Are you saying because they apparently couldn't find what's wrong with the engine?

Yes, mechanical on the last lap while closing in on Deegan sadly and that also got him a far outside gate pick in the 2nd moto.

It was smoking while sitting next to track. It was cooked. Probably call it an electrical issue.

By that you mean it threw a valve and it went through the cdi box?

Engine quit, was clearly smoking on the side of the track. 

If you haven’t noticed; KTM have a long history of saying “nothing to see here”.

honestly, no. Was he close to catching him? I just found it very hard to believe. Correct me if I’m wrong.

Yes Prado was reeling Deegan in, I don’t think he would have quite got him, but his engine gave out before he had the chance.

Deegan said he got arm pump toward the end of the moto and they were going to change the set up for moto 2. He was loosing 3-4 seconds a lap the last few laps

I'll translate that from deegan speak to engrish- "pushed too hard early, ran out of steam at the end"

can't blame Prado for the bike breaking.....he certainly had a shot at passing Deegs before his bike quit. too bad it didn't happen

Ian Harrison, being a total pro admitted to Lewis that the engine failed.

    I am not a KTM fan, but I would be happy to see them win a championship just because of my respect for Ian Harrison !
