## Franco Morbidelli finishes third in the Spanish GP and is his first finish in 2021



Morbidelli showed a huge amount of strength in the weekend MotoGP race, from the moment the lights went out to the finish flag. The Italian remained in second place, but dropped back to third in the fourth round. Although Franco moved away from the leading riders in the middle of the race and dropped to fourth place for a moment, he fought hard and began to close the gap in the last laps. He won his first podium finish of the season and moved up to eighth place in the World Cup with 33 points. On the other hand, his teammate Rossi did not have the best start and found himself in 20th place after losing three places. Unfortunately, Valentina was bothered by problems with the rear grip, he did not find the pace to get further forward and at the end of 25 laps he remained in 17th position at the finish flag.
