After early contact on lap one coming out of turn five, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Francesco Bagnaia again 🔥did battle in the closing stages of the gran🐼d prix.

Bagnaia, who had already been passed by Pedro Acosta after struggling as the race went on, w🍌as then attacked by Marquez ജinto turn five with a couple of laps remaining. 

But determined not to five up the position, Bagnaia snapped straight back on the inside of the eight-ꦆtime world champion, the problem, Marquez had barely ran off-line which meant c🌟ontact was made as they both went down.

Speaking about the incident, Miller already had concerns early in the race: "I kind of ﷽could because early on in the race when we went out of Turn 5 those two were absolutely banging each other.

“Coming out of Turn 5 they hit each other and every time they probably touched three or four times through the 🍸acceleration through six.

“Every time they hit the one on the outside was losing the front and the one on the inside was almost highsiding and I was behind tr💞ying to obviously go with the group, but I was just waiting for an absolute aeroplane crash in front of me.

"There w😼as no love lost there, they're all pushing hard at the beginning as we all were, but it obviously all boiled over there at the end.

“It's a hard place to pass this track, to pass nicely, and it's unfortunate what happened but that's racing and I'm sure those boy💛s will be back to fight in Texas."

Miller wasn’t the only rider ⛎to share his views on the dramatic crash as Aleix Espargaro called it a racing incident, with the caveat being Bagnaia could h♋ave done more to avoid it.

Espargaro added: "I saw it in a replay. For me it’s a racing incident. It’s always a difficult corne🐽r to negotiate.

“But I think Pecco could give a bit m💜ore space to Marc in order to av💯oid the contact.”

Enea Bastianini, who had out-performed Bagnaia throughout the entire grand prix, was surprised when he watched the clash in the cooldown ⛎room post-race.

When speaking about the crash between his fellow Ducati riders𒁏, Bastianini was keen not to lay blame o൲n any side.

"I don’t know what really happened,” stated Bastiaꩵnini. “But as you’re fighting, it’s always difficult to overtake and this kind of contact can happen."
