MotoGP Silverstone - Race Results
Maverick Vinales has claimed his first MotoGP victory with a dominant ride in the British MotoGP at Silverstone!
Cal Crutchlow claims second with Valentino Rossi third, while Marc Marquez runs off track during a late battle with Crutchlow and drops down the order.
The original race was red-flagged on the opening lap following a huge accident involving Loris Baz and Pol Espargaro. Baz required the most treatment at trackside, but waved as he was moved to the ambulance.
