On this grand day of record-breakers, we shine a well-earned spotlight on Aleix Espargaró, Aprilia’s #1 and the winner of our good British Grand Prix; to be clear, his winning the thing isn’t the biggie.
Espargaró took first place after starting the race in twelfth position – a marvelously hard thing to accomplish, but a dry-weather day in the life for our Granollers-born Spaniard.

“From Lap 1, even though I was starting 12th, I felt immediately super good with the bike,” Espargaro said in coverage from NBC Sports.
“It was one of those days when you felt invincible. The bike was turning, a lot of grip, braking stability. … At that time, my plan was to pass and start to pull away, but when it started to rain, I decided to stay quiet behind (Bagnaia).”
“It’s better if he opens the track, but on the last lap, I had something more and tried to overtake him. The last lap was very dramatic.”
