Rossi romps in Jerez

ITALIAN MotoGP great Valentino Rossi won the Spanish Grand Prix in Jerez yesterday with a dominant pole-to-flag ride for the 113th victory of his career in all categories.

The 37-year-old Yamaha rider kept Spanish teammate and reigning world champion Jorge Lorenzo comfortably behind him to take the checkered flag with his front wheel in the air in celebration.

It was his 87th win in the top class. Lorenzo was second for his 100th career podium with championship leader and compatriot Marc Marquez in third for Honda. After four of the season’s 18 races, Marquez has 82 points and Lorenzo 65. Rossi is third with 58.
