Victory and leadership for Foggia, who has shown to be at another level. His victory at the Indonesian GP is preceded by a seventh place in Qatar obtained from the bottom of the grid and those places, combined with the crash on the last lap of Migno, which Sasaki rammed, make him at the head of the general standings with a one point advantage over García, who was just on the verge of the podium.
Those who did have a place in the trophy ceremony were Guevara and Tatay. For the Mallorcan it means the second podium in the category and for the Valencian it is the first. Both can be very happy with the result obtained, but above all with the way of achieving it. Guevara is going to be a star of this sport. He managed the race wonderfully and only the fight with his teammate García, with whom he has been at odds since last year’s race in Alcañiz, prevented him from trying to avoid Foggia’s escape.
Aspar’s two pupils went over and over a lot of times and, although Izan made a gesture to Sergio to collaborate in hunting the Italian, there was no agreement between them and that led to a large group of pursuers approaching them in which there were axes of all colors in the fight for third place. Guevara did not give second place an option, who gave another push in the final part and was able to cross the finish line one second ahead of Tatay and 2.6 behind Foggia, who came to have twice the advantage and slowed down in the final laps.
Tatay and García passed each other several times in that last lap, with the threat of an Öncü who, before starting the last lap, complicated Masiá’s options with a very tight pass. Returning to Tatay, he went from the disappointment of losing several positions after starting from pole to the rage at having to serve a long lap penalty for shortening the circuit and the enormous joy of his first World Cup podium. He burst into tears on the lap of honour, for everything he had suffered in the last two years, uncomfortable and without results, and in his statements he remembered the late Jason Dupasquier, whose team he has joined this season.
Following the winner of the 2019 Red Bull Rookies Cup, Öncü, Artigas, Masiá, Bartolini, Holgado and Suzuki crossed the finish line. Further back, Ana Carrasco 19th, and Adrián Fernández and Ortolá did not finish the race due to withdrawal, the latter having previously suffered a fall.
