Moto3: Mick Doohan ‘in shock’ as Jaume Masia escapes penalty in Sasaki title clash
🉐Masia won the 2023 crown with a round to spare after putting ඣseveral block passes on main rival Ayumu Sasaki, who was then sent wide by Masia’s Leopard Honda team-mate Adrian Fernandez.
Responded to a post by Sa꧃saki on Instagram, Doohaওn wrote:
“I’m in shock, no penalty for the riding standards shown by the winning rider, and team. Racing should be hard, but fair, the winner diﷺd not win on talent, he knew he didn’t ha🐟ve your talent. Sensational ride Sasaki, you gave it all.”
Some of the encounters between Masia, Sasaki and🔯 Fernandez can be seen below:
