KTM's
Reality Check
T
he Misano MotoGP was without question
KTM's worst Sunday of the year. Pol Espar-
garo was the best-placed Austrian machine in
10th. Not one of their four bikes ever threatened
the top six, a reality check after Brno and the
Red Bull Ring's triumphs. "Stopping the bike
was the main thing, and I was always sliding. I
was sideways like supermoto from the begin-
ning until the end," said Espargaro.
