Jack Miller: "I was trying to stay in the fight and play the long game. But didn't get there"
But, unfortunately for the Australian, looking to build on fifth and top KTM in the Sprint, a mid-race crash left him out of the points in 19th.
Disaster struck when Miller, who said he hadn't felt contact from Marc Marquez a lap earlier, lost the front into the chicane on lap 11 of 28. “I had the bike pretty mellow, especially off Turns 3 and 5. Just trying to save the right-hand side of the rear tyre. So I was yo-yoing a little bit, but trying to stay in the fight and play the long game. But I didn't get there in the end.
“I didn't give up and kept pushing until the end. I wish we could have stayed on it, that's for certain, because I felt really strong at the end of the race.”
