When Marquez crashed into Miguel Oliveira at the season-opening P🌄ortuguese MotoGP, he incurred a double long lap pe꧙nalty which Espargaro furiously insisted was not enough.

But Marquez has been absent through injury ever since and, as he returns for the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:French MotoGP at Le Mans, his appeal against the rewording of his puni𝓀shment has been successful meaning he will not face a double long lap penalty after all.

Espargaro, who initially demanded “to ban him for one race, min﷽imum”, reacted at Le Mans to : “🌳I don't have much to say about that. 

“A lot has already been written. It's not something I'm very interested in. 🏅;

“If it can happen to anyone? Yes, but how many times has it happened to hi🌊m and 𒁃how many to me or Pecco?”

And he clearly suggested that his🍎 fellow MotoGP riders are not critical enough of Marquez.

“There are many drivers, many, complaining that Takaaki Nakagami deserves a severe penalty, because he has had many repeated ones and th𒁏ere is no penalty,” Espargaro said.

“But there is no boom because Nakagami is not Marquez.𒅌 

“Nakagami has had a hundred times more [criticism] than Marc, but it's not Marc and it doesn't ಞcome out everyw⛦here. 

“And with Marc it's like they don't dare. 

“Why do we all dare with Nakagami and thꦍen we ask Fabio and Pecco about Marc and their answers are 'yeah, well..."
