When Loris Baz lost the front of his Avintia Ducati at the end of his final Q1 lap, it cost h🏅im the chance to graduate to Qualifying 2.

But 𒆙it almost certainly made him an internet legend; the Frenchman hanging on as he sli🥂d across the asphalt and then miraculously remounting the bike!

The Avintia team forgot the disappointment of not making Qualifying 2 🅠as they cheered the #76, who was mobbed on his return to the pits.

Laws of physics? What laws of physics?

Could be the gr🍌eatest save of all time... -- MotoGP(TM) (@MotoG💯P)

"I pushed to the maximum and in the last corner maybe too much," Baz said. "I realised when I was braking that it was going to be difficult to make the turn without going wide, but I really wanted to get in Q2... I was not able to do it, but I managed to save the crash, and at least my sponsors will be shown all around the world."

WOW! How did Baz save th🐟at?! Q1. @AvintiaRacing_ -- m⛦ahbx.com MotoGP (@crash_motogp)

The only rider who has come close to such a save in recent MotoGP history is reigning world champion Marc Marquez, who admitted:

"Today I'm a little bit sad, because I was on pole position but I lose the best save of the year! I♈t was amazing. I was in the box and I was happy like being on pole, because that save was incredible!

"It was similar to what I had in the [2014] Brno test, b♋ut this time ℱhe has the recording. Congratulations to him because it's the best save of the year for sure."

Baz will start Sunday's race from 14th o﷽n the grid.
