MotoE, Joys and sorrows for Zaccone: disqualified in Race 1, wins in Race 2

Thanks to a beautiful last-lap overtaking move, Hector Garzo came out on top in Race 1 of the FIM Enel MotoE World Championship at Motul TT Assen. The No. 4 passed inside poleman Alessandro Zaccone at the fast Turn 13 to win for the first time in 2024, with Zaccone forced to settle for second under the checkered flag. However, a tire pressure penalty saw the Italian disqualified from Race 1, so the runner-up spot went to Oscar Gutierrez, who recovered from 11th on the grid. Following Zaccone's penalty, Jordi Torres was promoted to the podium.

Mattia Casadei went down at the first corner, while Kevin Zannoni and Eric Granado crashed following contact in the final stages at Turn 5.

In Race 2, Alessandro Zaccone managed to impose himself: the Italian dominated and pocketed the coveted 25 points. Almost 2 seconds behind, in second place, was Oscar Gutierrez, making another splendid comeback, while Hector Garzo completed the podium.

With Kevin Zannoni and Mattia Casadei finishing in 7th and 8th respectively in Race 2, the championship reopened.
