Moto3

Moto3 is a difficult discipline but we didn't imagine it would be so ruthless since the revelation of certain images that leave you speechless. After Max Biaggi's mechanics blocking Tech3 driver Adrian Fernandez in front of his stand, in the middle of a qualifying session, we seem to want to release the embarrassing archives, revealing morals in the paddock at the lowest level. Here is the video which challenges and which confirms the feeling of Fabio Quartararo who has already pointed out that 90% of people in this environment should not be there...

The document was found on GP One and it concerns the pilot Tom Booth Amos with his team. It's the pilot who comments. He was in his first full year in the world championship and he took to his Twitter profile to clarify and comment on what had happened: “ the video that appeared was from the 2019 Thailand Grand Prix. There were many problems in the team that year and I had never spoken about it, I had remained silent just to try to keep my place for 2020 because my dream was to stay in this paddock.

Moto3: “people don’t know what’s going on behind the cameras”

This episode happened after the race, when my bike broke down following a mechanics error, I was asked not to say anything and to remain calm. I hadn't said anything, to anyone, not even Dorna and my management at the time. It's just one of the things that happened this year, people don't know what's going on behind the cameras ».

After this bad experience, Booth-Amos moved to the SBK paddock. Last year he finished 2nd in the Supersport 300 championship and this season he moved to Supersport.

The CIP team in which this person worked published the following message: “au sujet de la vidéo de 2019 sur le comportement de l’équipe, nous dénonçons fermement ce genre de comportement et nous voulons nous excuser publiquement auprès de Tom Booth-Amos. Un team n’est pas constitué d’une seule personne mais d’un groupe entier de personnes. C’est pourquoi This technician is no longer part of our team. Violence in any form is not acceptable in our sport and beyond. Nous avons pris toutes les mesures nécessaires pour nous assurer que cela ne se reproduira plus dans le futur.”
