After his confrontation with Espargaro, he has hardly improved for the Yamaha rider. After leaving the main lap after a visit to the pit lane, De Strubben bit him again when he brutally climbed to his 12th Grand Prix lap. He then finished Quartararo’s run, before going to the medical center for a checkup and an x-ray for left shoulder pain. There, he was free from any fracture and was declared fit.
