Spielberg

Rider Yamaha Fabio Quartararo failed to gain points in the sprint race MotoGP Austria 2023. Quartararo thinks he doesn’t deserve to be rewarded long lap penalty.

The French racer started the 14-lap race at the Red Bull Ring Circuit from ninth position. Quartararo was affected by the chaos that involved a number of drivers in the first corner so that he slipped to 20th place.

Quartararo then improved his position by moving up five ranks. However, The devil had to carry out a long lap penalty after being declared to be driving irresponsibly.

The 24-year-old racer overtook Aprilia’s wild card racer, Lorenzo Salvadori, from the inside, causing a collision. Salvadori fell before being dragged along with his motorbike into the gravel.

Finally, Fabio Quartararo had to settle for finishing 15th in the 2023 Austrian MotoGP sprint race with a difference of 22.3 seconds from Francesco Bagnaia, who won. Quartararo initially felt that he deserved to be punished, but he felt otherwise after watching the replay of the incident.

“Before looking at the pictures, I felt I really deserved a long lap penalty. However, looking at the pictures now, I feel I didn’t deserve that penalty,” Quartararo was quoted as saying Autosport.

“However, that is not my job. My job is only to race by giving out 100% of my abilities,” continued the 2021 MotoGP world champion.

“When you have a lot of trouble overtaking, you have to find a way out. It happens. Of course, I was at my limit from start to finish. This is something that can happen, but at least we can have a good pace,” Quarterly add.
