Watch An Angry Moto3 Racer Deliberately Crash Into Another Rider

During practice for the Argentine Grand Prix, Aron Canet got so frustrated with a fellow Moto3 rider that he purposefully crashed into them

The practice sessions in any form of motorsport are important. However, since the final results don’t count for anything it’s not the end of the world if, say, you get held up by someone while you’re on a hot lap.

Moto3 rider Aron Canet thought otherwise though. When he was baulked by Makar Yurchenko, he decided that the best course of action would be to catch him up and clearly and deliberately take him out.

The only question is what punishment would be handed down to Canet. A fine? A grid penalty? A race ban? How about none of those. Instead, stewards deemed the act a ‘racing incident’ (despite the opinion of pretty much everyone else) and Canet got to carry on for the rest of the weekend as normal like nothing had happened.

He may have just ruined his future racing career by doing that. Teams wont be as enthusiastic to sign him knowing what hes done.

If you can’t deal with not being able to pass, you shouldn’t be involved in motorsport. If you are unable to pass, there’s a good chance that it’s because you’re not good enough, as opposed to it being entirely the fault of another racer.

Team advantage goes ahead of the advantage of an individual, although in this case it was just idiotic, this crash could have been used to give the rest of the team advantage if executed during the actual race

Could’ve risked insane injuries to both, but I guess anger usually doesn’t go hand in hand with reason.
