Fabio Quartararo’s frustration boiled over again at Le Mans after crashing out of the French Grand Prix, leading to a confrontation with track marshals - his second in as many race weekends – which resulted in a penalty to be served at the next round at Silverstone.
The Frenchman seemed poised for a potential podium challenge at his home race, especially given the progress Yamaha appears to have made, but in a chaotic, rain-hit race Quartararo crashed out and was furious with both the circumstances and the officials.
