Marini: MotoGP should consider football-style approach to in-race incidents
Italian MotoGP rider Luca Marini had a promising start in the sprint race at Mandalika, but his chances at the podium were dashed during the grand prix due to a collision caused by KTM’s Brad Binder. Marini had to retire after serving a long lap penalty for an incident in India. Binder was also involved in another incident that led to a penalty, and both riders felt the punishment was deserved. Marini suggests that MotoGP should consider implementing a sliding scale for repeat offenders, similar to yellow and red cards in football. He also mentioned that Binder explained the circumstances surrounding their collision, attributing it to brake pad knock-back, which affected his ability to stop. Despite the incident, Marini is looking ahead to future races and discussions on safety measures within the sport.
