    Re sprint: A solid result from Marc considering he’s 5 minutes out of surgery. A stellar effort by Aprilia.

    (Do I need to avoid spoilers or is it ok to be more specific ?)

        In which case I think Raul has thrown a cat amongst the pigeons if the rumours of him being out of a seat are true.

        While there’s no doubt the Aprilia is the best bike on the track finishing ahead of all 3 other Aprilias is the rider not the bike, and he was very convincingly in front of Martin, a full second gap is fairly emphatic.

          It’s still too early to tell but hopefully he builds from this. If Ogura does go to Yamaha then there is a strong reason to keep Fernandes but who knows…

          2027 lineup is already crazy so anything can happen.

            Yes, 2027 lineup will be interesting, particularly given half the seats haven’t been publicly stated / confirmed by the teams.

            Pecco leading the race wasn’t something I was expecting though

    What a race from Raul :)

    It wasn’t the most thrilling sprint after the first few laps but it was a nice result for a few riders. Hopefully today there is more action :D
