Espargaro gave Aprilia its first front row in the modern MotoGP era when he qualified third at the Sachsenring and led briefly on the opening two laps.

Just a fortnight on from being left furious at the way Mazepin had defended a position at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, the pair had another run-in at Paul Ricard. Schumacher was forced wide on to the run-off at Turn 3 early in the race after Mazepin made an aggressive dive down the inside to grab
The pole-sitting Team Penske driver led 32 of the 55 laps and looked set to secure his and the team’s first win of a disappointing season – having also missed out on a likely victory in the previous race at Detroit by a late charge from Patricio O’Ward. But at the last of four restarts,

The 21-year-old was set to finish third after seeing off the challenge of Team Penske’s Will Power, but moved up to second behind Alex Palou when Power’s race-leading team-mate Josef Newgarden was cruelly slowed by a late gearbox failure. The result marked Herta’s second podium of the year, after winning at St. Petersburg, and was
Last week’s announcement that the final stage of the government’s roadmap out of lockdown had been delayed cast serious doubts over the viability of the event with Goodwood saying it would issue an update in due course about the 8-11 July extravaganza.

Neither Leclerc nor Carlos Sainz Jr were able to keep their tyres alive long enough to match the lap times of their rivals, and their pace drop off and need for extra stops saw them slump to outside the top ten. But while Ferrari was not alone in suffering more degradation in the French GP
Larson saved enough fuel to make it to the end as Sunday’s Ally 400 ended with a 68-lap green-flag run – the longest of the race, and took the checkered flag 4.335 seconds ahead of Ross Chastain, who reached the runner-up spot in the final laps.
