Redding Furious At Petrucci: Says 'The Problem Is His F***ing Brain!', Briton Riders Fail In Argon Race

It was a disappointing race for Pramac Ducati MotoGP rider Scott Redding and Danilo Petrucci at the Arago race this year. Redding blamed the loss at Petrucci that he even blurted out profanely for his teammate's failure on the race. What went wrong?

Last Sunday's race at Briton during the Aragon event, Petrucci was given a ride-through penalty because he crashed while on the track. Petrucci then claimed that the crash was due to his issues with the bike. Although he blamed the automobile, Redding blurted out and said, "Yeah, of course. The issue was his f***ing brain."

Ouch! Redding was quite disappointed that his teammate was able to get him out of the race, reported Motor Sport. In fact, Redding said that if he was able to have a 10 percent margin during the race, he would have made it through to the finish without any mishaps. When he held out a long time into Turn 12, he allegedly came down thanks to Petrucci's aggressive move.

According to Redding, Petrucci's racing strategy had not just ruined his game but other racers' games in the past as well. He referred to Petrucci's racing as a move that always came late, very keep, and frankly unfair.

In other news, Auto Sport reported that Redding had lost respect for his comrade in the race because of his performance at Aragon. When the crash happened, Redding was able to get back on his bike and race hard but was already behind the pack. In fact, he only finished 19th in the race, two placed behind his team mate Petrucci.

Furthermore, Redding also claimed that not only was he not impressed with Petrucci's driving, he was also very disappointed with the fact that his own teammate ruined his chances at winning the race. He was even more disappointed when, after the race, Petrucci did not even bother to apologize to him even though they were teammates.

Disappointed with the turnouts at Aragon, Redding warned that if Petrucci would ruin his race in the future, he would not give the 10% margin for his teammate and would do the same thing to him the next time they see each other on track.
