Explained: The error that Jorge Martin made to crash out of Spanish MotoGP
🤪“If he wa🅠s on the racing line, on the left, that wouldn’t have happened"
The precise error that caused 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Jorge Martin to crash out of the Spanish MotoGP has been analysed.
Championshiꦛp leader Martin crashed out of the lead at Jerez, at the halfway stage, with Francesco Bagnaia directly behind him.
Bagn✃aia held off Marc Marquez for victory, to further punish Martin’s first error of the season.
“[Bagnaia] put the pressure on J🎉orge,” Sylvain Guintoli analysed for TNT Sports.
“He was in his slipstream, on his🌄 side a little bit on the straights, on the approach to Turn 6.
“That pressure made Martin make a mistake.
“He was trying to cover and he was goin✅g to the righꦯt side of the track, then coming back to the left, that stopped the rear slip. That’s why he crashed.
“Jorge is trying to cover the inside. So h💜e’s go🌼ing to the right of the track.
“He starts coming back to the l♌eft, braking. That means his rear tyre steps out of shape really, r🙈eally late.
“Then recovers the grip, and that pushes the front and m🐠akes him crash.
“If he was on𒆙 the racing line, on the left, that wouldn’t have happened.
“O𝐆n the left he 💞would have got rear slip, rear slide, on braking very early on, then carrying it into the corner.
“He wouldn’t have i🔯n🍎consistency of rear slip, and no push to the front tyre.
“It w𓄧as Pecco putting preꦫssure on Jorge, and making him make a mistake.”
Michael Laverty 💙said about Martin: “He looked like he was so strong. On the brakes into Turn 6, he was probably the strongest 🧔rider out there.
“But he asked too much. The front tyre lo𓄧cked on him.
“Jorge has been the man in control this ꦺseason. This is🤡 his first indiscretion.
“He’ll be feeling it tonight. F🥀rustration, more than anyꦉthing.
“But he can hold his head high. He 𒀰hasn’t got the MotoGP ꦅpodium around Jerez but he was certainly fast enough for it.”
Pramac rider Martin remains at the 🐻top of the MotoGP standings despite a point-less grand prix at Jerez.
He is now 17 points ahead of factory Ducati rider Bagnaia, the reign🔜ing champion who edged him to last year’s title.
