**MotoGP Stewards Issue Official Warning to Alex Marquez After Misano Practice Incident with Enea Bastianini**

MotoGP Stewards uphold decision on Alex Marquez and Enea Bastianini clash

Alex Marquez annoyed Enea Bastianini during Friday's practice session at Misano

On Friday in Misano, Alex Marquez received an official caution.

The Gresini team member was scrutinized, and the FIM officials determined that he was moving at a slow pace on the racing line during the San Marino MotoGP practice session.

Officials determined that Marquez disrupted Enea Bastianini.

Since this was Marquez’s first violation of this type during the season, he received only an official warning as a penalty.

It was clear that Bastianini was irritated by Marquez's move.

This marks the second instance within a span of five days that the FIM stewards have evaluated the younger Marquez brother.

During an incident in Aragon on Sunday, he collided with Francesco Bagnaia in a severe crash. Fortunately, neither rider sustained any injuries.

It was considered a racing incident, but it didn't prevent a verbal clash between them.

Bagnaia expressed regret for his role in the altercation. Just five days after being momentarily trapped under Marquez's Ducati, he led the Friday practice session in Misano.

Following a less significant clash with a factory Ducati rider, Marquez found himself back in the limelight on Friday in Misano.

The Italian company’s policies were already being closely examined this weekend because their eight riders had differing objectives.

The events of Friday turned out to be insignificant, yet tensions are high as the Misano round approaches.
