MotoGP hero Cal Crutchlow fires thinly veiled dig at LCR Honda engineers - Daily Star - Daily Star

The British ace suffered a tough afternoon at Le Mans on Friday, crashing at turn six.

Crutchlow is struggling with poor front feel which was the key contributing factor.

“It is like a broken record, we lose the front and that is it,” Crutchlow said.

“Don’t get me wrong as I wasn’t the only guy to go down in that session as you saw but the front and front feeling for me is way more critical than last year.

“Cal Crutchlow”

It is like a broken record

“With regards to how many crashes I had last year all of them were with the front except for one.

“So you can imagine my feeling this year is not great with it.

“I have a good entry in the corner and sure, I went in there faster, that is always going to be to blame as I went faster, a new rear tyre, a soft rear tyre, but in the end Marc went in there the same speed as me and didn’t crash, neither did Jorge.

“The bike is different to last year. Until I can find that feeling then it is going to be a hard uphill battle but at the end of the day if we went racing now, this afternoon, I feel I would be in the top five if I stayed on the bike.”
