Aleix Espargaro questions MotoGP penalty consistency after Miller pile-up
“I don’t care. I don’t blame Jack…”

Aleix Espargaro ‘doesn’t care’ that Jack Miller wasn’t penalised for triggering a lap one pile-up in the MotoGP Indonesian Grand Prix but has questioned penalty♋ consistency.
The Aprilia rider was one of three riders in🐽cluding Alex Marquez and Luca Marini who were taken out in a Turn 3 pile-up triggered by a crashing Miller on the opening lap ꦉof Sunday’s Indonesian GP.
The incident was investigaꦇted by the stewards but no furtಞher action was taken and Miller escaped punishment.
In the earlier Moto2 race, Zonta van den Goorbergh was hit with a do🥃uble long lap penalty for contact with Jaume ♊Masia at Turn 1 that resulted in the Spaniard crashing out.
While Espargaro isn’t bothered about the incident, he has questioned why van den Goorbergh was given a penalty for something he felt was “a normal touch in corner one” and nothin꧃g was given to Miller for something similar.
“It’s always difficult,” he began.
“I saw, for e💖xample, the decision in Moto2 o🌜f Zonta with Masia.
“They just gave a long lap penalty bec🔯ause Masia crashed. But I saw a normal touch in corner one.
“Why did he have thatꦅ double long lap penalty and we didn’t? I don’t care.
“I don’t blame Jackꦗ. It can happen. It’s the first lap, he obviously risked a lot.
“This is why maybe you can understand the decision because if 🔜you check the helicopter sho🔥t he was completely out of the line. But it’s racing and it can happen.”
Miller agreed with the stewards’ decision and held his hands up that the crash 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:was his mistake.
From Alex Marquez’s perspectiܫve, he too held not ill-will towards the KTM rider.
“I🧜 mean, not a lot to say because I didn’t see the crash,” he added.
“Just some bikes hit me on the rear - I think it wa🎉s the KTM from Miller.
“Maybe he was too optimistic going into that place and he touched the brakes and los🐈t the front.
“It’s some🎉thing♛ that can happen. Everyone wants to recover fast, everyone wants to recover positions, especially on this track where the front tyre gets hot and it’s difficult to overtake.
“So, not much to say. A weekend to forget🌟.”
