The finale is upon us, so getting your MotoGP™ Fantasy picks right is crucial!
MotoGP™ has arrived at the Circuit Ricardo Tormo for #TheDecider, and it’s not just two World Championships that go on the line in Valencia. For MotoGP™ Fantasy gamers, there is everything still to play for, and lots to think about ahead of what is set to be an enthralling Gran Premio Motul de la Comunitat Valenciana! Without further ado, let’s check the form guide after a nail-biting Malaysian GP.
Who made the Dream Team at Sepang?
Fittingly, two riders stood out in MotoGP™ Fantasy at the Malaysian Grand Prix, namely our World Championship contenders, Francesco Bagnaia (Ducati Lenovo Team) and Fabio Quartararo (Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP™). Bagnaia won the race after a brilliant start and opening lap from ninth on the grid, battling with future teammate Enea Bastianini (Gresini Racing MotoGP™) in an encounter which caused lots of tension on the pit wall for Ducati but thoroughly entertained the local fans. Pecco scored 48 MotoGP™ Fantasy points and if you had also selected Quartararo as one of your Gold Riders, then the Frenchman delivered another 34 points for you. He scored the majority of those points by gaining nine positions over the course of the Grand Prix, having qualified just 12th before launching his Yamaha all the way to the podium in a ride which kept his title defence alive.
Who are the MotoGP™ grid backing ahead of the Valencia GP?
Bastianini, of course, pushed Bagnaia all the way and his runner-up result at Sepang helped him score 29 MotoGP™ Fantasy points. ‘La Bestia’ was therefore one of the Dream Team picks as a Silver Rider, and the other one was Jack Miller (Ducati Lenovo Team), who scored 28 MotoGP™ Fantasy points. True to his nickname, though, ‘Thriller’ did so in very different fashion, with 16 of those points coming because of the net eight positions he gained in taking the chequered flag in sixth position from 14th on the grid.
