The full statement f🐼rom the FIM ꦬStewards is as follows:
FIM MotoGP Stewards Notification of Sanction: Sterilgarda Husqvarna Max Team
'Two members of the team were found to be interfering and making contact with the bike and rider of another team in an aggressive and dangerous manner as that rider was leaving the pit box in Moto3 Q2.
'Both team members have been fined €2000, and they have each been disqualified from taking part in the Animoca Brands Australian Motorcycle Grand Prix AND the Petronas Grand Prix of Malaysia.
'It would not be possible to replace the team members in question for the next two races due to immigration and travel restrictions for upcoming rounds, which could potentially cause a safety concern for their rider.
'This two-race ban has therefore been deferred to apply to the Australian and Malaysian Grands Prix.'
Responding🅷 to the vi🍃deo of the incident, team boss Max Biaggi wrote:
“The behaviour that some members of my team had today is uꦓnacc🅰eptable!
"I publicly apologise to the Tech3 Racing team and to Adriàn Fernàndez, for what happened. What we've seen was an unsolicited action, dangerous and not just♏ifiable in any way by the code of ethics of ꧙my Team!
"For this reason, 🌠all [ওthose] responsible for this act will be appropriately punished.”
There are💎 rumours that a further altercation may also have taken place after th🗹e session...
