LCR Honda's 🥂St🌠efan Bradl was lefty mystified after falling while leading the Qatar MotoGP.

Bradl, who had qualified in seventh place, made a superb start and assumed the lead after Jorge Lorenzo lost the fron💝t on the opening lap.

The German rider remained ahead until he to🔯o slid off on the ninth lap at Turn 6, escaping injury.

"Actually it's difficult for me to express my feelings right now, Bra🃏dl said. "I did a very good job because I took a good start from the third row making a perfect first lap.

"Honestly, I was not expecting such a strong performance considering the issues we had in the💝 last days but for the race I felt strong and determined.

"Basically I can not say why I crashed because I made theও same manoeuvre of the lap before but I lost the front in turn six," he added.

"Luckily I am okay and the posit♏ive thing is that I have done a big step in the race. Many riders crashed on left corners so probably the humidity was too high and affected the grip level. Anyway lᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚet's go ahead to Austin, which is another track that I like very much."
