Fernandez calls Bezzecchi 'unprofessional' after Indonesia sprint clash

Fernandez pulling no punches in public tells you something about how seriously riders take sprint-race contact — these half-points sessions carry real consequences and real frustration. The language he chose, 'unprofessional,' is a deliberate escalation beyond the usual post-race diplomatic grumbling, and it puts the incident on record in a way that invites stewards and the paddock to take notice. Bezzecchi, now with a factory Ducati seat to protect, can't afford a reputation for reckless racing building around him. How the series responds — or doesn't — will say as much about MotoGP's sprint-race governance as it does about either rider.
