- Jonathan Rea suffers ‘no furt🔯her injuries, crash came as a big surprise’
- Alvaro Bautista ‘d💝idn’t expect tyre problem, it was really difficulಌt to lean’
“I was nearly off track, I did well to stay oꦰn. Then, Jonathan had a big crash, so I hope he’s okay. I was dropping back a little bit, but just before the red flag, I had a couple of good sectors to get back on my brother.
“I had some good speed, and the temperature was down a little bit. My focus in the restart was to make a good start, put myself in the firꦯst three or four positions.
“I knew Toprak wasn’t there, and when he is, you have to ride a little bit more defensively b𓄧ecause he’s always going to h🦋ave a pass.
“Once I got settled into the race, I was struggling to stay with Bautista a li🐲ttle bit and Michael.”
Like his efforts in the Superpole Race, Lowes grew stronger as the race went on and beginning pressuring Ba🌺utist𒉰a with just a few laps to go.
Lowes himself came under pressure from Andrea Locatelli who appeared to have greater speed than the to🌞p two.
But after a mistake 🔯from Locatelli resulted in him highsiding out of contention, Lowes then charged past Bautista with a brave move at turn nine.
Talking about the closing stages, Lowes added: “Locatell𒁃i passed me at Turn 4. 🌃He was going to hit the back of Bautista, so he went wide and then I managed to stay on the line, stay close to
“Alvaro because, in my head, I was꧟ thinking he was struggling to enter the corner because the grip was going. ꦦI knew I could be really fast through Turn 8 and into Turn 9.
“This was my chance to pass him and try to stop the bike into Turn 10 and 11. I had a little plan, and it w൩ent quite well.
“In the end, I had a lot more grip than Alvaro which allow💦ed m🧸e to make this pass.”
