The eight-time World Champion joked about it at the end of the event, in which he finished 4th, less than 3 seconds from his brother who broke clear of him in the final laps after a fierce fight over third. “We will have a small meeting between the HRC riders, don’t worry,” Marc joked about the quite aggressive style of Nakagami, who equally couldn’t hide his smile. Alex, meanwhile, was pleased to have got the better of his brother for the second time in two weeks: “We had a great time and I had the opportunity to fight Marc and win”.
