Jack Miller explains cause of four-rider pile-up in Indonesian MotoGP
Jack Miller shares his side of the incident which wiped out thr💯ee𒅌 rivals
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jack Miller kickstarted a pile-up which wiped three other riders out of the Indonesian MotoGP﷽.
The factory KTM r♔ider took Aleix Espargaro, Alex Marquez and Luca Marini with him out of the Mandalika race on Sunday.
The stewards did not deem th๊e incident worthy of punishment, althou🃏gh Miller has taken responsibility and apologised.
Asked what went wrong, Miller responded: “F***📖! Your guess is as good as mine!
“It’s one of those things. I got away to a decent start, threade⛦d the needle at Turn 1, through to 2.
“I went in there side-to-side with Aleix and tried to keep the spe🎀ed, obviously, for the in♓side for Corner 3.
“As I changed over tജo Corner 3, [Maverick Vinales] was holding a tight line to cut under whoever was on his outside.
“My main f🌠ocus was on the battle in hand with Aleix from Turn 2. As we’ve gone into 3, I saw how close I was to Vini.
“As soon as I grabbed the front brake, she went 💯down.
“That’s all she wrote.
“It all closed up. Typical firs🔯t lap sort of ♓thing.
“I want to apologise to those guys, it was not my꧒ inten𝓰tion. It was a racing intention.
“I was trying to negotiate a million different things all a𒁏t once.”
'I was in the wrong, I made the mistake'
Miller thinks the stewards came to the correct de🐷cision to label it a racing incident.
“I saw, at ✤the end of the race, they said ‘no further action’,” he said.
“I agree that’s ﷽fair. I admit I was in the wrong. I made the m𒐪istake.
“I was the first to hit the ground. I d💯idn’t hit anybody.
“The reason I crashed was to not hit somebody.
“I don’t feel that I did anythi♌ng over the top. The bike shook on a change of direction.
“As I went down, Vini was tighter than I anticipated. I had to grab the brakes to avoid co⛦ntact. When I grabbed the brakes, she went down.”
Miller insists that these multi-rider clashes are likelier in the earliest laps if you 𝓰start far back on the grid.
“They are when you start 16th,” he said.
“It’s chaos back there. In the openin💙g laps, your only opportunity to make some decent passes.
“Because once you’re in a rhythm, it’s very difficꦡult to make the difference.
“You saw with Pecco, Franky, Bez - that group, it was super tough for🍌 any of the🌸m to do anything.”
