Marini suggests “football yellow card, red card” rule for twice-penalised rivals

P1racenews AI automatic summary:


Luca Marini has suggested a new system based on football’s yellow and red cards for MotoGP riders who are penalised twice in the same race.

Luca Marini, who started from pole position for the first time, was competing for third place in the Indonesian MotoGP when he was knocked off his bike by Brad Binder. Binder received two long lap penalties for causing collisions with Marini and Miguel Oliveira. Marini believes that the second penalty should have been more severe, similar to yellow and red cards in football, in order to prioritize safety. Despite being hit by Binder, Marini retired from the race after serving his penalty. He also mentioned that his thumb injury, which he suffered in a previous race, was aggravated again in the incident. Marini expressed disappointment with his start in the race and losing positions due to Jorge Martin’s maneuver on the straight. However, he remains positive about his performance and hopes to have improved physical condition for the next race in Phillip Island.
