MotoGP: Lowes, what a blow! Destroys the Aprilia

It was just before 1pm when the session was interrupted with a red flag after Sam Lowes crashed. The Aprilia rider went down at Siberia, wrecking his Aprilia. Luckily the rookie did not sustain any injuries, getting onto the second bike as soon as he got back to the garage.

Scott Redding and Alvaro Bautista also crashed at this same point of the track, also without sustaining serious injury.
