The British MotoGP at Silverstone was a race filled with several twists and turns, intense battles, aggressive riding, and an unfortunate crash. Fans of the sports were provided with some quality entertainment over the weekend.

The weekend started with rains and a wet track taking center stage of the chatter all around.

Qualifying hero’s race ends after a fateful crash

Saturday’s qualifying for the MotoGP made the headlines for all the wrong reasons. The practice session and qualifying race saw multiple crashes leading to an abrupt end of the race for many riders. Officials deemed the track to be unsuitable for a race but still went ahead with it as per schedule. Italian rider, Marco Bezzecchi, the winner of the qualifying in Silverstone under extreme conditions, was raring to go and stake his claim for the British MotoGP.

He started the race in pole position but quickly lost his position to Jack Miller. Bezzecchi fell to third place soon after but was able to gradually secure his position back. In the pursuit of reclaiming the no 1 position, he attempted a gutsy overtake while chasing Bagnaia that led to his eventual demise in the race. Touching a top speed of 205mph, he lost the front end while braking, which caused him to fall and crash.
