The incident was not investigated.
Enea Bastianini won the Emilia Romagna GP in Misano with a last lap overtaking against Jorge Martin. The official Ducati rider attacked at the Rio curve, forcing Jorge Martin to pick up his bike. Both ended up long, Martin in particular, and Bastianini also put both wheels over the kerb, a fact that according to Marc Marquez should have led to a penalty.
During the broadcast ‘Flexi Bike‘ on air on the channel Youtube Spanish journalist Nico Abad reported the thesis of the future race director Simon Crafar (who is currently the official pitlane voice for motogp.com and who will replace Freddie Spencer from 2025).
“Crafar said that such a move would be a drop position move at any point in the race except the final lap.“the words of Nico Abad reading a message on his smartphone. So according to what was said on the broadcast for Crafar if an episode like this occurs in 2025 on the last lap there will be no penalties, on any other lap, however, Bastianini would have lost the position in favor of Martin.
