Jack Miller ‘got a little trigger happy, fired it at the wall’ Full story 👉 MotoGP BritishGP
The factory Ducati rider lost the front of his machine on entry to Stowe, at the end of the back straight, the scene of several Friday accidents.
“A bit stiff now – from five weeks off, to riding into a wall ain't great, but the rest is all good!” smiled Miller on Friday evening.“The medium felt fantastic, but I just got a little trigger happy at the end of the back straight,” Miller explained. “There was a big cross wind, right as the track sort of goes up and drops off. Where everybody’s crashed. I came in there too fast and was trying to stop it, wasn’t happening and I fired at the wall. So not ideal. I'm feeling pretty tender now!“But I was able to come back in, swap leathers, get back out on the soft tyre and post a decent time so I can't complain too much. We’re inside the top 10. It's job one done for the weekend. So now we just got to keep it going into tomorrow.
“So especially if there's contact or whatever, it's something that needs to be looked at, I think, in the future. Because yeah, it is pretty scary. “I also had a bit of a moment in there this morning and just trying to stop the bike before going in the gravel, even though you've got that runoff area, it's pretty tight.
