Jorge Martin said he thought of Luis Salom as he was falling at Turn 12 during Friday Practice at the Catalan Grand Prix, the same circuit where the Moto2 rider lost his life in 2016. Martin was slightly concussed and suffered bruising to his left forearm after following his bike into the air fence, calling for the circuit to extend the Turn 12 run-off area as a matter of urgency. He described feeling lucky to walk away.
