The Twitter account of the MotoGP.com site today sheds some interesting light on the small battle between Andrea Iannone and Marc Márquez during qualifying for the Australian Grand Prix.
Andrea Iannone tried to take the suction of Marc Márquez in a way insistent enough to annoy the latter.
So, not wanting this to happen again and knowing he was being observed, the Honda driver told his mechanics that he would pretend to leave.
And the maneuver worked perfectly, to the great dismay of Andrea Iannone who was very surprised to find himself alone on the track...
We will nevertheless note in passing the tension which reigns in the boxes during the qualifications!
The sneakiest moment of 2017!
