MotoGP: Acosta-Martin-Espargarò: charity wins at Rocco's Ranch in crossfire

The riders are enjoying the well-deserved winter vacations but, apparently, they have no intention of giving up their bikes. Before the holiday season, one of the inevitable events in Spain is the TT Xmas, or the flat track race, staged at Rocco's Ranch in Barcelona.

Between Friday and Saturday, we saw several riders in action, such as Acosta, Aleix Espargarò, Martin, Aldeguer, Gardner, Vierge, Moreira Augusto Fernandez, and even Mamola.

Diogo Moreira took the win, making his Moto2 debut this year with the colors of the Italtrans team. Third place, instead, went to future MotoGP rookie Fermin Aldeguer, who'll be picking up Marc Marquez's baton next season on Gresini's Ducati.

However, the true victory was the more than €20,000 raised. All the proceeds will be donated to the victims of October's violent floods in Valencia.
