MotoGP FP4 red-flagged after Alex Rins' Suzuki catches fire

The first signs of the Suzuki engine problem occurred when Rins ran wide at&nb🌳sp;Turn 10 due to fluid leaking onto his rear wheel. Replays also showed small flamesℱ in the belly pan.
The Sp𒅌aniard was seen looking downwards but didn't spot the issue until the flames had grown much larger, as he accelerated out of Turn 12.
Looking down once again, Rins realised 🍌the danger he was now in and bailed off the bike on the entry to Turn 13.
Rins escaped unharmed and marshals promptly extinguished th🅺e flam🐻es, but Johann Zarco fell from his Pramac Ducati on the oil left at Turn 10.
The track is currently bein🍎g cleaned before FP4 will resume at 14:50 local time (6:🎶50 UK).

Peter has been in the paddock ♉for 20 years and has seen Valentino Rossi come and go. He is at the forefront of the Suzuki exit story and Marc Marquez’s injury issues.
