Even if Ducati’s Enea Bastianini had been slapped with a penalty for his aggressive overtake on Jorge Martin, it wouldn’t have altered the race outcome. Despite the heated battle, Martin’s chaotic approach—desperately throwing gestures to everyone and to everything, in the final moments he was crawling to the finish line more concerned with showing his frustration than finishing the race and with that cost him over five seconds and ensured Bastianini’s victory was never truly under threat.
Martin’s aggressive style backfired as he struggled to maintain his pace in the final laps, and his defensive maneuvers only added to his woes.

Bastianini’s triumph was sealed not just by his skill but by his aggressive, proving that sometimes, the fiercest battles are fought within.
