Webb was 18th on the grid, with high hopes of a top-15 points-scoring finish.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike the majority of the Moto3 field, made up of proprietary over-the-counter production racers from established firms, the white-and-red Mahindra is an all-independent venture, which will give the first Indian company in motorcycle grand prix racing the benefit of developing technology on its own account. The 250cc single-cylinder four-stroke is still in its earliest stages of development, but already moving forward in the pack.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have been working to achieve reliability, so it is a pity that a small low-cost component like this should stop Danny,\u201d said team manager Nicola Casadei.<\/p>\n<p>By contrast, Schr\u00f6tter\u2019s bike didn\u2019t miss a beat. He had qualified 23rd, but a slow getaway put him 28th at the end of the first lap. By the finish he had picked his way through to 19th, well ahead of the group behind him, but with those ahead still tantalisingly out of reach.<\/p>\n<p>The race was won by German rider Sandro Cortese (KTM).<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>By Indian Sports News Network<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"images\/racing\/mahindra.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Portuguese GP: Mahindra rider Schr\u00f6tter finish in top 20\" width=\"250\" style=\"float: left; margin: 6px;\" \/>Estoril<\/strong>: Mahindra rider Marcel Schr\u00f6tter overcame the problems that he faced in the first-lap to secure a solid top-20 finish in today\u2019s Portuguese GP.
