Nine riders DNF’d the MotoGP Grand Prix of the Americas, there were multiple crashes - they explain why…
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Brad Binder spun out of the top 10 but was able to recover his KTM, and finish 13th (the last of the riders who finished).
Binder: I expected a l🍰ot more from my race. I had a really good jump off the line. Turn 1, I made the wrong decision to go on the ou༺tside. It really hurt my progress.
The first lap was chaotic, I couldn’t get going. Five or six laps in, I felt more normal and waꦏs able to ride the b🥂ike how I wanted to.
Unfortunately I just tucked the front in one💛 of the small corners. I ended up picking up the bike, coming home, and scoring three points.
I’m happy with three points despite the mistake.
A really bad start put us༒ in a bit of a rough position. When I was trying to come through the field, it was tricky.
I’ve made m▨y mistake. I’ll learn from it. I’ll try not to do it a🐎gain.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alex Marquez was wiped out on the first lap by Jorge Martin.
Marquez: It sometimes happens like this. Today it happened to Jor🦄ge, tomorrow it could happen to me.
We are on the li�ꦦ�mit. We are humans. We all make mistakes.
In this sport i♈f﷽ you brake half a metre late, you pay.
He made a small mistake, goi⛎ng wide then trying to recover. He lost the front. He made a mistake, he knows what he did.
For me, it’s closed. This i💦s something that can happen. I don’t want to criticise.
I am disappointed to lose crucial points. [On ไSaturday] I made a♚ mistake, crashing alone.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jorge Martin’s error ended his race, and took out Alex Marquez.
Martin: It is a pity that we lost the 💃race 💧on the first lap.
It was a difficult weekend for me, in terms of𒀰 my physical condition. But I was solving the problems that were coming.
Eveꦛry day I felt better. P3 in the sprint race, then I was already in front after the start.
At Turn 3 I lost the front. I am sorry that Alex🉐 crashed with me.
I hope to improve from my mistakes in the future.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Aleix Espargaro endured a race to forget, crashing before completing a single lap.
Espargaro: Weꦆ did a good job this weekend. Unfortunately I couldn’t finish the ra﷽ce.
From the start, I had a problem with the rear height device. It didn’t come in the standarꦍd position after corner 1.
I did the first part of the track🍒 with a rear low.
When I braked in 🎃the back straight then accelerated, it was the same problem. So I crashed.
It’s a shame because ♛we were strong and fast at a difficult track for us. So I am disappointed.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Raul Fernandez did not finish due to a malfunctioning ride height device.
Fernandez: We are unlucky. I did an amazing start. I was 13th, c🌺atching the group of Maverick Vinales and Miguel Oliveira.
I had a mechanical problem, I had to retire.
The team did a good job, Aprilia✨ also. This sometimes happens. Sometimes we have mechanical problems.
We need a good result for my feeling with the bike. We will tr🍷y in Jerez, I am optimistic.
Joan Mir hit the deck, from 10th, with 12 laps to go.
Mir: Coming from the back is difficult, difficult to ﷺovertake.
Tr𒆙ying to overtake Franco Moꦛrbidelli, I lost the front. That’s what happened.
It’s a difficult sit🐻uation. We are not in the position to fight for the victo🀅ry. This is tough.
When Takaaki Nakagami went down, he left only 14 riders remaining in the race.
Nakagami: Unfortunately I had a crash while I was P9.
I had some issues, then a crash. I am🍒 a bit disappointed. But I gave my best.ꦬ Sometimes, this happens.
I tried to keep ꦐpushing, head down, I will try to get motivated for the European run. Jerez is one of my favourite trﷺacks.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jack Miller was on course for a podium finish before his sixth crash of the weekend.
Miller: I squared the corner before off, just a little more than the lap before, then⛦ paused on the change of direction.
Whether or not that made it load onto the front… t🎃he lean angle seemed very similar.
You’re on th༒e limit around here. I tried sticking the elbow in, but there was no saving it.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Francesco Bagnaia was leading the race but, with three laps left, he dramatically crashed.
Bagnaia: I'm very angry, not with myself, because I'm 100% sure that wasn't my fault today. In Argentina, I recognise that I was a bit on the limit. But today, no. ♒Today something happened, but not in terms of a cold tyre or the win💧d. Something we have to understand from the bike.
Stefan Bradl was replacing the injured Marc Marquez but failed to finish.
Bradl: I didn't make a mistake. I just c♌ollapsed the front wheel at Turn 13.”
