This time our Spanish Rider starts in the eighth position but soon, in the fourth lap, he is already among the top ones.
Aoyama loses ground already in the first curves and the scrimmage with him starts immediately.
Both try to gain the Italians who are at the head. At the eleventh lap, the turn-up for the book: Marco Simoncelli falls down and this lays all cards on the table again. Bautista, with the obstinacy that characterizes him, passes on the finish line the Japanese competitor for few hundreds of seconds. Now Bautista is missing only 13 points in the World Championship score.
