Ducati and Aprilia hand Italy a historic top five lockout

That something was five Italian manufacturers finishing in the top five of a premier class race, thanks to Francesco Bagnaia (Ducati Lenovo Team), Maverick Viñales (Aprilia Racing), Jack Miller (Ducati Lenovo Team), Enea Bastianini (Gresini Racing MotoGP™) and Jorge Martin (Prima Pramac Racing). Miguel Oliveira (Red Bull KTM Factory Racing) was the first non-Italian factory rider to cross the line in sixth, while Alex Rins on board his Team Suzuki Ecstar machine was the leading Japanese manufacturer star in seventh.
