Pedro Acosta Started the grid in fifth position putting behind Bezzecchi and Marq Marquez. But at the start of the race, he lost his position to Marquez and Bezzechi running wide. The race continued with J. Martin, F.Bagnaia and E.Bastianini leading the poles.
The Red Bull driver was very determined to catch up on his lost position. But at turn 15 he lost grip during cornering. He slid away and gave away a hard-fought race. Acosta ended his race giving away valuable points from the Red Bull team. Previously on the first lap, Brad Binder of the Red Bull KTM factory racing team crashed and was 1 lap away from other riders.

Ducati Lenovo Teams Bagnaia also crashed with 7 laps to go at the Emilia Romagna GP. He was leading the race at the start but lost grip and gave away his place to J. Martin and Bastianini.
But Bagnaia was catching up by setting the pace with Marquez behind him. In the 20th lap, Bagnaia got locked up and crashed and fell into the track. Bagnaia failed to win Ducati’s 100th race at the premier class level. An angry-looking Bagnaia left the track with frustration.
