Wins Wet Argentinian Moto3 Race

Tatsuki Suzuki on Sunday won the Moto3 race of the Gran Premio Michelin de la Republica Argentina.

On a wet track, the Leopard Racing rider was unstoppable crossing first clear of KTM’s Diego Moreira and Andrea Migno.

Ayumu Sasaki, who started from pole position, was the fastest away and entered the first turn as the leader, but it was his teammate Collin Veijer, who started from seventeenth on the grid, who dropped far back in the grid.

However, at the first crossing, it was Deniz Oncu who held the lead ahead of Tatsuki Suzuki and Sasaki while Veijer had managed to gain a few places back and came through in twenty-fifth.

Oncu could not enjoy his leading position for long because the Red Bull KTM Ajo Moto3 rider crashed in turn eleven already in the third lap.

Suzuki then managed to pull away from the rest of the grid, while Veijer struggled at the back of the pack as anticipated and raced his own race, with his two class debutants Filippo Farioli and Jose Rueda right in front of him.

Suzuki maintained his lead at the front of the pitch while a pack of eleven riders fought hard for second place behind the Japanese.

With 8 laps to go, Ivan Ortola saw the end of his race, as did pole man Sasaki; both riders took a little too much risk and had to pay for it with a slider.

For a while, it looked like it would be a Leopard Racing 1-2, but with five laps to go, second place Jaume Masia found his target, followed on the same lap by Mario Aji, Xavi Artigas, and David Munoz.

Both Artigas and Munoz were able to pick up their machines immediately after the crash and resume their race.

Suzuki’s leading position was never in danger and it was the Japanese who crossed the finish line after 18 laps with a lead of almost five seconds over Moreira.

However, after both David Almansa and Riccardo Rossi crashed in the battle for this position, the MT Helmets-MSI rider was not given this as a reward.

Migno crossed the finish line in third ahead of Scott Ogden and Daniel Holgado. Ogden was penalised with a six-second penalty and a double longlap penalty for the next race due to the incident on the last lap. The Brit fell back to eleventh place on Sunday’s race.
