Aleix Espargaro has called the penalty Enea Bastianini received during the Catalunya MotoGP as ‘ridiculous, embarrassing’.
After already taking aim at Bastianini for his role in the turn one incident immediately after the race, Espargaro has since doubled down on his ciritisicm of the penalty awarded to the Italian.
"Everyone can make mistakes, I can be the next one. But if you cause an incident like this, on the first corner? Throwing this amount of riders? One long lap penalty is embarrassing." "It won’t be different," added Bagnaia."The difference is that Barcelona is more risky because we arrive in fifth gear and the corner is 90 degrees, so there’s a higher percentage of incidents."
