Well, the late nights and early mornings are over for another year. And the late nights and early mornings have been even worse than ever in the closing part of the MotoGp season as the races ran well into Autumn when track and ambient temperatures are much lower than what the teams are used to running. I didn’t stay up and watch the top two races last night; I packed it in after the usual manic activity that passes for the Moto3 race.
Anyway, the season is over, how did the results stack up? Well, I’m no statistician but here are the important ones.

It was an amazing season and attention now shifts to the off-season shenanigans. There are wholesale riders changes for 2021 and I’ll publish a complete list once all the signings have been confirmed. It certainly was a great season, but one of the more outstanding things of note is Quaatararo slumping to EIGHTH in the overall standings, who would have thought THAT at the start of the season?
Anyway, time to get some early nights and start laughing about how the (Italian) journalists are going to fill their column inches till February, that is always a hoot.
