The Mooney VR46 Racing Team suffered a major setback right at the first corner of the sprint race at the MotoGP Indian GP, with one of its riders retiring and the other losing many positions.
Marco Bezzecchi started from pole position but was touched by his teammate Luca Marini, whose rear wheel lifted under braking, preventing him from avoiding the collision. Marini retired from the race, while Bezzecchi dropped to the back of the field.
Shortly after, also approaching turn one, Stefan Bradl (LCR Honda) crashed, being out of contention. Watch the incidents in the following video.
