However, he still much more to show his fans who wanted to see him win a GP in his country of origin.<\/p>\n<p><strong>On 8th October, Mick Doohan had already achieved the Repsol Honda Team&#8217;s first World Champion title<\/strong>. He had won it in the previous GP, held in Argentina. Crivill\u00e9 obtained 5 podiums during that season, (one of them in the Jerez circuit)although he was ready to win in Assen where he had the pole position during the fastest lap.<\/p>\n<p>The weekend began with problems for the Spanish rider. One of Crivill\u00e9&#8217;s bikes wasn&#8217;t performing well, and he had to change to switch to another one.<strong> These inconveniences pushed him back to the seventh position on the grid, with Doohan finishing second and Shinichi sixth, right before \u00c1lex<\/strong>. The riders gathered at the exit, grouping for a few metres but luckily there were no hits and there were few changes in the positions.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bxrepsol.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/static\/2022\/08\/05064714\/00_alex_criville_sinichi_itoh_parrilla_salida.jpg\" \n   title=\"Parrilla salida 500cc\" \n   data-gallery-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/bxrepsol.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/static\/2022\/08\/05064714\/00_alex_criville_sinichi_itoh_parrilla_salida.jpg\"\n   data-gallery-title=\"\"\n   data-gallery><\/p>\n<figure>\n        <picture style=\"padding-bottom: 68.145161290323%; background-image: url(https:\/\/bxrepsol.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/static\/2022\/08\/05064714\/00_alex_criville_sinichi_itoh_parrilla_salida.jpg);\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bxrepsol.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/static\/2022\/08\/05064714\/00_alex_criville_sinichi_itoh_parrilla_salida.jpg\"><br \/>\n            <img itemprop=\"image\"\n                data-srcset=\"https:\/\/bxrepsol.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/static\/2022\/08\/05064714\/00_alex_criville_sinichi_itoh_parrilla_salida.jpg 480w, https:\/\/bxrepsol.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/static\/2022\/08\/05064714\/00_alex_criville_sinichi_itoh_parrilla_salida.jpg 600w, https:\/\/bxrepsol.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/static\/2022\/08\/05064714\/00_alex_criville_sinichi_itoh_parrilla_salida.jpg 900w\"\n                data-src=\"https:\/\/bxrepsol.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/static\/2022\/08\/05064714\/00_alex_criville_sinichi_itoh_parrilla_salida.jpg\"\n                alt=\"Parrilla salida 500cc\"\n                title=\"\u00c1lex Crivill\u00e9 y Sinichi Itoh en la parrilla de salida\"\/><br \/>\n            <noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bxrepsol.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/static\/2022\/08\/05064714\/00_alex_criville_sinichi_itoh_parrilla_salida.jpg\" alt=\"Parrilla salida 500cc\"><\/noscript>\n        <\/picture><figcaption>Parrilla salida 500cc<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Carlos Checa from the satellite Honda Pons Repsol Team was second<\/strong>, reducing the distance that separated him from Daryl Beattie and his Suzuki.
