Watch An Angry Moto3 Racer Deliberately Crash Into Another Rider

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.
