Franco Morbidelli on Marc Marquez contact: ‘He went left, we got tangled’
Franco Morbidelli: “He went on the left as I was going through, anꦑd we got tangled."

The fallout from 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez’s front holeshot device issue saw a tangle with 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Franco Morbidelli into Turn 1 of Sunday’s Austrian MotoGP.
Lacking acceleration, Marquez soon plummeted from third to sixth, with Morbidell﷽i also trying to weave around the Gresini⛄ rider.
But the gap Morbidelli was aiming for, between Aleix Espargaro and Marquez, suddenly dis🐷appeared and the pair made c♊ontact, sending them both wide.
Marquez rejoined in 13th with꧃ Morbidelli down in 18th.
“When I arrived into Turn 1, Marc had a problem. I think he didn’t engage the front device or something, so he ha💟d a different speed,” said Morbidelli.
“H🌸e went on the left a🔜s I was going through, and we got tangled.
“But finally, nothing happe𒅌ned and I’m happy about that.”
In a race that saw little overtaking, Marquez gained nine places by theꦦ chequered flag with Morbidelli recovering ten positi💃ons.
“Recovering from 18t🐠h wasn’t easy. To overtake ꧅people here, it's complicated,” said Morbidelli.
“Front tyre pressure goes sky high and the performance of everythi🅘ng decreases by a lot. But anyway we were able to catch up to eighth. So it was a positive race for us.
“In MotoGP, it’s becoming more and more di🍨fficult to overtake because the difference in performance between the bikes in a straight line is very small. And everybody is able to brake very deep, with the [ride height] devices the bikes have.
“But today I gained ten positions. In France again I gained ten or 🌼eleven position. So it's still do-able.
“I’m happy with the speed we had and with the feelings I experienced. I hope to qualify better in Aragon and in the following races.”
