There was further frustration for the Island's resident MotoGP star on Sunday.
Technical problems meant Cal Crutchlow was unable to finish the Catalunya Grand Prix in Barcelona.
The Ducati rider dropped out with less than half of the race completed.
It was a similar problem to the one he had at Qatar, with the bike switching from no power to full power.
The race was won by Marc Marquez, his seventh consecutive victory in this year's championship.
