Jakarta, CNN Indonesia —
Ducati rider Jack Miller furious after being hit by the defending champion Joan Mir from Suzuki in racing American MotoGP at the Austin Circuit, Monday (4/10) early morning Indonesian time.
Miller’s anger was seen after the race when the two chatted on the motorbike before returning to the garage. In the footage on Miller’s motorbike, the Australian racer gives Mir a stern warning.
In the second discussion on the side of the track, Miller was seen showing a gesture that was not happy with Mir. Every now and then the 26-year-old racer points his index finger at his own face while talking to Miller.
Not only that, Miller’s negative reaction was also evident from the attitude of the former Pramac racer. At one point Miller pulled Mir’s helmet, pointing at his interlocutor’s face. Mir looks to apologize to Miller, but the Australian racer continues to express anger.

Quoted from Motorcyclesports, Miller was angry because he was hit by Mir on the last 15 laps of the corner. Miller, who was turning left, was hit by Mir from behind which hit the left side of the motorcycle.
As a result of the collision, Miller, who was originally in sixth position, had to slump to eighth place after being knocked to the right side of the track and overtaken by Mir and Enea Bastianini.
Miller and Mir have had a bad relationship this season, especially after the collision incident at the 2021 Qatar MotoGP.
Miller himself started the 2021 American MotoGP race from 10th position. On the last lap the Australian racer tried to get closer to the front row.

However, the effort to get 10 points or more was lost after experiencing an incident with Joan Mir. This season Jack Miller has three podium finishes. After winning the Spanish and French MotoGPs, Miller finished third in the Catalunya MotoGP.
