Indonesian WorldSBK: Alvaro Bautista wins Race 2, confirms Superpole crash not due to incident with Jonathan Rea

The current WorldSBK champion won both longer format races but came unstuck during the 10-lap Superpole Race after minor contact with 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jonathan Rea saw him pushed wide.
Almost in tandem, both riders had the rear of their machines light🦹 up as they applied the throttle. However, unlike Rea who managed to save his hi𒈔ghside, Bautista was launched over the top of his Panigale V4 R.

The incident occured following a tough overtake from Rea on the change of direction between turns 11 and 12, with very minor contact made which led to both riders runn♏ing off the racing line, and th🍨erefore onto the dirty part of the track.
"I entered into corner 12 and Jonathan got the inside," said Bautista. "Both wanted to go into the good🌜 line and then we both went out of the line. In this track, if you go out of the line it is very easy to⛦ crash. I tried to pick up the bike, be smooth with the gas but I just touched the gas and the rear went boom!
"The same happened to J💯o🔯nathan. On a normal track I didn’t crash. Lucky that I was not injured.”
Although Bautista was ke🅠en to not blame Rea and insisted racing was clean between🎀 the two rivals, the Ducati rider said it could have been avoided.
"Well, for sure if I go alone then I don’t go outside the line, but no, he tried to overtake me like a normal manouvre," added Bautista. "The problem is that when you🌊 have [a small piece] of good asphalt then and𝓀 both want to enter then it’s impossible.
"I don’t want to just leꦜt him pass and go to the dirty side. So I just tried to stay, he tried to stay and then we touched a little bit and went out.
"I’m not sure if we touched but it was good overtaking and I’m not complaining about it. I cr🍰ashed because of theꦆ dirty part of the track, not because of Jonathan."
Rinaldi loses out on WorldSBK podium after costly mistake

Looking set to win his first race of the year in both the first edition of Race 2 and the 14-lap restarted race, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Michael Ruben Rinaldi instead threw awa🌞y a comfortable podium with 💎a mistake at turn ten.
Rinaldi, twice opened up a significant gap to the riders behind him, but after Bautista showed impressive late race pace to charge him down and overtake him on the penultiꦇmate lap, Rinaldi then ran off-track at the same corner one lap later.
The error resulted in 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Toprak Razgatlioglu and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Xavi Vierge making their way througඣh on the Italian, who after the race said he had no front grip left and that avoiding a crash was his sole focus. &nbs🍌p;
"Since Friday, as soon as I put a used front I do some laps and then it drops, I lose grip, cannot drive [out of the corner] and this ha🦄ppened again," said Rinaldi. "When we restarted the race nobody had two new tyres. At the beginning ♔I felt okay, pushed and gained 1.5 seconds.
"But then happened what I said to you. After a few laps with the used tyre the front dropped. The same h✱appened this morning in the warm-up and this morning I found the limit because I crashedﷺ.
"So I knew where the limit was. I tried to bring home the best position but I could not push anymore like I wanted to. Alvaro a🐼rrived and passed me. Then, in the final lap I just tried to not crash with the front.
"But on the exit of turn eight my bikeཧ shacked really hard and and by trying not to crash I looked at the handlebars to try and control the bike, but when I looked forward the braking [zone] was already in my face. I missed the braking pointꦓ and ran wide. It’s a shame."
