Ducati's Francesco Bagnaia extended his lead at the top of the world championship by winning the sprint race at the Italian Grand Prix on Saturday while his title rival and closest contender Marco Bezzecchi finished second.
Bagnaia's sprint win in his home race moved him up to 106 points while VR46 Racing's Bezzecchi is four points behind ahead of Sunday's race.
Rain threatened to wreak havoc early on but the sun peeked out from behind the dark clouds at Mugello, although the riders still had to deal with wind and drizzle on sections of the track."I just tried to not leave any chance for him to overtake. I really enjoyed today." Binder eventually finished outside the top 10 but not before the South African had written his name into the history books by becoming the fastest Grand Prix rider ever, clocking 366.1 kph.
Bezzecchi then made his move to get past the Pramac Ducatis and up to second, giving Bagnaia chase with the two riders separated by just one point in the championship standings going into the sprint.

The Court of Ministers in Brescia threw out the case against ex-Premier Giuseppe Conte and ex-Health Minister Roberto Speranza on Wednesday. The investigation alleged errors were made in not extending a “red zone” to Bergamo province. A court must still decide whether to indict more than a dozen other people.
