Aleix Espargaro advises Franco Morbidelli to "concentrate" after grid crash at Valencia GP

Aleix Espargaro has advised Franco Morbidelli to improve his concentration following a crash at the Valencia Grand Prix that left Morbidelli with a fractured hand. Before the race began, Morbidelli accidentally hit Espargaro's Honda on the starting grid, causing Morbidelli to fall off his bike. Though Morbidelli initially continued racing from the pitlane, he later retired due to the injury. Espargaro sympathized with Morbidelli but emphasized the need for better focus during races to prevent such incidents. The stewards are yet to determine if a penalty will be given for the collision. Despite the incident, Morbidelli has not shared his perspective, and his team confirmed his absence from post-race activities due to the injury. Espargaro, also affected by the crash, had to retire early from the race due to bike damage. The relationship between Espargaro and Morbidelli has been tense, with past incidents further complicating their interactions on the track.
