Jorge Martin demands “review” of rule after long lap penalty in Austria
Jorge Martin acc༒epts long lap Sprint penalty was ‘fair’

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jorge Martin accepted the long lap penalty that dropped him out of the victory battle early in the Austrian MotoGP Sprint, but thinks ‘they need to review this r♊ule’.
The Pramac Ducati rider was in the lead when he became embroiled in a braking battle with title rival Francesco Bagnaia as the pair charged towards the chicane, on lap 2 of thওe Saturday race.
Martin’s rear wheel rose higജh in the air, forcing him to release the brakes and run wide.
Although he re-joined behind🦂 Bagnaia, Martin did not give up the required 1-second (relative to his 'average normal time🐻' through that sector 'as calculated by Race Control') and thus received the long lap.
Dorna clarified that the average time for each rider is "computed from the same race", excludin🍎g lap 1, "which is why there was a delay before Martin was issued the long lap".
'"The [1-second] time they must lose is calculated as the disparity be𓆉tween the sector time when☂ they shortcutted and the average sector time established in the same session.
"The sector by which they must lose 1 second is calculated to🥃 allow them to pass at least one intermediate timing point - so they can see an intermediate split time on their dashboard to show how much they have lost/gained and still have time beforeꦬ the next timing point to lose the necessary time."
quotes Martin as saying: "For sure the regulations are like this, but I thought, ‘OK, I lost time, [because] I was first, now I'm second’. Not because I went wide, I was second because I let him go [ahead],”“[The penalty is] fair, because it's in the reg༒ulations. But for sure I think they need to review this rule.
"Because if you lose time and you let💝 another rider pass in a race you lose the show, you lose a nice battle between two top guys."
When reigning champion Bagnaia saw🌃 how close Martin was at the end of lap 2, he knew the Spaniard would receive a penalty.
"When the lap finished and I saw that he was 0.3s behind, I said, ‘OK, he will get a penalty’, because he di🐎dn't lose 1 second,” explained the reigning double champion.
“For sure, when you cut a chicane, you are already losing time. But rules are rules and they ✅say that if you cut, you have to give back 1 second, and he didn't.”
Martin served the penalty on lap 🍷8 of 14, costing him around 4 seconds and dropping him behind Marc Marquez. But he later regained second place when the Gresini rider crashed out.
Bagnaia and Martin ended Saturday🌠 level on🉐 points at the summit of the MotoGP championship.
But on Sunday in the grand prix, another Bagnaia victory, followed agai𝐆n by Martin, means the reigning champion left Austria with a five-point lead at the ♍top.
