Beast impressive. All those VR46 Academy laps paid off between Bagnia and Beast. No one wheelies better than Rossi
Instead of like great ride to get to the podium, he was like just imagine if you qualified better, you could have won.
I don’t believe Enea is in the VR46 club or training. Pretty sure RedBull offered him a contract at a young age where Dovi took him under his wing and Rossi couldn’t get Monster to pull the trigger on him so he’s been on his own. Even better in my opinion.
That is one way to interpret it. The way I took it was he used what he said to point out that today Bastiani was one of the fastest guys out there. More a poorly worded compliment than a cheap shot.
Damn Aegeter tried to Capirossi his way into a MotoE championship? Now I'm disappointed that the WSSP guys did not fully capitalize on his absence.
It must have been camera angle, because yes, it looked like it, but I believe at this point it's all electronic. You get on it, it sends a message to race control and there's no avoiding the penalty.
They didn't give Miller or Quattro a warning even though both went wayyyy wide, so you can definitely avoid it
The penalty comes after a certain number of infractions. I don't know that I've heard/read about actual number, but I believe you get a track limits "warning" after three trips onto green, then 2 more times gets you a long-lap penalty. One or two trips onto green, no biggie.
To be a bit pedantic, any green on the last lap is a penalty but not always positional (see Binder in Austria where he received a three second penalty).
