Fall of Bagnaia! The Italian went to the ground in turn 4, luckily without consequences

In addition, Quartararo was forced to enter the pits there is a problem with his motorcycle

GREAT BRITAIN GP / FREE 1So far Alex Rins has marked the best timeclosely followed by Miller and Bagnaia

10:55Green light! The pilots went to the track to mark their first records

10:52More or less in the same position is Pol Espargaró and his Repsol Honda RC 213 Vwhere more is expected from the official Japanese team, although it is true that everyone knows that the 2022 prototype has not been the most successful in its evolution and they have the second part of the season to try to solve all or many. to the problems that have accumulated in the present
The Repsol team awaits the return of Marc Márquez like “water in May”who recently left an optimistic and positive message on his social networks by recalling a phrase of the American boxer Muhammad Ali who said “don’t count the days, count the days” That is the prism through which the eight-time world champion motorcycling
faces his recovery to return to competition, where there are plenty of places for the San Marino Grand Prixat the “Marco Simoncelli” circuit in Misano Adriatico, where some very important “tests” will be carried out after the race to prepare the 2023 prototypes

10:52A key asset in the build-up to this second half of the season could be in the hands of Maverick Viñaleswho was on the podium for the first time with the Aprilia RS-GP at TT Assen, which could be an incentive for the rider from Roses and a very important help for his teammate Aleix Espargaró in the fight for the world title The riders KTM officials , the South Africa
Brad Binder and the Portuguese, Miguel Oliveira, also have work ahead of them and pending accounts, because more is expected of them than what has been achieved so far in the season, so the Mattighoffen engineers must have worked hard during the summer trip to make that step that their ride.

10:52In addition to Johann Zarco, who is always “in the fight”, we must not forget “Pecco” Bagnaia He has the same achievements as Fabio Quartararo in 2022, although his regularity is far from what is required to aim for the title, but the fact is that with 225 points still in contention, the math still supports intentions of the transalpine pilot
The same achievements as Bagnaia were his compatriot Enea Bastianini (Ducati Desmosedici GP21), who will compete with the Spaniard Jorge Martín (Ducati Desmosedici GP22) this August for second place in the official Borgo Panigale manufacturer team, which will decide the matter, as announced, at the end of month

10:48All of them are far behind in the points table compared to Quartararo and Espargaróso any result that allows them to deduct points from both is a victory and in the case of Rins and Mir a victory will give them back some of the “joy” Suzuki’s announcement took away from them of their departure from the competition. at the end of the 2022 season
Although none of them will have trouble finding a “home” on another team, Well, in the case of Alex Rins, his arrival at Honda as a driver for Lucio Cecchinello’s team has already been confirmed, but under the “umbrella” of Honda Racing Corporation (HRC), or what is the same, directly assisted by factory Japanese, where it seems that his current partner Joan Mir could end up, but in his case in the position of Pol Espargaró

10:47Although it is true that Aleix, who arrived full of energy thanks to the amazing comeback he starred in at TT Assen,
will have the added advantage that Fabio has to go through that long lap lanewhich would at least make him lose a few seconds and, perhaps, contact the race leader in the first change and thus be forced to return
This situation can also be taken advantage of by the “big” representation of Ducati riderswith the Frenchman Johann Zarco and the Italian Francesco “Pecco” Bagnaia in the lead, but also the Suzuki drivers, Alex Rins and Joan Mir, who often find themselves “very comfortable” in this situation

10:43‘El Diablo’ crashed into Espargaró at the start of the race in the Netherlandsthat led to the imposition of a “long lap” penalty to be served during the British race, the first of nine grand prix left to finish the 2022 season, giving the Aprilia rider a definite advantage to close the gap , if one knows how to exploit it.
Only 21 points separated Quartararo from Espargaró and both stand out, with about two grand prizes ahead of their immediate pursuers, so it’s important for either of them to get a positive result from a visit to His Graceful Majesty’s Island

10:41How are you! We will start the live of
first free practice in the MotoGP category of the British GP which will take place this Sunday at the Silverstone circuit

Aleix Espargaró (Aprilia RS-GP) will have a golden opportunity this weekend the motorcycling world championship “reopened” by following the world leader, Fabio Quartararo (Yamaha YZR M 1), with a penalty imposed by the Race Direction after the disaster that co-starred in Assen
