MotoGP FP4 red-flagged after Alex Rins' Suzuki catches fire
The first signs of the Suzuki engine problem occurred wh♚en Rins ran wide at Turn 10 due to fluid leaking onto his rear wheel. Replays also showed small flames in the belly pan.
The Spaniard was seen looking downwards but didn't spot the issue until the flames ไhad grown much🐽 larger, as he accelerated out of Turn 12.
Looking down once again, Rins realised the dange𒊎r he was now in and bailed off the bike on the entry to Turn 13.
Rins escaped unharmed and marshals promptly extinguished the flames, but Johann Zarco fell from his Pramac Ducati on the oil left a🤡t Turn 10.
The track is ꦛcurrently being cleaned before FP4 will resu🔜me at 14:50 local time (6:50 UK).
Peter has been in the paddock for 20 years and has seen Valentino Rossi come and go. He is at the forefron🍒t 🙈of the Suzuki exit story and Marc Marquez’s injury issues.
