all but conceded the title after a lackluster
showing in qualifying, stating, "Marc [Mar-
quez] is not here so it was a perfect situa-
tion to win the title. But we have lost 2017
and 2020 by the same mistakes." Having
failed to find any kind of comfort in the
wet conditions, Fabio Quartararo vowed
to go all in on Sunday from the fourth row
of the grid. "I'm in the mood to be ag-
gressive tomorrow, I will be. If I crash or
something it'll be for a good reason." All
the while title leader Mir appeared com-
posed. Asked about pressure, he replied:
"Pressure? Pressure is what is happening
with Covid or with people who can't pay
rent. I'm competing for a MotoGP title. If
it goes well, it goes well. If it doesn't end
well, then that's also fine for me. There
are many people having a worse time."
Briefly...
Francesco Bagnaia
crashed out at mid
race distance. It's
been a dismal end
to the season for the
former Moto2 World
Champion.
Mir (center) is now odds-on for the title. If you'd picked that at the
start of the year, you'd be pretty happy right now!
