I hate Mark Marques! I think what he did to Rossi was such a low move he doesn't belong in professional racing. But what he did this year was maybe one of the best seasons ever for a champion. There is parity in the field like never before, the proof being the many winners. Further, MM won this one with his head, not by being a crazy wild man hoping he can stay on the bike long enough to win.
Going into the final there was no way Dovi was going to catch MM, yet the final race was as epic a race as it's we've seen this season. Pedrosa pulling in behind MM to shield him from the field as a team mate should. Lorenzo being a jerk and holding up Dovi, and Zarco as aggressive as ever. Brilliant stuff all and MM then adds to the adventure by losing the front and picking the bike up again as only MM can. It was as if he was saying "this is why I'm the best". All in all an amazing season.
What world superbike wouldn't give for this kind of action! So, as much as it pains me to say it, Well done MM. You were truly the best man this year - enjoy this well deserved trophy!
