Jack Miller’s Harsh Criticism of Technical Systems After the Hungary Chaos: Front Devices Must Be Removed
Pramac-Yamaha rider Jack Miller achieved the best result of the season thanks to luck following a crash during the Hungarian Grand Prix. However, immediately after this success, he criticized the technical systems he encountered during the race. Miller claimed that the front holeshot device system endangered the motorcycle’s control, especially behind the pile-up crashes during the start. Coupled with the challenging track conditions and future expectations, the rider's harsh statements sparked a new debate in the motorsport community.
Start Crash and the Critical Point of Front Devices
Australian rider Jack Miller stated that he clearly observed the events at the start of the race. According to the rider’s claim, during Jorge Martin’s crash, he saw the front device attempting to engage while the motorcycle was launching upwards. Miller emphasized that stopping such a movement is nearly impossible. This raised serious doubts about the functioning of the safety systems at the start. This experience highlights the urgency of technical regulations.
Track Conditions and Technical Difficulties
Jack Miller pointed out that the new and slippery asphalt on the Balaton Park track was part of the challenging conditions. He reported that riders had to perform unnatural maneuvers in the first corner. He stated that it is technically impossible to ensure the weight transfer necessary to prevent the front wheel from locking up. The view prevailed that safety systems may not always be sufficient on such difficult tracks. Furthermore, he stressed that the rear devices used for slow corner exits, which are critical for riders, operate under a different principle than the front devices.
Future Demands and Plans
Jack Miller argued that the current systems must be completely changed. He stated that the front holeshot device, designed to prevent front wheel locking, should automatically disengage during the braking phase of the first corner. He expressed that if this system does not disengage, riders face the risk of losing control of the motorcycle. While emphasizing the importance of these technical demands, Jack Miller also shared his plans for the future. The rider, currently ranked 20th with 11 points in the championship, indicated that he does not plan to return to the Balaton Park track next year and prefers Brno, which is more suitable for the Yamaha Yamaha.
“It was a good day for us. We were a bit lucky in the first corner and we took full advantage,” said Miller.
Defensive Struggles and Track Preferences
Riders who could not keep up with the speed of the leading group implemented an intense defensive strategy to hold onto the group for 24 laps. One rider emphasized the difficulty of this defense with the following assessment: “He passed me on the straight, and then braked right beside me, so I couldn’t turn the corner. When you are about 15 km/h slower and the line is blocked, defending is almost impossible.”
Jack Miller also expressed a clear view regarding track preferences. For riders who face difficult track conditions, a decision was made not to return to Balaton Park next season. This decision was made taking into account the performance of the Yamaha motorcycle and the characteristics of the track.
