The Italian kept his cool in an attritional Moto2™ race to take his first win in the class ahead of Ai Ogura and the Briton
The Circuit of the Americas rodeo status certainly lived up to its name after an attritional and thrilling Moto2™ race in Austin at the Red Bull Grand Prix of The Americas. As the race favourites and Championship contenders fell by the wayside, Tony Arbolino (Elf Marc VDS Racing Team) kept his cool to take his first-ever intermediate class victory with a 3.4s gap. Ai Ogura (Idemitsu Honda Team Asia) secured his second podium of the season to move into second in the title race while a marvelous run from Jake Dixon (Shimoko GASGAS Aspar Team) earned him a maiden Grand Prix podium. For poleman Cameron Beaubier (American Racing), it proved a day to forget as he failed to see the chequered flag.
Rising above the madness for victory
