MotoGP Japan: Joan Mir: “It’s a big shame”
After enjoying by far his best weekend of a torrid debut season at Repsol Honda wit𒀰h fifth place 🦋in India, Mir was brought back down to earth by 13th place in the Motegi Sprint (from 15th on the grid).
But the 2020 world c𝓡hampion t𒁃ook advantage of the Sunday rain to rocket up the order to seventh place, after swapping to his wet bike.
With the rain wo🦹rsening, and his ꧂visibility depleting, Mir suddenly dropped to 13th on lap 12, when the red flags were waved.

“I had some visibility problems with my helmet unfortunately, it’s something I have never had in the past and today was the day,” he said. “It’s a bꦚig shame, I couldn’t see so I was missing my reference points on track.
“When I was fighting wiꦆth Miller I could 🌺see a bit, but then the rain came heavier, and it was enough to stop me.
“I’m really disappointed be๊cause I think we showed th𝄹at there was some good speed there and we could have done something more.
“Nowﷺ we have a week off to tr🦂ain and recover a bit before we go racing again.”
