There are five Grands Prix remaining and, with five drivers combined for 49 points, including two co-leaders, we expect some exciting racing. But also to a general atmosphere which will become tense. Because arithmetic logic dictates that we concentrate above all on the first three of the general, grouped into sixteen points, which calls into question the fate of the remaining two more promised to the role of ally of the teammate rather than to that of of team leader. This is without counting those who want to win at least once before the end of this astonishing campaign...

And the first episode of this last chapter will take place this weekend in Aragon. Valentino Rossi will perhaps be there, while Dani Pedrosa will not miss the call. Because, deep down, both know that this is perhaps their last chance to be master of their destiny for the future. Failing this, they will be water carriers... Water which, precisely, caused the misfortune of the crew member Marc Márquez two weeks ago, at Misano : " this San Marino Grand Prix was disappointing to say the least, but it is now behind us” assures the Honda official.

« Now it's time for Aragon where we know we can be much stronger. On condition, however, that you work well during free practice. As always, it will be necessary to find the settings that will allow the tires to work well. I'm happy to go there, in front of my fan club and my audience. I hope that the weather will be good this time which would allow me to return to the battle for the podium ».
