“It looks like nothing came out of it,” Guintoli said about the important meeting to🐼 BT Sport.

“If I was a rider I would have gone in with my iPad, with footage from Jerez, ♒and s𒁃howed everybody! 

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fabio Quartararo was penalised for taking out Miguel Oliveira [in Jerez] but this was clearly a racing incident.&n♔bsp;

“Show them this image in front of the stewards and in front of all the MotoGP riders and a✨sk: ‘Why did you penalise me there?’ 

“Then they would explain. And all the riders would hav🔴e explained to [the stewards], because they would all agree, that actually this was a racing incident and there was nothing you could do about it.

“[The stewards] would have had nowhere to go. I don’t know how this meeting was ไmanaged but, if nothing came out of it, it wasn’t managed in the right way.&n𓂃bsp;

“Everything that happened in♊ Jerez - there was a lot to talk about, a lot to argue about, to find a better way forwar💦d. 

“We don’t want to ruin the🧸 show, we don’t want penalties like that.

“Quartararo had his race ruined, he could have done much better. The stewards need to be open▨ to criticism.”

Are MotoGP riders satisfied?

Mooney VR46 rider Marini raged: “We spoke about everyꦯthing. And they said that Pecco in Jerez, the drop one position [penalty] was correct for them.

“So why [in the sprint] dཧidn’t they apply the same penalty, the same rule, [when] Binder pushed me out of the track? And when Marquez hit Pecco when he overtook hꦫim? So another time, there is no consistency.

“It's really strange because at the end of their Safety Commission speech, I asked, 'if there is a contact and a rider hits the other rider and gains the 𝔉position, disturbs [them] and causes a consequence to the other rider, there is the drop one position?’ They say ‘♑yes’.

“So today there waꦓs a clear episode of this and they did not apply the rule.”

Aprilia's Aleix Espargaro said: “I don't wജant to talk more about the Stewards.📖 No meaning. From today until Valencia, please don't ask me because I will not respond.”
