Catalunya GP - 250cc Race Result

A superb win by Alvaro who took charge in the opening couple of laps, and slowly edged away once Sideshow Bob thankfully went and binned himself on lap 2 and left everybody that teensy bit safer for the remainder...
Sensible, swift, measured and mature - a great ride from Alvaro - and judging by the noise form the crowds drowning out the engines, a very very popular one too.

Estupendo Alvarito! Estupendo!
