The Australian Senna Agius, of the Liqui Moly team, won in the Silverstone circuit, the first race of his life in the Moto2 World Cup, ahead of the Brazilian Diogo Moreira (Italtrans) and the Colombian David Alonso (CF Moto Aspar Team), current Moto3 champion.
The Colombian, born in Madrid in April 2006, but from Colombian mother and decided to run for our country, thus adds his first podium of the season in the intermediate category of the World Cup that serves to be fifteenth in the classification, 83 points from the leader, the Spanish Manu González (Liqui Moly).
This Sunday, in Silverstone, the Spanish Canet (Fantic) was the strongest during the race, but he could not close the test in some last madness curves and, in his fight with David Alonso for the victory, he was the pilot born 17 years ago in Cadem (Australia) who knew how to take advantage of the situation to release his palmrace in the mythical layout of the center of England.
At least, Canet has the comfort of having arrived in England 16 points from Manu González and located three only from the Moto2 World Cup leader.
Arón, who on Saturday did pole, took his head in the first laps with Moreira, Izán Guevara (Pramac Yamaha) second, Agius and Alonso. González left badly, eleventh, in the first step by goal.
With Manu so delayed, Arón was virtual leader of the championship at that time. González began his particular comeback, making the fourth turn the quick turn until he reached the seventh position. There was nothing left so that, trying to advance to the interior to the Belgian Barry Baltus (American Racing), they both went to the ground. Probably, Moto2 leader was harmed by the wind that blew this Sunday in Silverstone.
Meanwhile, Canet and Moreira achieved almost half a second compared to the trio formed Guevara, Alonso and Agius, who fought without a quarter between them through the third place and for rising the low advantage that Spanish and Brazilian had.
The Colombian David Alosno, in the middle of the test, led his two companions to link to Canet and Moreira, so that the head was consolidated by five pilots. The aforementioned, more Agius and Guevara.
Five laps from the end, Alonso advanced to Canet and partially led. Then they started overtaking curves from one another, one take and give me that it would mark the last bars of the Moto2 Grand Prix, with Izán already a little off the fifth place.
However, he always gave the feeling that Canet was slightly above his teammates, as he confirmed four from the end when he added four tenths of advantage charged his persecutors.
David Alonso, great protagonist in Silverstone
An advantage that did not guarantee anything, because David Alonso hunt him in the fifteenth. The fight was without barracks between the first two, on the one hand, and Agius and Moreira, on the other to get on the podium. Everything was going to change shortly.
Agius left Moreira in the last turn and went for the victory. The fight between Canet and Alonso helped the Australian find a hole to sneak down and get his first motorcycle2.
The two Spaniards of the leading group, Canet and Guevara, finally ran out of podium, after fighting during the 17 laps for him and were fourth and fifth.
Within 15 days there will be the Aragon Grand Prix, in which David Alonso aspires to continue being the protagonist and get on the Moto2 podium.
