Australian MotoGP: Marco Bezzecchi bags sprint win in Oz

[[{“value”:”

Aprilia rider Marco Bezzecchi hit a seagull, but still won a white-knuckle Australian MotoGP sprint race Saturday.

France’s Fabio Quartararo, riding his Yamaha, threw down the gauntlet in qualifying when he shattered Bezzecchi’s Phillip Island lap record set a day earlier to bank his fifth pole of the season. 

But the laser-focused Italian, starting from second, simply had too much power in his Aprilia to clinch his third sprint win in the last four races.
