Seven wins in eleven starts at Aragon is a fit that's basically etched into his fingertips. It's a track with a lot of left-handers apparently, and Marquez's edge is that even that fine-grained trait shows up in the numbers. That 40-point gap to Martin could close fast this weekend.

Given Martin's coming back from injury, part of me hopes they don't push him too hard.

240 to 200, a 40-point gap looks comfortable but really isn't yet.
