Will be an incredible upset if he does but I think not. Top 5 at best.

Binder overtakes Fabio! Not something I expected to see this season. Zarco is holding on in the top 5 well too.

I don't understand how the commentators think Pol's crash was Zarco's fault, he was always alongside him and held the inside line.

Morbidelli starting to struggle on tyres, Binder looking a chance for the win now. Would be incredible if he pulled it off

they have to drive on the outer road in one turn within x laps

so same as a time penalty, but arguably more fair

Considering the flip in form this track has produced, makes you wonder how Marc would have gone. Probably would have made it a snoozer.

First time since 1994 that a non Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki or Ducati has won a MotoGP/500cc race. Cagiva in that case.

First non Italian or Japanese manufacturer since 1973 - Konig!

amazing what MotoGP can give once their dominator is out for a while and the factory teams are struggling

What a win for Binder and KTM. Even Oliveira did well.

As for Pol/Zarco, that was Pol's fault as he went wide initially and then ever so slightly closed the gap. Just didn't give Zarco any room. Not sure what he was expecting there... :roll:
