Explained: The error that Jorge Martin made to crash out of Spanish MotoGP
“If he w꧑as on the racing line, on the 🧸left, that wouldn’t have happened"
The precise error that caused 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jorge Martin to crash out of the Spanish MotoGP has been analysed.
Championship leader Martin crashed out of the lead at J꧋erez, at the halfway stage, with Francesco Bagnaia directly behind him.
Bagnaia held off Marc Marquez for victory, to further punis♑h Martin’s first ܫerror of the season.
“[Bagnaia] put the pressure on Jorge,” Sy🐲lvain Guintoli analysed for TNT Sports.
“He was in his slipstream, on his side a little bit on the straights, on the approach to Turn 💙6.
“That pressure made Martin make a mistake.
“He was trying to cover and he was going to the right side of the track, then coming back to the left, that stopped the rear 🎃slip. That’s why he crashed.
“Jorge is trying to cover the inside. So he’s goi꧙ng to the right of the track.
“He starts coming back to the left, braking. That means his rear t൲yre steps out of shape really, really♓ late.
“Then recovers the grip, and that pushes the front♚ and makes him crash.
“If he was on the racing line, on the left, that wouldn’t ha𒆙ve happened.
“On the left he would have got rear slip, rear slide, on brakin🌄g very early on, then carrying it 🥂into the corner.
“He wouldn’t have inconsistency of rear slip, and no push to t🙈he front tyre.
“It was Pecco putting pressure on Jorge, and making him make a mi🧜stake.”
Michae🐲l Laverty said about Martin: “He looked like he was so strong. On the brakes into Turn 6, he was probably the strongest rider out💎 there.
“But he a꧑sked too much. Th⛎e front tyre locked on him.
“Jorge has been th🐭e man in control this seaso🐻n. This is his first indiscretion.
“He’ll be feeling it tonight. Frustration, more than📖 anything.
“But he can hold his head high. He hasn’t got the MotoGP podium around Jerez but he was c🌞ertainly fast enough for it.”
Pramac rider Marti🌜n remains at the top of the MotoGP standings🉐 despite a point-less grand prix at Jerez.
He is now 17 points ahead ofꦜ factory Ducati rider Bag𝔍naia, the reigning champion who edged him to last year’s title.
