The start of the 2025 MotoGP Americas Grand Prix was plunged into chaos due to changing weather conditions on the build-up to lights🦩 out.

Rainfall around half an hour before the MotoGP r♔ace was due to start prompted all but three riders to head to the grid on wet tyres.

Then, just seconds before the warm-up lap, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Marc Marquez bolted from pole to pitlane to🃏 get his dry bike in the hope that enough people would follow him and trigger a delayed star♒t.

This ultimately happened, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:which was fortunate for Marquez as he would have been forced to serve a ride-through penalty had the s🌟tart not b🦹een delayed.

But some were left angry at being denied the opportunity to capitaliꦺse on their correct gamble, with Trackhouse team boss Davide Brivio furious about the delayed start after Ai Ogura elected to start on slicks.

While the rules surrꦏounding starts had been changed following a similar situation in Argentina 20𝓰18, is another rethink needed?

“Understandably, there were some really angry people there,” Senior Journalist Lewis Duncan said on the latest Crash Mo❀toGP Podcast.

“Ai Ogura, [Enea] Bastianini and Brad Binder had put slick tyres on and Davide Brivio w☂as furious. He was absolutely livid that ‘we’d made the gamble here, why can’t we start the race? They didn’t’.

“He was ab🃏solutely livid with it and I’m sure there were a couple of others as well.

“This rule will obviously🧜 be revisited because none of what was put in the rulebook was followed, even to the point of the 10 riders thing because it doesn’t seem like there were 10 riders who left the g🤪rid.

“So, it’s a tr꧂icky one. You can argue that if they went out on wet tyres, it wo♑uld have been too dangerous, so they did this on safety grounds.

“It’s so, so tricky to actually police, and this 🦋is 𓂃an unprecedented situation.

“But I do 🍷think the stewards and the FIM have to look at this and clamp down on it and you꧙ just cannot leave the grid unless your bike is broken.

“So, you have to take the start and if that means you’re on the wrong tyres and you have to change after la🍃p one and lose all your time, tough.

“That’s the decision you’ve made, you h♈ave to live with it. I don’t know why that wasn🔯’t the rule in the first place.

“If you’re on wet tyres on a dry track, you can wobb𝔉le around, you’re not going to be in danger.

“This will rumble on for a while and I think there will be a change to the reg♏ulations because it caused too much confusion.”

Podcast host and social media manager Jordan Moreland added: “The conditions were so fast in changing, [Pecco] Bagnaia talked abo🧜ut it after and he said he looked up at Turn 1 and on the grid they could see it was dry.

“Th🤪e whole situation how it played out, I feel sorry for the three riders that went for slicks. It’s similar to the Jack Miller thing [from Argentina 2018], they’d got it spot on.”
