MOTOGP: Lorenzo snatches dramatic victory

Monday, May 23 2016 by SNTV
  • Yamaha's Jorge Lorenzo managed a last-gasp victory in the Italian MotoGP at Mugello on Sunday (22nd May).

    Home hero Valentino Rossi had a day to forget at the Italian MotoGP on Sunday, despite starting from pole.

    Firstly Rossi was overtaken by his Yamaha teammate Jorge Lorenzo, who enjoyed a lightning start to lead into the first corner.

    Then came a killer blow as Rossi's bike went up in smoke to end his race on lap eight.

    The drama was only just beginning as Lorenzo and Marc Marquez put on a thrilling show on the final lap.

    The pair traded places before Lorenzo was able to edge ahead on the straight to take the tightest of victories.

    Lorenzo stole victory by 0.019 seconds to extend his lead over Marquez in the drivers' championship to 10 points.
