‘Very sorry’ Espargaro explains galling late Barcelona error
“It’s a mistake that, it’s not admittable [acceptable] at this category. It’s completely my fault.
“My pitwall was too close to the first corner, it was the first one, so I had no time to watch the laps [counter], and the gap to Martin, I was pushing to the limit so I just watched the gap to Martin, +0.6, and then to watch the lap [count] I watched the [scoring] tower.
“And I saw L1, so I did one lap, and then I didn’t remember that here in Barcelona the last lap is number zero [L0], not one.
“So I closed the gas [throttle] on the straight.”
It's a shame. He did really well all weekend.
