Moto3 championship leader Maximo Quiles will miss the British Grand Prix at Silverstone after a high-speed highside at Club Corner in Q2 broke his right collarbone. He was sitting 11th when the crash ended his session, and now heads to surgery in Madrid still holding a 104-point championship cushion over Brian Uriarte.

That rear-end snap exiting Turn 18, Club Corner — I can feel it in my fingertips just picturing it. Losing the rear right after banking an 11th-place time in Q2 and highsiding hard enough to break your collarbone tells you he was still pushing for pole. Good thing that 104-point cushion is there, because CFMOTO Aspar just lost this weekend outright.
