Valencia Grand Prix, Ricardo Tormo, MotoGP, J.3, Jack Miller: “the red flag came too late, they tried to push until three quarters of the race”.

Everything happens in MotoGP. Including a Jack Miller which talks about security. We will remember that the question did not really occur to the Australian during the Argentine Grand Prix. But at Valencia, Sunday, this time he lost his duel against the rain. It is true that he was not the only one. With him, eight pilots had already failed in the gravel trap, and not the least. So the Pramac Ducati rider has it a bit bad…

Especially since there was a move to play after the second start given. But the teammate of Petrucci, also a victim of the downpour, had to resign himself to watching the spectacle from the side of the track. “ For me, bringing out that red flag after 16 laps was a farce » grumbles Miller that holds the top spot. " They should have taken him out five rounds earlier. The times spoke for themselves. They went from 1'42 to 1'44 then 1'45 in three laps. Things were pretty clear ».

But the 23-year-old pilot nevertheless restrains himself… “ They are doing their best, that's for sure... For my part, I was on my normal line in turn 3 with the same throttle opening, but I found myself in a puddle. I hydroplaned and crashed. I'm not making excuses or anything, but for example Maverick fell almost in a straight line. To me it felt like they were trying to go three quarters of the way ". Which would have avoided a new start...

He finishes : " a day to forget, but we are not the only ones to have had an accident. There were a lot of big names on the dropout list. It is therefore a shame to have seen the race end without Marquez or Viñales. Of course, I'm happy that Dovi won. And for Ducati. I will now focus on next season, which starts on Tuesday ". With a GP19 and the intention, in 2020, to push Petrucci outside the Borgo Panigale factory team...
