Indonesia GP: Danish handed slow riding penalty, demoted to back of grid
KUALA LUMPUR: Moto3 rookie Hakim Danish Ramli will have to start the Grand Prix of Indonesia from the back of the grid tomorrow.
In the Indonesia GP, Danish Moto3 rookie Hakim Danish Ramli will start from the back of the grid due to a penalty for slow riding on the racing line during qualifying one (Q1). Originally qualifying 18th, Danish was warned by the MotoGP Stewards Panel for his actions hindering the laps of fellow riders Leo Rammerstorfer and Eddie O Shea.
Danish had a commendable performance by placing second in Q1, clocking a time of 1:37.980s at the Mandalika circuit. However, he failed to replicate that speed in the faster Q2 group, finishing 18th with a time of 1:39.619s. This penalty will see Danish start the race in 26th position, row 9. Red Bull KTM Ajo s Brian Uriarte claimed pole position with a time of 1:36.861s, closely followed by Liqui Moly Dynavolt Intact GP s David Almansa and Alvaro Carpe.
