"When it happens, it's magic. If it doesn't happen, it's tragic."

So poetic, coming from Johann. 🤝🏼

Pecco's incident was horrific. Its amazing that he doesn't have any major injuries.

[andrewshore]

If the first incident involving multiple bikes hadn’t happened, I think the second incident with Pecco would’ve ended very badly. The first incident created some vital space, probably saved him from something far worse…….he’s been lucky today

[sri_harsha_d]

The flashbacks of simonchelli...crashes like this pull me back to the harsh reality of how risky these races are...hope everyone involved will recover quick mentally and physically.

[HighFlyingOwlOfMinerva]

Impressive that despite that *huge* highside and Binder riding over his leg, Pecco did not get any fractures or worse. Man must have had multiple angels on his shoulders today.

[markoarkaina]

That was horrible, doesn't matter who you support, hope everyone is ok.

[jacksparrow-ieuq]

Man, if Marquez say that was a scary crash, it should be really scary 😂

[metink.]

Maybe Enea saved pecco by taking out so many riders 🤷🏻‍♂️ Big tragic moment and thankful that no one has serious injuries 🍀🤲🏼

[sanatarium]

Todays amazing protection gear saved Pecco from loosing a foot or even worse. God what luck that he was on his back at the moment and his shinguards were at the exact and perfect position when Binder drove over his foot. Holy smokes, I am not religious - but he had an guardian angel somehow.

[samblack]

Getting your legs run over can be career ending. He is a lucky dude to be lining up again this season.

Well said Zarco💪

[terrybuckwalter]

An ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY UPDATE!!! Thank you, MOTOGP!

[SourCandy]

Winner of the day is Aplinestar boots. I want what Pecco wears.

[christiansollner]

Marcs turn on it.. "I saw him brake and thought lets see how he manages that"😂

So happy Pecco didn't spun around another time to have his head where his legs were😢❤

[piumisandarenu]

Marc's comment on 'MotoGP family' is so nice ☺

[JimJones-gdjy]

Road racing warriors ! all of them ! 👏👏

[frandance]

What a horrific mess! So glad Pecco is not serously injured,

[fabianvansteph]

After the News im so happy Pecco isnt really injured und maybe we see him next Week in Misano on Track ! For La Bestia all the best an quick recovery after the surcery !

[clairtonrompato]

That could be very tragic. Last week we lost two riders here in Brazil on a similar crash.

[frisiandude]

Thanks for the headsup btw MotoGP, i was a bit worried about Pecco, so thanks fo the updates ;-)
