Falls Mar Weekend for Joan Mir and Luca Marini at Indonesian GP

Joan Mir and Luca Marini faced setbacks at the Indonesian GP with crashes preventing them from showcasing their and Honda RC213V's potential. Despite extensive preparations, Mir and Marini could not avoid multi-rider accidents, leaving both riders disappointed but uninjured. The next challenge awaits at Japan’s Motegi Circuit.

Joan Mir and Luca Marini experienced a troublesome weekend at the Indonesian GP, with crashes halting their efforts to display the true potential of the Honda RC213V. The Repsol Honda Team's arduous work in preparation fell short, snatching hoped-for highs despite their intensive labor.

Mir's race was disrupted early at Turn 2, where he had to stand up and veer wide to dodge falling riders ahead. As he focused on regaining lost ground, a mishap at Turn One of lap 13 ended his race. Despite being unharmed, Mir was left contemplating what might have been in a race where only 12 riders finished.

Marini's encounter with bad luck came even quicker, involved in a multi-rider crash at Turn Two on the first lap. His performance had promised a result akin to the previous weekend, but he too faced disappointment. Uninjured, both riders now look ahead to the Japanese GP at Motegi Circuit, aiming for redemption.
