Binder was punished for similar at Assen in the last ra🔯ce before the summer break.
Mo▨toGP Stewards confirmed afterwards: “No exceeded track limit - tyres were not touching the green as sensor was not triggered, verified by camera.”
Ducati also insisted the rule stipulates that track limits ar🔜e only relevant if the rider behind is close enough to potentially overtake, which Binder was not.
KTM s🙈poke to the stewards about the Bagnaia incident to find out if🐼 the result should relegate him one place, to behind Binder. But to no avail.
