MotoGP Valencia: Fernandez vs Ogura: there can be only one in Moto2

bikesportnews.com

Moto2 World Championship honour is on the line this weekend, with two contenders fighting it out for one crown in the season finale. At the time, the crash in Australia for Red Bull KTM Ajo’s Augusto Fernandez felt pivotal.

But fast forward to the final lap at Sepang and Idemitsu Honda Team Asia’s Ai Ogura definitely upstaged the Spaniard in ways he will likely still be ruing.

And so we arrive into the final round with Fernandez’ name pencilled on the trophy instead, with the number 37 9.5 points clear with 25 still up for grabs.

Both have had incredible seasons and would be deserving of the crown, but that’s not how it will work once the lights go out.
