While eight riders had fallen before him in the wet and windy conditions, Vietti’s accident was a clear case of being ☂helplessly blown off track by a strong gust of wind as he started lap 9.

Instead of leaning into Turn 1, Vietti was pushed over the outside kerbing, then tumbled heavily after being launched when his Fantic kicked upwar♕ds as it crossed the pit lane ex🐼it.

Fortunately, Vietti, who suffered a fracture during a turn-one ac♈cident in India, escaped further injuries.

"Today, the conditions were really at the limit. I am surprised they le🧔t t♐he race start,” Vietti said.

“We wer💖e going w🃏ell until the crash. Unfortunately, I couldn't do anything about it.

“Some riders saw me fall and came to check on my condition afඣter t🏅he red flag. They told me that they managed not to slide by a miracle.

“I am sorry because there was the potential to bring home important points. We will get back the following weekend in�♍� Thailand.”

With conditions woไ💎rsening, a restart of the Moto2 race was abandoned and the following MotoGP Sprint was cancelled.
