Are MotoGP Stewards guilty of inconsistent decision-making?

Do you ever just get annoyed at inconsistent decision-making?

That’s how I feel about the FIM Sღtewards - this season, last season. 

At Assen, fಞor example. Brad Binder was on the green, by the [smallest amount]. He went back to fourth place.

At the British MotoGP which was won by Aleix Espargaro, we saw 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Francesco Bagnaia on the green as he came out of Stowe.

Everyone could see he was on the green. He didn’t lose any positions.ꦉ Why? Because the sensors didn’t go off.

But when you see it from multiple angles - th💛e helicopter, the TV angle which we see - you can see that he’s on the green.

Because the sensors didn’t go off it means he doesn’t get punished. But that’s not the point. You’re relying on technology to tell you wh༺en someone goes on the green.

The Stewards look back🧔 at video evidence and didn’t see anything wrong.

It’s just💃 crazy. Bagnaia was on the green just as much, if not more, than Binder was. It’s not fair.

It’s nothing to do with Bagnaia. If this wa🧔s🐽 Enea Bastianini or Maverick Vinales, the video would be the same.

I🃏t’s the inconsistent decision-making which is just not right. 

We’r꧂e in the territory where the FIM Stewards are becoming like FIA Stewards in F1.

Terrible inconsistency. That’s the problem Iꩵ have. Inconsistent decision-making.

Someone gets a pen🦩alty, then someone gets a penalty way worse for doing something that’s not as bad…

What’s the solution? That the sensors didn’t go off sꦗurely points at the technology that they’re using not being 100% accurate.

They🐈 could replicate that by saying ‘Bagnaia was on the green, Binder was 0.4s behind’. Surely that means he has to drop a place.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Brad Binder couldn’t overtake Bagnaia? Not 🌱the point. Remember back to the Austrian MotoGP in 2021, which Binder won, he went on the green at the last corner and got a three-second penalty. It didn’t matter because he won by [more].

He got a penalty even t🌜hough it didn’t affect anyone behind him𒈔.

When are we going to get fairer decision-making?
