#3 It goes from bad to worse for Yamaha
Fabio Quartararo somehow managed to pull off a blinder and put his Petronas Yamaha on the front row for the race. But on a track where the Yamaha is close to 15kmph slower on the straights, there wasn't much he could have done after he had a messy start. Things are just not looking up for Yamaha at the moment and it was capped off by a disappointing afternoon for Valentino Rossi as he qualified 18th and was never a factor in the race.
Vinales scored the best result for the Japanese manufacturer at 6th but you've got to wonder what's next for them as the team is stuck yet again in no man's land. They are currently the slowest in a straight line by such a huge margin. Everyone from Ducati to KTM has overtaken them. Both Vinales and Valentino Rossi are championship caliber riders and both the riders have been extracting the most out of their bikes. It's a travesty to see the two championship-level riders trundling around in substandard machinery with Marquez waiting for a worthy challenger at the top.
