I was beginning to think it a not very exciting race, but it got hotter and hotter. I was on the edge of the seat by the end. It seems to me the sheer power of the Ducatis makes them very hard to beat in the right conditions. Although Rossi rode a great race, it was always going to be between Dovizioso and Marquez once Zarco dropped off the pace. It sounded from the commentary like Zarco's problem was poor tyre choice and that he was worried about from the outset, but I also wonder whether he lacks the mental stamina of Marquez, Dovizioso, Rossi and others.
Viñales was really impressive towards the end of the race when he got going.
