Rossi roars back
Print Edition
VALENTINO Rossi rolled back the years to win his sixth premier class Australian Grand Prix after world champion Marc Marquez’s cruise to a pole-to-flag victory was ended suddenly by a crash on lap 18 yesterday.
With a second successive MotoGP world title secured in Japan last week, 21-year-old Honda rider Marquez looked destined to match Mick Doohan’s record of 12 race wins in a single season when he led by four seconds. Ten laps from the end, though, he slithered along the asphalt and onto the trackside grass. Seven-time world champion Rossi finished ahead of Spaniard Jorge Lorenzo while Briton Bradley Smith was third in a Yamaha sweep.
