Cooler temperatures helped to alleviate the rear grip issues that both Movistar Yamaha MotoGP riders had during the weekend. This confidence in the dry was short lived as spits of rain began to fall, causing Lorenzo to ease off and briefly settle for third.
From here Lorenzo managed the gap to win by ten seconds ahead of Aleix Espargaro (NGM Forward Yamaha). Not only is this Lorenzo’s first win of 2014, it is also Yamaha’s first ever victory at the Aragon circuit.
