Firstly, the Michelin\u00ae Grand Prix of France set another milestone with a new all-time attendance record of 311 797 MotoGP\u2122 fans making it through the doors of the Bugatti track this weekend. Then, the rain messed things up literally minutes before lights were out, as we saw many riders head back to the pit box to swipe bikes after the white flag was waved in the warm up lap. Red flag was then shown when the pit lane became too messy, with a quick start procedure planned. Then, the rain stopped, and started again, as we saw many flag-to-flags, crashes and more. The ice on the cake was when local hero Johann Zarco saw the checkered flag in 1st, becoming the first French rider to win on home soil in MotoGP\u2122 since 1954. Through the chaos, Red Bull KTM Tech3\u2019s Enea Bastianini ended that crazy race in 13th, after crashing out twice and having to complete four long lap penalties.<\/p>\n
Gara pazzesca! Oggi sono successe molte cose, con il meteo in continuo cambiamento: un minuto pioveva e poi smetteva. Abbiamo iniziato il giro di riscaldamento con gomme slick, poi ha piovuto, quindi abbiamo cambiato moto, e dopo \u00e8 stato un disastro, e abbiamo cambiato di nuovo. La situazione \u00e8 stata difficile da gestire per tutti, siamo caduti due volte, purtroppo portando a terra Pecco (Francesco Bagnaia) alla partenza, per il quale dovr\u00f2 scontare una penalit\u00e0 nel prossimo round. Ma alla fine, sono comunque riuscito a portare a casa qualche punto con il 13\u00b0 posto. Abbiamo cercato di dare il nostro meglio oggi, il nostro ritmo era forte una volta finito il caos, anche se avremmo potuto avere una strategia migliore fin dall’inizio, ma \u00e8 andata cos\u00ec! Concentriamoci sul fare un buon lavoro tutti insieme a Silverstone.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
