168澳洲5最新开奖结果:MotoGP riders and legends of the paddock have told BT Sport what a big highside truly feels like, and tried to explain🌱 the sheer feeling of horr🍒or…
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Fabio Quartararo: "It is the most dangerous crash you can have in MotoGP. I once landed on my fe𓃲et and broke both bones."
Randy Mamola: "It happens so quickly, you just hope that you don’t leave the bike. You are like a cartoon character trying to 🙈grab onto s🌠omething!"
John McGuinness: "There is no way of sugarcoating a highsideಞ. Horrible, horrible. Waiting for the impact is the worst bit, as you fly throܫugh the air.
"My biggest one was when I broke my hip at Oulton Park - it was a really amateur crash. It flicked me into next week! I landed on my hip, broke my femur, it was unpleasant! I have three big screws in my hip whi🐠ch remind me everyday. It is li☂ke a toothache in winter.
"It isn’t♏ safe - racing is not safe. We believe it is safe, we think it is safe, we have airbag technology."

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Aleix Espargaro: "You can do a highside quite easily especially if the track is quite slippery. The only thing worse is when you cꦗrash in the middle of the track and a bike hits you. It is difficult, in that case, to protect riders."
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Jack Miller: "It just shoots you through the moon. It’s not fun. As you leave the seat you immediately feel the airbag deployed as you fly through the air upside-down. It gives you a tiny bit of relief that there is something between you and the asphalt🃏 as you hit."
Niall MacKenzie: "Everything goes𝕴 into slow motion. It’s not like ‘bang, y𝔍ou’re on the floor’. Your thought process slows down. Sometimes it’s okay, sometimes it’s not."
