Marco Bezzechi is a rider for the Aprilia Racing factory team, which currently leads the teams' championship, while Aprilia is also leading the constructors' championship.
On top of that, going into this weekend's Czech Grand Prix, Bezzechi led his teammate Jorge Martin in the Aprilia Racing MotoGP rider Marco Bezzechi has been suspended for one race after a shocking physical altercation with a track marshal.However, his weekend and potentially the riders' championship took a wild turn after a crash in the weekend's sprint race.
If you've ever watched MotoGP, this happens all the time, but what doesn't happen is a rider getting into a marshal while trying to recover his bike.
The Italian rider appeared to slap the marshal twice as they attempted to recover the bike from the gravel trap.The sprint race was only 10 laps, and the crash happened on lap eight.
Even if Bezzechi had gotten back on the circuit, he'd be so far out of scoring position, unless it turned into the ultimate race of attrition in the final couple of laps.
Well, snapping like that certainly didn't paint Bezzechi in a positive light.
You've got to respect the track marshals because without them doing their jobs, you can't race.It's that simple.
Marco Bezzechi's one-race suspension could allow his teammate Jorge Martin to take a big chunk out of his championship lead.
And as if it couldn't get worse, Bezzechi was slated to start in P5, while Martin was going to start from P10, giving him a good opportunity to add to his championship lead.Now, Martin who scored five points in the sprint race has a chance to catch Bezzechi, who leads him in the standings by just 15 points.
