I actually really rate him. Motogp bikes have changed a hell of a lot, tyre management is a steep learning curve, ignoring the extra tech and huge power. It is not like Marc jumped on a Ducati last year and won his first season on a Ducati? He finished 3rd.Which team was that? Gresini….Even with his talent he had to learn the bike, with lots of established Ducati riders taking time to adapt to the latest machinery too. Today, Fermin was half a second a lap faster than Marquez for several laps. The other (normally rather good Ducati riders) were nowhere. He started 6th on the grid? Then got past Acosta and Bez. No mugs.
