What a duel Tony Arbolino and Arón Canet are holding for second place. Several attacks and counterattacks already between them and this benefits only Ai Ogura, who is slightly widening his lead at the front of the race.

At the moment Celestino Vietti cannot link up with the leading group in the race and the Italian does not get past 6th position. Just like in the last race, it seems that the Italian has lost some of the momentum with which he started the season, with two wins and three podium finishes in the first three races.

Now it has been Sam Lowes who has set the fastest lap and the British driver is currently trying to close the gap he maintains with respect to the top four finishers.

The race is breaking and the top four seem to be in a position to go it alone. They are Ai Ogura, Tony Arbolino, Arón Canet and Somkiat Chantra.

FALL OF PEDRO ACOSTA!!! He was in 9th position. It will be necessary to see if he can continue in the race, but it is not probable that he will be able to mark a competitive position.

Celestino Vietti takes 5th position !!1 Both he and Sam Lowes have overtaken Fermín Aldeguer who falls to 7th place.

Celestino Vietti remains in sixth place, although it will probably not take too long to get closer to the head of the race.

Ai Ogura keeps the head of the race!!! And a great start also from Arón Canet who is in second place.
And we will be very aware of one more race by Pedro Acosta. The truth is that the Murcian is not having an easy transition in his first year in the intermediate category and has been forced to retire in the last two races. Today he starts in 10th place and it will be necessary to see if he finds enough rhythm to finish among the first.
Arón Canet starts the race from 4th place and the truth is that the Valencian rider is not finding the necessary luck in the last few races, when he has crashed leading the race and a first victory in Moto2 that he has already sometimes caressed with the tips of the fingers.
Tony Arbolino starts from second position, while it is Sam Lowes who completes the front row. This is the third race in which the Italian has started from the front row this season, while it is also the Briton’s third appearance so far forward on the starting grid and it may be one of the last opportunities for Lowes to rejoin to the fight for the title after a start to the year in which he has not obtained good results.
Celestino Vietti starts the race today in sixth position. Pole went to Ai Ogura, the Japanese’s first in the intermediate category and his first since the 2020 San Marino Grand Prix.
Thus, Celestino Vietti has a significant advantage of 34 points over Ai Ogura and 36 over Tony Arbolino. In this way, the Italian will continue to be the leader in the intermediate category regardless of what happens today at the Jerez – Ángel Nieto circuit.
It seems that the stars allied themselves with Celestino Vietti in the eventful race that took place last Sunday in Portimao in which a multiple accident caused a red flag to be displayed and the race had to be restarted. The Italian, who was quite behind, was not involved in the crash and finished second at the restart, also benefiting from the fact that his most direct rivals could not score in that race.
After Izan Guevara’s victory in Moto3, we are now focusing on everything that may happen in the second race of the day, Moto2.
Hello!! Welcome to the live broadcast of the Moto2 race of the Spanish motorcycle Grand Prix, the sixth round of the 2022 season. Are you ready? We start…
