Saturday morning practice at the Malaysian MotoGP has been halted by a fiery accident for Pol Espargaro.
Scott Redding tried to warn Espargaro about a possible problem with his Tech 3 Yamaha shortly before the young Spaniard was launched🐓 from his M1, when the rear suddenly kicked out 𒅌at the apex of turn one at Sepang.
Espargaro was sent somersaulting before being carried away on a stretcher with a possible🐻 left leg injury. Other marshals used fire extinguishers to put 🐽out flames from his damaged machine.
The reigning Moto2 champion had also fallen earlier in the session. Once the track has been cleaned, FP3 will restart with two min✃utes left to run.
Espargaro is currently locked in a close fight for sixth in the world championsꦑhip with older brother A💛leix and team-mate Bradley Smith.
