Statements Michele Pirro Misano GP MotoGP

“After the start I suffered a bit in the first corners, and then I tried to recover and passed Danilo because I was a bit faster than him. I was trying to keep up with the other riders, but with six laps to go I lost the front at turn 14. I only had a simple crash, practically without damage to the bike, but in the fall the pain in my leg worsened, already injured while training on the cross bike, and I had to stop. I'm sorry because I could have finished in the top ten again in MotoGP like in Mugello."
