A team pulling results like this two years into a series — from what I've seen trackside, that's the real thing. It shows Fernandez and Ogura are clicking as a pair. Whether management that made NASCAR work can build the same energy in MotoGP, I'm genuinely curious to watch.

Whether NASCAR success translates to MotoGP is still an open question.

With that kind of budget, isn't HRC still stronger?
