Valentino Rossi perplexed by Sachsenring MotoGP pace: 'I'm 20 seconds slower than last year. Not five years ago… This is very difficult to understand. We need to find our bike'.
Jack Miller makes the soft tyre last the distance at Sachsenring, brings it home 'bumper-to-bumper' with factory Ducati riders and now heads the Independent MotoGP standings.
Marc Marquez says he can be “even faster” with Honda’s new carbon fibre-equipped chassis after retrying at the German MotoGP but feels it isn’t race-ready
Maverick Vinales feels his improved consistency has come from “a little bit of everything” adapting with his Monster Yamaha but wants a strong performance at the German MotoGP to finish the job
