Jack Miller (EG 0,0 Marc VDS) found some good pace early on in the Austrian GP, before the Queenslander then crashed out of contention on Lap 20 after a couple of warning signs. Having taken a slew of top ten finishes this year, it was a disappointing end to the weekend – but Silverstone will soon be on the horizon for the Aussie to bounce back quickly in his consistent 2017 season.
Jack Miller, DNF: “The race was going really well until I crashed on lap 20. I had really good pace early in the race but then I started to lose some rear grip, it felt like the tyre was overheating in the final sector, I had couple of warnings that I was losing grip into turn nine. Then it stepped out under braking and then overloaded the front and I tried to hold it up on my elbow but to no avail. A disappointing end but I had a strong race until that small mistake. Now I’m looking forward to Silverstone and being in top form.”
