"World champion? It sounds amaz-
ing!" Mir said. "It's really hard to find
the words at the moment, but I must
say thank you to so many people;
to Suzuki for this opportunity, I'm
so happy to give them a tle! To be
the person who brings them another
crown a er 20 years is an unbeliev-
able feeling and a true honor. The
en re team did an incredible job, and
I'm just so overjoyed with this cham-
pionship win. I've come a long way
since being a child with hardly any
money to go racing, and my family are
to thank for this. I worked very hard
to get to the top and this reward is
amazing. Today's race wasn't easy, but
I got the result I needed and I hope
to have a great end in Por mao. It's
me to celebrate but we must do it
responsibly."

"It was the best victory of the year,
maybe even the best one of my life!
It was a complicated race. I felt that
we had good poten al all weekend,
but then we opted for the hard front
Alex Rins blasted his
way through the field.
After qualifying 14th,
the Spaniard needed
to win to keep his title
hopes alive but the top
three were too far in
front at the flag for him
to get on the podium.
