A 'cooked' Pol Espargaro admits he needed the 'bad moment' of returning to MotoGP action at Silverstone as part of his recovery from serious injury.
Pol Espargaro has said he was “cooked” after the MotoGP British Grand Prix, but “needed to pass” this “bad moment” as part of his recovery from serious injury.The Tech3 GasGas rider had been out of action since suffering multiple back and jaw fractures in a crash during FP2 for the Portuguese GP, making his return at Silverstone last weekend.
"I'm cooked. Well, after 10 laps I was cooked," he began."After the first 10 laps I was completely burned out. I think the first 10 laps I find myself behind Augusto [Fernandez] and I could follow him for the first few laps, and I think that was the problem. "But I've been in that situation before with other injuries. Normally in the pre-season you spend two months off of the bike, and then you go to Malaysia and on the second day you are dead, with just two months of not riding and no injuries.
