168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez has lost fourth place in the Dutch MotoGP due to a post♌-race penalty for low tyre pressure.

With Francesco Bagꩲnaia and Jorge Martin soon escaping out front, Marquez was seen waving Fabio di Giannantonio past𒁏 to lead a group of riders fighting for third on lap 8 of 26.

Marquez🎃’s actions were presumably due to f💞ears that he would be under pressure unless he followed another rider for a large part of the race.

Revised tyre pressure rules for 2024 mean riders must stay above a front minimum of 1.8 bar for 60%✨ of a Grand Prix distance or face a 16-second post-race time penalty.

Despite then remaining in🗹 the podium battle until the closing stages of the grand prix, Marqu🧸ez failed to reach the minimum number of ‘legal’ laps.

It is thought that Marquez and Gresini might have tried to argue that Enea Bastianini’s turn one pass on the #93, which ca🍷used Marquez to sit u𒐪p and run wide on lap 21, was a mitigating circumstance that contributed to the Spaniard falling below the 60% threshold.

Some rider෴s also spoke of the𒀰 wind causing an unexpected loss of tyre temperature during the grand prix, which was held in an air temperature 3 degrees lower than the Saturday Sprint and a track temperature 10 degrees lower.

Ultimately, Marquez was ruled to have been running a front tyre pressure 'lower than the parameters advised by the official supplier' and the FIM Stewards duly applied the standard 16-s🧜econd penalty.

That penalty drops Marquez from fourth to tenth in the Assen classification, also meaning the loss of 7 wor🌟ld championship points.
