RACE HOSTS: Aldiger investigation at Sepang

The daily report from the race stewards is in place and there are no further penalties in any category.

However, the situation with the incident between Aldeguer and Arbolino in the Moto2 race is not over yet. This may be due to Aldigeer's injury. Arbolino also limped in the pit lane afterward despite the help of a crutch.

Race supervisors will complete the investigation next Thursday in Malaysia.

MotoGP: Clarification on Marc Marquez

He crossed the finish line in eleventh place, just ahead of Marini.

For pushing Mir, Marquez was punished by having to drop one position. But Marquez didn't do that, because after going off the track (because of Marquez), Mir lost some ground.

So Marquez could have lost a few seconds and so he kept driving. After he crossed the finish line, the penalty was applied and he finished twelfth behind Marini.

He exploited a loophole in the rules.

I got ahead of Jack.'” [Miller] And I had the following under control. The result for me this weekend was two second places. Thanks to the wonderful fans here in Thailand. Next time things will go better.”
