Movistar Yamaha team director Massimo Meregalli reit♓erated that they can fi𒁃nd nothing on the data to explain why Maverick Vinales fell on lap 2 of Sunday's Austin MotoGP.

The accid💧ent, while in a close four🌃th place, brought an end to a perfect start at Yamaha, having won both previous races.

"It was very unf🐎ortunate that Maverick's race ended early because, judging by the pace he displayed all weekend, he would certainly have been able to challenge for the victory," Meregalli said.

"We have checked the data and there's nothing str🌌ange o🌼r different from what he has done since Friday.

"The front clos🐽ed without any warning and he could not do anything to save it. It's a great pity🤡 because he was really confident on the bike, so we take that away from this race weekend as a positive.

"We're certain he 🍎will come back strong in Spain in two weeks' time."

With the data providing no clues, Vinales suggested that his 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:front tyre may have been the issue : "I'm calཧm. I know it was not our mistake. I know there was sღomething more."

Either way, the DNF cost Vinales the world championship lead to team-mate Valentino Rossi, who finished in second place between Repsol Honda riders Marc Marquez and Dani Pedr🌟osa.

"Valentino did a fantastic job to take a very important second place. His start was good and played a vital role. He positioned 🌠his YZR-M1 exactly right and this allowed him to chase the leading duo," Meregalli said.

"It was inevitable for him to go onto the run-off area after the incident with Zarco, but Vale's experience shone through again. He was quick to get his head down and at the end we ge🅺t to celebrate a strong second place, even after the questionable 0.3s penalty."
