Fastest on the opening day of practice at the Austrian MotoGP, Marco Bezzecchi’s day ended with a scooter ride with Valentino Rossi after running out of fuel.
The three-time MotoGP race winner ran out of fuel on his final time attack run before hopping on the back of a scooter that was being used by his team owner.
"We had a small problem with the bike just before starting the time attack and once I started the out-lap I was on the straight and saw on my dashboard that I had a problem," began Bezzecchi. "Because of this I finished the fuel and then I was downhill so I said I’ll go as far as I can. But once I turned the corner I saw Vale and stopped.
