63 FRANCESCO BAGNAIA
DNF MOTOGP
"First, I would like to apologize to my team
because today's crash was only due to
my mistake," Bagnaia said. "Compared to
this morning's warm up, I didn't have a
good feeling with the bike, and I made an
overambi ous maneuver in an a empt
to overtake Fabio. I was hoping that if I
passed him, maybe I could take advantage
of a possible mistake by Vinales to make
up more ground. In any case, I will reflect
on my mistake. The only posi ve note
today was Jack's victory, which makes me
really happy."
35 CAL CRUTCHLOW
15TH MOTOGP
"Honestly, the mistake made is I forgot
to press the launch control devices, so I
started really badly," Crutchlow said. "I
came from a long way back to the posi on
that I am in. I'm happy with the race that
I did, I couldn't have done any more. My
pace in the middle of the race was really
good, and I'm pleased with that. I think I
would have been in the top 10 today easily
with the pace that I had if I started in a
good way and also if I qualified in a good
way. So, I'm disappointed with that, but I
can be proud with the way I rode today."
Sometimes the cards just fall your
way. Despite not being happy with
his result, Fabio Quartararo still
extended his title lead.
Miller hoists it
up for the boys
in red across
the line.
