Marc wins it on wet track

-

DEFENDING MotoGP champion Marc Marquez scorched to his third win of the season when he won the Czech GP to increase his overall lead.

Starting on pole on a wet track, riders were allowed to swap their bikes for ones with tires suitable for dry conditions. Marquez was the first to do so, a strategy that paid off for him and secured his second-straight win.

The Spaniard used the speed of his Honda to take the lead with 18 laps to go. Dani Pedrosa was second, with Yamaha’s Maverick Vinales third.
