🗣️'Preparing to go on the outside of Pecco, I did a highside.' MotoGP British GP winner Aleix Espargaro was “very close to crashing” at Farm curve on the last lap, which set up his wild Maggotts overtake on Francesco Bagnaia ⬇️
Having shown strong pace in the pre-season and with the expectation to fight for more victories following his breakout year in 2022, Espargaro admits he has been too ambitious in 2023 so far.“So, I made too many mistakes; I crashed in Argentina, I crashed in America, I lost a lot of points.“But it doesn’t matter, you have to be fast on Sunday. So, for one reason or another I was not able to really match my speed with the results.
“But I was happy with my performance. Today I was super committed, had good pace, had a good opportunity in front of me.” “So, then I was able to prepare the pick-up a little bit earlier. Actually, to do the pick-up in the acceleration is still one of the points I have to improve a lot.
