Fabio di Giannantonio explains how a “chain reaction” of incidents saw him crash out of the Catalan MotoGP.
Fabio di Giannantonio’s Catalan MotoGP race took a turn for the worse as he dropped from sixth to eleventh on the first lap. Unfortunately, he was involved in a chain reaction incident on lap 2 that led to his crash at Turn 1. Contact between his teammate Franco Morbidelli and Marco Bezzecchi triggered the sequence of events. Francesco Bagnaia’s throttle adjustment forced di Giannantonio to brake, causing him to lose control. Despite the crash, di Giannantonio was thankful for escaping injury and looks to have a better weekend at Misano. This setback leaves him tied in points with Morbidelli in the world championship standings. Morbidelli, who also crashed, will face consequences for disregarding marshal instructions.
