the only bad thing is that work will be resumed next year and Marquez will rape the field

You´d actually prefer a Marquez domination instead of anyone can win this race on merrit?

Marquez has missed 2 races and has 4 DNF's this year. He might have been close to Fabio if he'd been consistent in those.

The stupid Jerez comeback after the injury last year probably cost him this year's title.

I don't prefer domination. I just prefer the era's greatest rider not being hampered by a prior injury. Winning while the best rider is out, I guess that's a merit too and when looking back at these season they will probably always have that kind of stigma.

Last year was definitely weird with multiple riders throwing away races, hence the no one wanting to win joke. This season Fabio has been consistent but then again no one else has been. This kind of inconsistency probably won't cut it when Marquez is 100% healthy for a full season.

Injuries are part of the game though. How hard you push is a risk/reward thing, and Marquez has been so successful in large part due to being able to take risks no one else would take. It was a matter of time that it would come back to bite him in injuries. If this ends up being the worst challenge he has to face as a result of the risks he takes across his career then he'll consider himself extremely fortunate.

I find amusing that he didn't got as many injuries considering how much he falls on practice sessions. Plus that Honda is a beast, or do you take the risks or you go slow

Darryn Binder takes out Foggia & Garcia on the last lap and Pedro Acosta is Moto3 World Champion.

Forget the MotoGP contract, D. Binder is a complete idiot until the bitter end.

Acosta was champion anyway by winning the race, but a fight till the last corner would have been nice.

Binder to MotoGP? Another pair of brothers in MotoGP then. Shame Rossi quits or we would have had 4 pairs of brothers in 2022.

He had to skip this one after an accident during personal training earlier this week. He has a concussion, the last race in Valencia is also in doubt.

Polish commentators smelled BS with that concussion and questioned if the arm injury hasn't flared up again.

Marquez will also miss Valencia, because he still has problems with his sight.

So one possibility is that he still has problems with his arm. He did win the last two races that he started, but yeah, the old injury could play up again.
Another possibility is that he actually had an accident on training, had a concussion, and has still not completely recovered. You know, like he and his entourage say themself.

Why would anyone want to doubt this and look for other explanations? And why would Marquez make up a story like this when he actually still has that old injury, which would not be a shame to admit?

So let's just agree on the concussion story and not look for anything that isn't there.
