Proper racing this. These short circuits always produce lots of battles.

There's no questioning the Ducatis ability to corner. That move under MM was special.

Dovi starting to look good for the Champinship now. Certainly making Marquez work very hard for his points. Great race.

I love Dovi saying that he was listening to hear when Marquez opened the throttle so he could let him through and then cut n and get on the gas sooner. Certainly out thought Marquez there.

Both riders have matured. Dovi was always quick but far too reckless.

Dovi making Lorenzo look a bit silly for the money they pay him again, has a habit of that......
Remember: If in Doubt use Full Throttle, It may not make the situation any better, But it will end the suspense...

Lorenzo apparently used to much fuel in the first few laps and ended the race with 60ml left. Does look like he is getting to grips with the bike now though.

Interesting as the commentators thought Ducati were fuel saving so they could turn them up at the end. I really don't like racing that restricts fuel - let the riders fight it out!

Lorenzo did look better though :)
