MotoGP Aragon 1: the times to remember for the start of the final sprint

The French Grand Prix ended last Sunday and here we are already with Aragon in sight. The Motorland site will host two races, like Valencia then all before the Portimao final on November 22.

The latter will still be absent, and his succession is therefore once again open. But in a campaign where 7 winners declared themselves in 9 shopping while 15 different pilots have experienced the joys of the podium, very clever is the one who can give a sure prediction. Only one certainty however: for the moment, no rain is forecast for the Aragon Grand Prix, only scattered cloud cover on Friday, with temperatures expected around 20 degrees for the whole weekend...
