Petronas. I just hate losing, and
in the six championships I've

wins, race wins—whatsoever."

Championship after a disastrous
day for Red Bull KTM Factory
Racing's leading challenger,
Sacha Coenen.
Coenen suffered a major
get-off on the second lap of
the first moto and retired to the
pits, holding his shoulder and
collarbone area. (He broke his
collarbone earlier this season.)
However, he returned for moto
two and was riding well, fighting
