Alex Marquez: “For me, if anyone could avoid that contact it was him, as he knew I was there."
The pair dramatically clashed over third place when Marquez ran wide into Turn 12, with five laps to go.
"I had returned to the line and was riding on the inside, my head was already straight and that's when I felt the contact and that the bike was going straight,” Alex Marquez said in a press release by sponsor Estrella Galicia. Speaking more in-depth to MotoGP.com, Marquez said:"Well, I'm fine. I have some impact on the left leg but nothing is broken.
“I was on my side of the bike and we had that small contact that made me pick up the bike and crashed together. I didn't see that anybody was coming. He closed a lot the line from the outside to the inside. And that's it. We end the race there and I'm sad for both.”
