Fabio Quartararo tried to attack Aleix Espargaró in turn 5, but made a mistake and also brought the Aprilia rider to the ground
Fabio Quartararo could build a good attack at the start to take the lead from Francesco Bagnaia. It didn't happen. In fact, laps later, the Frenchman saw Aleix Espargaró overtake him. And it was in order to recover his position that the reigning champion tried an attack in turn 5, but missed.
Quartararo went after Aleix, but fell. The Frenchman pushed Aleix off the track at De Strubben, turn 5. The Catalan managed to stay on his feet, but dropped to 15th. 'El Diablo' got up and got back on track, but last.
The Panel of Commissioners soon announced that the incident would be investigated, while also announcing a punishment for Jack Miller, who would have to pay another long lap for irresponsible driving. Fabio, moments later, even went to the pits with mention of collecting the bike, but returned to the track. Moments later, the #20 crashed again and this time abandoned.
