First and hopefully last (for awhile anyways)
First time at that track. I guess a combo of lean, cold tires still, and off camber turn introduced my to my first spill.
Rolled and popped up like a meerkat. Too bad I couldn't pass tech again to get back out because I would have preferred another lap for sanity sake. I don't feel too horrible about it since there were a TON of crashes that day and I don't feel I did something drastically dumb to cause it to happen. |

Marquez crashed something like 27 times this season - so don't sweat it.
It's going to happen if you are pushing it, and sometimes if you aren't. |

I crashed early, like around 10:40am and I was the 5th person to crash by that time!
