If you get to see a slo-mo...there's what looks like clutch discs flying everywhere. :o

For those that missed it.

Helluva race in person!  Wow!

MM raced hard.  JL actually showed up and raced hard (great to see!). VR...well, I dunno what happened there.

Didn't get a paddock pass, so no signatures for me.  Moto2 & Moto3 were awesome!!!!

Had a blast!  [Dolph]

I strangely feel at home in Spain. Was there about ten years ago.
Another good race. MM made a great front end save then let the hard front tyre warm up to temp before pushing again. Good to see JL get his confidence back.

Did Ducati gamble on soft tyres?

Cheers Kopf.
Had another look at the slow mo crash. You could see the clutch drum posts sheer off and clutch parts spat out (makes one consider the risks of exposed clutches). Then the crash impact flicked the plates into the air like ninja throwing stars.

Did Petrucci later get a penalty during the race for some passing infringement?
Edit: it was an incident with team mate Redding.

Petrucci jumped the start. The clutch coming apart would be the last thing you'd worry about with that impact.  ;)

Petrucci's ride through was because of the incident with Redding Kopf...says so in the link you posted, and was reported on motogp.com by the commentators.

Yeah. I missed that during the race. I was standing too close to the TV screaming at the screen.  :D That's why I posted that link. I swear they were talking about bringing him in earlier for the jump.

Monkey reckons he may have had a bike problem which caused the incident but Redding said the problem was Petrucci's "make the beast with two backsing brain". ;D
