Honda's Joan Mir climbed from 12th to 7th in the MotoGP Silverstone Sprint. He says a yellow flag for aero debris from Bezzecchi's Aprilia was misread during qualifying, leaving him with a worse 12th-place start than he should have had. Mir called it "a clever ride" but said seventh "is not something to be proud of," while noting he managed his tires well enough to pass Marc Marquez and Pedro Acosta late on. He is set to join Gresini Ducati from 2027.
