Marquez wins rainy San Marino GP to tie at top

Marc Marquez passed Danilo Petrucci on the final lap to win the rainy San Marino and Rimini Riviera Grand Prix in Italy yesterday and draw level with Andrea Dovizioso atop the MotoGP standings.

Ducati’s Petrucci had taken the lead 1/4th of the way through the race when teammate Jorge Lorenzo crashed spectacularly — but apparently without injury. Petrucci finished second and Dovizioso, also on a Ducati, was third. Lorenzo had a strong start, moving up immediately from fifth to first. There were multiple falls and six riders retired. Marquez, on a Honda, and Dovizioso each have 199 points, 26 ahead of Yamaha’s Maverick Vinales in third with five races remaining. It was Marquez’s fourth win of the season.
