I know it's days after the event, but did anyone see the remarkable race at Silverstone. After Dovi was taken out and Rossi clearly didn't have the speed, one could be forgiven for thinking Marquez might be lapping people by the end. Alex Rins rode a fabulous race, sticking to Marquez like poo to a blanket. I was so far to the edge of my seat at the end of the final lap I was about to fall off. Who'd have thought Rins could pull off an amazing pass and an 0.013 second win? Amazing.
As the commentators love to say "The sport was the winner today". It's stupid because Alex Rins was the winner. What is good is knowing that Marquez cannot guarantee to have it all his own way.
