168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fabio Quartararo’s Italian MotoGP Sprint ended on the second lap when contact from 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Miguel Oliveira sent them both into the gravel.

The Frenchman, who had finished ღthe opening lap in⛎ 14th place, said:

“ꦫI talked with Miguel a little bit. He, of course, braked really late, he made a mistake, and we crashed together. But these things can happen.

“I couldn't collect any information for the race… 🌊Let's see what we can do tomorrow.”

The FIM Stewards deemed 💧the accident a racing incident, with no further action taken. The same judgement applied to ෴the Jorge Martin-Enea Bastianini incident.

Quartararo is understood to have visited the🌟 Stewards after the race.

The Frenchman was not seeking a penalty for Oliv🎃eira but wanted to highlight that he received a long lap at Assen 2022 for being ‘overly ambitious’ when attempting to pass Aleix Espargaro, even though the Aprilia rider did not fall.

Monster Yamaha team director Massimo Meregalli called the Oliveira inci☂dent ‘borderline’ and, perhaps not by coincidence, uꦕsed the word 'ambitious’.

“It's a shame that Fabio's challenge ended early today, but we are happy that he is unharmed," Meregalli said. "This accident is quite borderline. We think that Miguel was a bit ambitious in his actio🌱ns."

Alex Rins was thus the only Yamaha to re🌜ach the finish,🌃 in 13th.

“Today, the feeling with the bike was a little bit different 🔥from what I f🧜elt on Friday,” Rins said. “I was struggling a little bit more to turn the bike and to get the traction.

“We need𒈔 to work and understand why this is. We need to find some💫thing on the bike to close the gap.”
