Apparently it was a major crash and those who saw it were amazed he was able to walk away, although he was out cold for a while. There are videos out there if you search - I did notice his bike doing major cartwheels in the background of Marc's crash, so I think I'll pass on seeing what happened to Bez.

From what I understand Bez will be back at least for Philip Island

its been quiet on what happened to Bez(injury wisse I mean). I havent seen anything
Forum whore
This is what I found
He's rear ended 3 people in a year... I didnt realise that.“Marco is ok. We just got the news from Dr Charte that he was brought to the hospital for a scan and there’s no broken bones.
“He has a lot of pain, maybe the pain is also some of the two crashes: the one of Motegi and this one.

The aero makes it more likely. Looking at posted links it didn't scream over ambitious. It was looking like a sharp move till it all went wrong.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.

It looked to me like he misjudged the move, possibly trying to make up the places he lost at the start. A real bummer for him and Marc because they were both likely to podium.
But it happens and Marc has done it often enough to know that!

Agreed ,he was so much faster than everyone through there.He misjudged it,by the time he realised he was already overlapping MM. He sits up but its too late
Forum whore
That was his fastest part of the track I think. MM said that he (MM) wasnt slow there at that moment - but I guess "not slow" is relative.

Simon Patterson (the race motogp) on Pecco:
“If what I’ve been told over this weekend is right, then the only other option is that Pecco’s head’s falling off,” he added.
“And that they told him last weekend that he had everything he wanted in the world and it worked. And then he got here and for whatever reason, he stopped believing and it all fell apart again.
“Because I can’t think of any… that there is no other kind of solution that makes sense at this point. He’s not being deliberately sabotaged. So this is the most nonsense suggestion in the world. He’s not being deliberately sabotaged.
“He’s not riding a bike developed from Marc Marquez, because Marc Marquez didn’t have enough time on this bike and pre-season to develop it into anything. So it’s not working and what else can it be?”

My guess is he jumped on the bike expecting it to feel like it did at Motegi, and it didn't. I read somewhere that Pecco expected it to come right as the track cleaned up, didn't want any setup changes and that didn't work out.
He's probably so messed up now that he needs a good break and to ride something that isn't a MotoGP bike for a while. Maybe come to NZ for the summer? He'd probably have a great time on a Panigale on our tracks.

I think we also must quantify Pecco's with MM's performance as Marks was nowhere near where he usually is.
If Mark had been at the pointy end as usual he would not have been there for Bez to make an overachiever move on.
The Ducati was terrible for both riders it's just MM handled it a little better as only he can.
I don't think blaming Peccos head is an option for this round as he was riding the bike so hard, he fell, even tho he was last.
He was doing bugger all when the bike disappeared out from under him.
Fermin was the only Duc that looked 1/2 way good because he has still got a bit of Moto2 in him.
One thing I do know for sure, MM must be thanking the powers that be, the championship was tied up just before this round.

Its gonna be really interesting next weekend .Who will win it. Fermin again? Alex is due a good performance.Will Pecco find his head again? Will Bezzecchi be fit enough? Acosta,Mir,Marini???
Rins won in 22,Zarco in 23. Its kinda wide open

Somkiat Chantra for the win bitches.
No one on 2nd or 3rd.

Marc was 6th in the sprint after a long lap penalty. He would have probably been in the top 5 in the race without the crash. Pecco was nowhere.
But stay tuned, who knows what PI will be like. The Hondas may be in with a chance as it's all about cornering.
