Many drivers fell this weekend on the Misano circuit, some like Marc Marquez several times during testing, but not in the race where the young Honda driver managed to win at the finish against an excellent Danilo Petrucci. Others fell several times during the race before having to abandon.
Some like Jorge Lorenzo were thus spared during practice, but not in the race when he occupied first position with more than 4 seconds ahead. There were a total of 55 crashes during the three Grand Prix races, including 23 in Moto3, then 23 also in Moto2, and finally 9 in MotoGP.
Over the three days of the Italian weekend, we arrive at an impressive total of 141 crashes, adding to the 55 races 33 on Friday, 27 on Saturday and 26 during the warm up on Sunday morning. The previous record dates from the Portuguese Grand Prix in 2010 with 130 falls.
