Let's start by stating the obvious: Fabio was extremely unlucky to get caught up in that nasty race incident, but he was extremely lucky to walk away from it. It was a big relief to see him back on his feet again so quickly and to hear that nobody got seriously injured. A restart after a big accident is always difficult for the riders, but it's part of racing. Other challenges in this race were the high temperatures as well as tyre degradation towards the later stages. Fabio and Álex did well to deal with all of this and ride at the limit whilst preserving their tyres. This sixth and eighth place are solid results, so we wrap up the second triple-header in a positive way. We now fly back to Europe. A week off is well deserved for the riders and the team. We will use it to recharge ahead of the season finale.
