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.”

PHOTOGRAPH. Two-time F1 champion wowed with $260,000 Christmas gift
Two-time Formula 1 champion Fernando Alonso added the new high-performance SUV Aston Martin DBX S to his car collection. The driver took delivery of the car, valued at more than $260,000, a few days before Christmas in Monte Carlo, where he was photographed next to the new product near the Aston Martin dealership in Monaco.
Powered by Mercedes’ 727 horsepower 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8, the DBX S reaches 100 km/h in just 3.3 seconds. The new SUV joins Alonso’s collection, which already includes the Aston Martin Valiant and Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR.
With 2026 rule changes approaching, Alonso and Aston Martin hope the new DBX S will signal the beginning of better times. The team’s new technical partnership with Honda and Adrian Newey’s experience pave the way for Aston Martin to challenge for top spot next season.

Lewis Hamilton reveals details of new F1 season preparation regime
Seven-time Formula 1 champion Lewis Hamilton has admitted he has had to significantly change his daily training regime as he gets older to cope with the physical and mental demands of the World Championship. The 40-year-old Ferrari driver is preparing for his 20th season in F1 and is the second oldest driver on the grid after Fernando Alonso.
The Briton stated that his preparation is now much tighter than at the beginning of his career, with recovery playing a key role in maintaining a competitive level.
“The regime has changed, it has improved. I still love running. This morning I ran 6 to 8 miles. Then I took an ice bath. But above all, the first thing I do as soon as I get out of bed is stretch,” Hamilton said.
According to the pilot, in order not to gain excessive weight, he limits strength training and prefers pilates, yoga and interval training. At the same time, there are two elements that he does not reject under any circumstances.
“Ice baths are not an option. Before, I didn’t really think about recovery: I just trained and got on with my life. Now stretching and ice baths are things I force myself to do every day,” Hamilton emphasized.
The seven-time champion athlete attaches great importance to mental health as well as physical training. He admitted that breathing exercises, meditation and yoga helped him cope with the stress of the 24-stage season.
The Ferrari driver concluded: “An ice bath teaches you to control your breathing and fight the urge to give up. This helps me stay positive throughout the year.”
