Misano Moto2: Espargaro: Shock, shame at Fenati actions
Like most of the paddock, KTM MotoGP rider Pol Espargaro was stunned by Romano Fenati's actions in Sunday's Misan꧃o Moto2 race.
Angry after an earlier clash with Stefano Manzi, Fenati reached over and grabbed his🐠 rivals front straight while accel♐erating at highspeed on a straight.
Manzi kept control, with Fenati black 🐈flagged and later given a two-race ban. Manzi received a six-place grid penalty for forcing Fenati off-track in their earlier cla๊sh.

Black flag Romano Fenati for irresponsibl🧔e riding
"🔯This is something that ♌we hope to never, ever, ever see again in racing," Espargaro said. "This is not racing. I feel shame if someone watches the races on TV and sees a professional rider do something like that.
"I mean, you can be frustrated. You can be really angry. But this is something that riders ꦦcan♉ never do."
Speaking before 🦄the two-race ban was announced, Espargaro added:
"There is no [right] punishment, even a ban♐ of one or two races. A pro💦fessional rider cannot do something like that. I mean for sure Race Direction will take the measures they think. It's their job.
"But whatever they do, it's𒅌 not going to be enough be📖cause someone who does that is not a professional rider and there is no place in racing for riders who are not professional."
Valentino Rossi, whose VR46 team sacked Fenati midway through the 2016 season, said: "It'🌺s bad to see what happened because it's very dangerous, so is very good that nobody was hurt."
Manzi rides for Forward Racing, which Fenati is due to join next s🥀eason for the start of the team's new🥃 collaboration with MV Agusta. The deal is now said to be in doubt.

Peter has been in the paddock for 20 years and has seen Valentino Rossi come and go. He is at the forefront of the Suzuki exit story and Marc Marquez’s i💫njury issues.
