Trackhouse Racing’s first MotoGP Grand Prix weekend at Silverstone ended abruptly on Sunday when both riders crashed out on lap one. Raul Fernandez and Miguel Oliveira started the race in 14th and 15th positions, switching places early on the opening lap. Fernandez lost control, causing Oliveira to crash as well. Fernandez attributed the incident to his choice of a hard front tire in cool conditions and with a full fuel tank at the start. He apologized profusely to the team for missing the chance to score points and cut short the team’s unique 75th-anniversary retro livery celebration. Fernandez expressed regret for the missed opportunity and acknowledged that they could have aimed for a top 10 finish. Oliveira, while uninjured, described the crash as one of those unfortunate racing incidents and emphasized that it was a matter of being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
