When Ben Spies' engine exploded along the main straight whilst running second in Sunday's Indianapolis MotoGP (pictured), it caused som🐟e scary moments for those 𝔉behind the Texan.

While Spies' Yamaha team-mate Jorge Lorenzo passed into second without t🐼rouble, the growing cloud of smoke around turn one caused major vision problems for those next in l♏ine.

"After Ben's engine broke I couldn't see anything And I couldn't see where Ben was," said Aꦛndrea Dovizioso, who moved from fourth🙈 to third after Spies' retirement.

"It was so dangerous for me and🍷 Casey and Bautista. Also, when the smoke was gone, I had all the oil in my visor, so I didn't know if I had oil on the tyres as well."

Stoner, who lost a place to Stefan Bradl as he ran wide through the smoke, a𒅌dded: "I found myself in the middle of the smo🦂ke, unsure where I was going and what I might hit and we lost positions again."

Doviz♔ioso went on to finish third and Stoner fourth.
