Maverick Vinales: 'I'm especially sorry because we had a great opportunity to do well today'
The factory Aprilia star landed heavily on his back and was slow to stand up, before being helped away by marshals.
"Before the crash, I was pushing to see where the limit was in preparation for the final time attack, and to be honest I wasn't expecting a highside at that point,” Vinales said of his qualifying fall. However, there was still one RS-GP on the Sprint podium with Trackhouse rider Miguel Oliveira enjoying his best Aprilia performance with a close second place to Jorge Martin.
