Aleix Espargaro: “I was concerned that Morbidelli crossed a sacred line with children”

Aleix Espargaro (Aprilia RS-GP) suffered a serious crash in yesterday’s “Sprint” race. MotoGP Qatar Grand Prixadmitted that he retired because he was “almost dying of pain.”

“It’s in my DNA to always try everything. I ran three laps this morning and the pain was killing me, so I called Charte and asked her to do the best she could. , I asked for a bomb,” he revealed.

“I didn’t have any pain during the race, but I had cracked my fibula and all the nerves were inflamed.”, I was covered in blood and couldn’t feel my legs. There was no power and I couldn’t downshift or change gears. So I had to quit,” he said.

Regarding the problems that Jorge Martin was having, he revealed: “The bike didn’t accelerate at all. In the straights it was obvious with Aprilia. For example, we know what the Ducati does and when the bike doesn’t accelerate. “It’s all due to lack of traction. ”

“Aside from the obvious times, just looking at how he accelerated the bike, if you know anything about bikes; As I hit the finish line, I realized that the traction control was taking away a lot of power. This is due to the tires not working,” Espargaro explained.

Returns again on Saturday with ‘incident’ with Italian player Franco Morbidellihe emphasized. “My opinion remains the same, obviously I was wrong, my sending off was really terrible and I can say for sure that I never wanted to hit him on the helmet, I wanted to push him. Thing”

“If you look at that last part alone, I deserve that sanction. I’m not going to argue with that. It’s very ugly and I know I’m going to get a lot of hate now because… , because what I did was a very terrible thing.” I admit it’s ugly, but it’s a little unfair. Franco has been around the circuit for a year and a half and every race is frustrating. I almost fell twice because he was walking and I wanted to walk but when I tried to get into the truck again he wouldn’t let me into the piano and was like a bully. “That’s when I lost my nerve,” he recalls.

”Last week he called Mark a dog with his hand… Yes, my reaction was very wrong, I feel very sad myself, for the team, for the family, but I don’t think it’s worth watching just the last part.after that What really bothered me was that his comments included my family and children, and he crossed a line that was very sacred to me.said the Aprilia pilot angrily.

Regarding the injury, he explained that he will try to return to Valencia next week. “I’m very concerned. Miguel hit me in the leg very, very hard, so I was thrown off. His bike hit my tibia and fibula.”

“A fibular fissure is serious, but the problem is not the fibula.”The problem is that all the nerves and muscles are extremely swollen and filled with blood, and you can barely bend your knees. So it’s not up to me. If it’s a broken bone, you can run tomorrow, but if it’s made up of nerves and muscles, it’s very difficult. I’m going to do everything, three of our drivers can be in the top five in the world and I’m going to try,” Aleix claimed.

“Obviously it’s difficult to break a bone within four days, but that’s racing. Miguel apologized to me and that’s the reality,” he added.

Regarding his friend Jorge Martin’s options for winning the title, he was optimistic: “It can be overcome, it can be achieved. In our heads automatically there are 25 left, but there are still 25 left. You can save 37 people, but you can save 1 person.” This will give you a cushion. ”

“We are disappointed that Jorge lost a point today. Because he clearly knew it wasn’t his fault, but well, there’s nothing more he can do about it. He has to be proud of the championship he achieved, he has more than 400 points and he needs to go to Valencia with glory or death.”
