David Munoz has been hit with a new punishment afte🔜r the Moto3 r꧋ace in Thailand.

Munoz had alread🐟y been given a longಞ lap penalty during the Buriram race.

But, afterwards, he has been slapped with a fresh punishment to be served at the next round in ಞArgentina on March 16.

Munoz and Luca🌃 Lunetta engaged in a spiky battle at the season-opener. Lunetta rejoined after falling into the gravel early on.

Munoz, who was trailing, became reckless and was g❀iven a long lap penalty. He cras🥀hed out, tapping his head as he trudged back to his garage to imply he had lost focus.

“You were found𒁃 to be riding in an irresponsible manner causing a contact, inv🅠olving rider #58,” the stewards ruled after the race about Munoz.

“The situation was exaggerated with the maneuver executed whi�🐈�lst the section of circuit was under yellow led/flag conditions.”

The stewards added: “After notification of [the long lap] penalty you crashed at Turn 3, without serving💧 it.

“The FIM MotoGP Stewards panel further reviewed the incident after the race and considered the exceptionally high risk to marshals who were placed in danger following the contacꦺt, which caused #58 to run deep into the run off area.

“Given the exaggerated risk caused, the FIM MotoGP Stewards Panel furꦦther impose a Pit Lane Start Penalty, to be served by the rider (#64) in the next Grand Prix race.”

Jose Antonio Ruꦜeda eventually won the first Moto3 race of ꦜ2025, after Munoz crashed out. Lunetta was 10th.
