“The only positive is that we don’t have time to brood on today’s upsetting results, because we’ll move directly to Thailand' 💬 Suzuki boss Livio Suppo says the short gap in races means the MotoGP team can't wallow in its Motegi misfortune ⬇️
Coming away with another double DNF for the fourth time in 2022, team boss Suppo says the fact it will be racing again this weekend in Thailand is the only positive to take from his sad home farewell.
“Naturally, this is not how we wanted Suzuki’s home GP to go, and not how we wanted to say goodbye to all the amazing Japanese fans,” Suppo said in a team release.“Alex picked up some damage to his front wheel under hard braking on the kerbs and he had to pit in. “The only positive is that we don’t have time to brood on today’s upsetting results, because we’ll move directly to Thailand and start focusing on that.”Rins says his puncture came from a kerb strike on the opening lap when he was forced out wide.“But then on the starting lap, on the corner three, I was with no space and I started to brake on the exterior kerb.
“Everything was fine. But lap by lap I was losing the front, I was picking the bike up off the floor – completely losing the front.“Then in the box, on the data, they saw after four, five laps the front tyre started to lose air. “So, it looks like it was a puncture or the rim moved. For sure it’s a disaster. We had a good pace, everybody was a little bit insecure with the tyre choice, not much time to set the bike up. It is what it is.Read Also:
