Fa🌌bio Quartararo has been hit with an unusual penalty for the British Grand Prix following his crash in the early stages of Sunday’s MotoGP French GP at Le Mans.

The 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:factory Yamaha rider s🎶tunned the home French crowd on Saturday when he stormed to pole positioꦇn for the second round running.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Fabio Quartararo converted that to a fourth-place finish in the sprint havi🙈ng led it for the first five laps.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:In Sunday’s wet flag-to-flag race, Quarta♔raro was one of a number of riders to swap to a dry bike after the warm-up lap and netted a double long lap penalty as a result under new rules.

Leading in the early stages of the 26-la🐬p grand prix, Quartararo was the first to dispense of his penalties and would have been in a strong position to capitalise.

However, he c🐲rashed at the final corner on lap four whe൩n the rain intensified and was unable to rejoin to head to pitlane for his wet bike.

Quartararo was seen in a disa♏greement with the marshals before tr🐬udging back to the paddock.

The stewards have taken a dim viওew of this, deeming Qua♊rtararo to "behaved in an irresponsible manner, disobeying direct instructions from marshals, causing potential danger to yourself and others".

As a result, he will have to sit out the first 10 minutes of FP1 a🐲t the British Grand Prix in two weeks and also pay a €2000 fine.

While this punishment may not seem grand compared to other penalties that could have been handed out, it does come at an awkwa🧸rd time for Yamaha.

It ♉debuted a new engine at the French GP which delivered a small top speed b𒁃oost to the M1.

Testing this at a place more deꦰpendent on power like Silverstone will be a key part of Yamaha’s run programme for practice at the UK venue.

Yamaha is also testing at Misano this week, where u⛄pdates and set-up ideas trialled there could find their way onto Quartarar൲o’s bikes for practice at Silverstone.

It's not the first tim🔜e Quartararo has had a penalty hanging over his head coming to a British GP. 

In 2022, he fꦆaced a long lap penalty following a co🐈llision at the previous Dutch GP with Aleix Espargaro. 

Commenting on his French GP prior to his visit to the stewards’ office, Quartararo told TNT Sport: “Yeah, I mean I think it was tri🌟cky conditions.

“We gave our best but I made a crash in the last cor🦂ner that I didn’t really expect, but many ride𝔍rs were crashing in this corner and unfortunately it was like that.”
