John Hopkins: ‘Devastating, Beaubier should have been on the podium’ Full story 👉 Moto2
After a best finish of fifth during his rookie Moto2 season, the American took a debut pole position in front of his home fans at COTA, then a second-place start next time in Portimao.
Fast forward to Assen and Beaubier mounted a similar back-to-front recovery, climbing ten places in the opening laps before reaching a high of fourth, in the thick of the lead group, with just six laps to go. “I was feeling pretty good but I got in a little hot to the final chicane and clipped Ogura a teeny bit and that created just enough room for Vietti to try and get me going into Turn 1,” Beaubier explained.
“I definitely feel like I’ve made a handful of mistakes when we could have had some good results and hadn’t really had the luck on our side like with Portugal and even COTA. "It wasn’t the best of weekends practice-wise, but he always turns it around for the race. He had an amazing race, kept his head down and rode as we’ve always known him to be able to ride.
