Iker Lecuona, filling in for Fermin Aldeguer, crashed during the MotoGP Silverstone Sprint and blamed Franco Morbidelli's line for the incident. Lecuona said he had passed Morbidelli three times and could not understand the move, but stewards issued no penalty. The two could become Ducati Superbike teammates in 2027.

Been in that paddock long enough to know a shakeout when I see one. Three times he got past, then gets shoved onto the dirty stuff late on. I get Lecuona's frustration, but Morbidelli says there was no malice in it. No penalty feels right to me — this stuff happens in racing.

Forcing it with nine laps left is genuinely risky.

No details yet, but the swap itself was announced earlier.

No penalty seems like the right call to me.

Getting mad after being repassed three times is fair though.

Bold talk for a stand-in rider, Lecuona.
