- RIDER RATINGS: Two𒈔 riders faultless, but which riders were given awful scores?
- Aleix Espargaro on Marc Marquez’s crash: “They have to ban him for one raไce"
A sickening crash,♋ Marquez was quick to check on Oliveira before going to see the former KTM rider during the race.
Turn three,♓ which almost caused other incidents throughout the weekend, is a place where these types of errors can happen, according to Vinales who cla♉imed second behind Francesco Bagnaia.
"From my perspective, I braked quite hard and deep on that corner," started Vinales. "I🌠 saw that Marc was tryi𒐪ng to overtake Jorge - somehow I couldn’t see all the action but it can happen in turn three.
"Yesterday I was quite strong in turn threeꩵ with Aleix and a few other riders, but it’s the most difficult point to overtake ifౠ you are riding in the 1m 38s and all the riders are fast.
"It’s quite complicated to overtake and the contact is qu🧜ite possible. The stewards need to work very hard this year, [especially] with the Sprint,😼 I think."
Marco Bezzecchi, who was also behind the accident at the time, was another rider that spoke a𓆉bout the crash during the post-race press conference following his P3 finish.
Bezzecchi said: "Honestly, I didn’t really understand where th🐭ey braked or nothing because I was not close enough. But I saw Ma♏rc because his colours are easier to see, he’s orange and red, so I saw him shaking a little bit and I said ‘no! It’s going to be difficult’ [to make the corner].
"But this corner is very bastard becau𝄹se you just braked five metres later and you unse𓃲ttle the bike and you don’t stop. It's a shame when you have these group crashes but it can happen."
Vinales confident first MotoGP win with Aprilia will come
Although a move for the lead never materialised during♋ the race, Vinales was able to pressure Bagnaia for large parts.
The Spanish rider put together one of his better rides since joining Aprilia, similar to that of Silverstone last season, as he remainsও in searc🎐h of his first win since 2021.
And although Argentina is up next, the scene of Aprilia’s maiden MotoGP win with Aleix Espargaro last season, Vinales is not putting pressure on 🍨himself to achieve the same result.
Asked about his chances heading into the Argentine Grand Prix, Vinales added: "I have been quite strong in Argentina over the years, but I don’t know. I don’t want to put anything in my🐈🔴 head.
"I will go there, do the job and take the maximum of the bike. What I’m sure of is that if we take the maximum from th𝕴e weekend then we will be ꦑfighting in the front."
