Culpable for the earlier Turn 5 collision, Quartararo, much to his dismay, has been slapped with a Long Lap Penalty for this weekend’s fixture. As a result, there is some added spice to this one as the likes of Espargaro and Francesco Bagnaia (Ducati Lenovo Team) will be licking their lips at the prospect of reeling in his 21 point advantage. However, neither rider will get carried away with the Frenchman’s penalty, as the number 20 has already proven his pedigree at Silverstone with victory at the circuit in 2021.
