They had already got him back on track. He entered the last stop in 8th place - surely they would have been better off coming back out in 7th place and working towards the front...

They didn't just short-fill him - if it was a regulation "short-fill" that last long yellow might just have got him home.

Anyway, can't say it was one of the great races, but I was over the moon for Helio - what a story that is!!!

I hope Vitor is ok... that was a nasty one...
