Monster Yamaha riders Al෴ex Rins and Fabio Quartararo b🐠oth suffered arm pump problems in Sunday’s Spanish MotoGP.

The forearm pain was caused by the ‘he💝avy’ handling of the M1, with its riders struggling to make the bike turn during 25 laps꧒ of the Jerez circuit.

After his Sprint heroics on Saturday, when ܫhe progressed from 23rd to 3rd only to be demoted by a tyre pressure penalty, Quartararo could only climb as high as 13th in the grand prix. Then faded to 15th due to the🐎 arm pump.

“I didn't manage to get the same start as I had yesterday,” said Quartararo. “We had an issue with rear grip, and the𒀰n the bike became really physically tiring to ride.

“I had pain in my arm [arm pump] because I was braking too hard, and the last ten laps I was not able toﷺ brake anymore, so I had to slow down.

“It was a really tough race, I would say. We are missing a lot🔥 on the rear grip and turning, so hopefully 🔯in tomorrow's test we can change that.

“I don't expect a big, big step, but hopefully we do find an improvement to feel better on the bike and be faste🌠r.”

While Quartararo famously suffered arm pump while leading at Jerez in 2021, prompting surgery, Rins struggled with the same issue on Sunday and revealed he has experienced some arm pump si♉nce his first race on the M1 in Qatar.

How🌟ever, Rins could maintain his pace and inherit 13th from Quartararo.

“Starting from last p🌺osition was not easy, but we did a better start than yesterday. I recovered some positions, and then I was behind Fabio for almost all the race,” Rins said.

“Then 🅰I saw he started to struggle [with arm 🌠pump] just like me, and I was able to catch him and overtake him.

“For sure, this is not the result that we want, but this race was important for us because 𒁏we took a lot of information.

꧋“For tomorrow, we have many items to try. So, let's keep going and let's keep working!”

Team director Massimo Meregalli confirmed: “Our riders had to start from the back of the grid agai🌱n today, so the race was always going to be difficult.&nb🎐sp;

"On top of that, both Álex and Fabio were struggling with the heaviness of the bike, because in low-grip conditions they have tꦿo ride the bike more physic🧔ally.

“At this track you have to use the throttle and the 𒅌brakes a lot without any rest🐓, so this made this race even more demanding for them. It was a big fight for them to manage the last third of the race distance.

“There is clearly still a lot of work to do for us, so it's great tha🐻t we have a test day tomorrow and a whole race weekend's worth of data that we can put to good use.

“We have many new items to try, but we have to prioritis🐻e the components that are the most vital, which are aerodynamics, an updated chassis, and some electronics settings.”
