The Indianapolis Grand Prix has just been run and won (by Jorge Lorenzo), and our favourite Kentuckian managed to hold off a strong late challenge from Andrea Dovizioso to take his first podium for Ducati, with a third place!

HUGE congrats to Nicky and Ducati, you guys have worked tremendously hard together to get that bike running up at the front, and hope this podium inspires you for the rest of the season!

And they had all better party hard tonight!
