Honestly good seeing Marc back on the grid and seeing his emotional reaction after the race definitely makes you feel for the guy and all he fought mentally and physically through these last 9 months and it was like a weight lifted off his shoulders. Don't know how to feel about the new track limits crap and also that yellow flag rule, it's a bit F1 absurd like honestly and man that one qualifier lap from Pecco was amazing and how was he supposed to see the flag when he's looking through the turn and the bunker is on the opposite side, we are taught to not fixate, Dorna and FIM fucked up on that one and badly for sure. Great job by Quartararo and getting that Yamaha firing right from the get go but hope it won't be the same blunder from last season, Maverick just keeps finding stupid ways to fuck up and not help his case, if he keeps going the way he is, he will loose his seat after his current contract mainly with how much competition/talent is coming up through the ranks. Damn good race from Roberts and Beaubier in Moto2, those two are making great strides and are putting the US back on the motorcycling map. As far as Rossi goes man, he is unfortunately just looking like a fool now, he should have retired last year with the factory team and called it good. Being in a new team, new setting and just new everything overall it's not good for him, being as old as he is it's hard to adjust to internal change after having the same team for such a long time but well hopefully he can salvage some results in Europe cause man, so far it's been worse than his Ducati days, at least the bike sucked then so there was that excuse but he has factory parts and support so there's no reason for him to be in the back of the pack the way he is. Badass seeing Aleix Espargaro doing work with that Aprilia, those guys made a huge stride in the off-season and they'll be a contender soon, just need those couple extra steps but they're right there. Also hell of a salvage job by Pecco and Binder today, pretty good race overall. We'll see how things keep shaping up in Jerez now that Marc shook the nerves off and he keeps getting closer to fitness and all.
