MotoGP Japan: Joan Mir: “It’s a big shame”
After enjoying by far his best weekend of a torrid debut season a🌠t Repsol Honda with fifth place inꦓ India, Mir was brought back down to earth by 13th place in the Motegi Sprint (from 15th on the grid).
But the 2020 world champion 𓃲took advantage of the Sunday rain to rocket up the order to seventh place, a⛄fter swapping to his wet bike.
With the rain worsening, and his visibility depleting, Mir suddenly dropped to 13th on l🍎ap 12, when the red flags were waved.

“I had some visibility problems with my helmet unfortunately, it’s something I have never had in the past and today w꧙as the day,” he said. “It🐷’s a big shame, I couldn’t see so I was missing my reference points on track.
“When I was fighting with Miller I could see a bit, but then the rain came heavier, and it ☂was enough to stop me.
“I’m really disappointeﷺd because I think we showed that there was some good sꦑpeed there and we could have done something more.
“Now we have a week off to train and recover a bit 💫before we go racing again.”
Team-mate Marc Marquez finished in third.
