4th for Jack in Jerez. Got caught up battling with Isaac Vinales and didn't have the opportunity to catch the front 3 on the last lap. Lead cut to just 5 from Fenati now. Hopefully gets the victory in Le Mans next round. Starting to tighten up! should be a good battle with Fenati from now on.
 
Looking at the way in which Marquez is dominating, two questions need to be asked
  1. How many races will he win this season?
  2. How many records won't he hold when he retires?
At 21 he has the world at his feet and looking to dominate for years to come. Consdier that Rossi is 35 and has 106 GP wins across all classes, Marquez already has 36. It might end up being just a question in a few years of does he still want to do it that might stop him I believe.

Won't forget Marquez' last Moto2 race in Valencia 2012 in the wet when he got a penalty the previous round and had to start from the back of the grid and came through the field and won the race. Was ridiculous. Could be the greatest of all time if he keeps going! I wonder if the next crop like Vinales, Pol, Miller, Rins, Fenati etc will ever be good enough to challenge him in the future.

Jack Millers won again and stretched his moto3 lead to 30points as his main rival had a mechanical issue and failed to finish.
One of the best races I've ever seen and definitely the best in recent memory in any class.
 
Jack Miller time........

Just on Marquez, the pessimist in me says Stoner knew this was coming and got out. As good as he was, even he couldn't compete and he did tend to get the sads on when things didnt go to plan.

Well at least Marquez passed a few bikes to win this time.....
 
KTM brakes are they now? I thought they were my brakes!

Good onya Jack. Vasquez didn't like receiving his own treatment!

I find it impossible to believe Casey turned down Hondas biggest ever contract because of Marquez. I think Stoner would have race wins this year too. As it is it's hard to see Marc get beaten at all this year.
 
Also, George needs to pull his finger out. I know this years Yamaha doesn't really suit him but he needs to be good enough to adapt to it's strengths (pick it up early and gass it!). He might be taking a pay cut at the end of the year at this rate!
 
That was one insane Moto3 race. What a ride by Jack! Under extreme pressure from Isaac Vinales for most of the race to then win from the gap he had to pull back was awesome. Vazquez was dishing it out all race then cops it back and spits the dummy. Loved Jacks celebration! Also good to see Marquez thought he'd entertain us by dropping back then picking off the field one by one :p
