Mahindra makes history with epic first win at Assen

ITALIAN TEENAGER PECCO BAGNAIA made history at Assen on Sunday – fighting every inch of the way to claim not only his first grand prix win, for the Mahindra Moto3 team, but the first ever in the history of the sport for an Indian constructor.

The 19-year-old Italian’s triumph came after one of the fiercest races ever seen in the most competitive class in the MotoGP World Championships.
 
Bagnaia had qualified tenth, on the fourth row of the grid, but he put his white-liveried Aspar Mahindra racer at the sharp end throughout. After 99.924 km of the fiercest fighting, the 19-year-old star was ready to claim a virtual photo-finish win in a fairing-banging, paint-swapping brawl through the final chicane.
