Rins wins Aragon MotoGP
Alex Rins held off compatriot Alex Marquez to win the Aragon MotoGP on Sunday with another Spaniard Joan Mir finishing third to take the championship lead from Fabio Quartararo.
Rins gained his first victory at MotoGP and is the eighth winner in this season’s ten races.
Rins took the lead from Vinales at the final corner on lap eight, with the Yamaha rider falling into the clutches of the sister Suzuki of Mir after a brief tussle five tours later.
The lead for Rins stood at 1.1 seconds following this, but Mir was able to close the gap with Marquez in tow.
