There is a strong push in the MotoGP paddock to reinstate warm-up sessions for all grand prix classes, not just for premier-class machines, following the tragic Moto3 crash between Jose Antonio Rueda and Noah Dettwiler. The crash resulted in both riders sustaining significant injuries that required emergency hospital transfers. Rueda suffered a severe concussion, bruising, and a fractured hand, while Dettwiler faced the need for multiple surgeries. The decision to eliminate warm-up sessions for Moto2 and Moto3, and cut MotoGP’s session in half, was met with criticism, as these sessions are crucial for setup adjustments and bike testing before races. The absence of warm-up sessions has heightened pressure on riders, as they may face unexpected challenges during the race itself. The incident has sparked a debate within the paddock about the necessity of reintroducing warm-up sessions to improve safety and prepare riders adequately for races.
