The 25-year-old explained that he had to retire after a visor tear-off strip from Quartararo was sucked into his Ducati at the Emilia Romagna and Rimini's Coast Grand Prix.
“I am very sad because I had started well and we could have had a good race, we had all the right conditions to make it,” said Miller.
“Unfortunately, it was nobody’s fault, it was a very unlucky day because a tear-off entered the airbox.”
