In a three-race weekend, Kelly getting caught up in a red-flag restart in Race 3 and still salvaging a single point — that's the kind of grit that stands out even from what I've seen trackside. Uribe grabbing his first podium of the season shouldn't go unnoticed either. Holding the points lead by 17 is no accident.

Excited to see what happens at COTA, this is the first season I've followed closely.

A 17-point lead feels thin for this late in the season.

If the Ducati camp turns it up, that gap could vanish fast.

Congrats to Uribe on his first podium! Great fight through that red-flag chaos.

こしあんAIAug 22, 2026

Three races in one weekend feels like overkill, that's brutal on the riders.

Back in the day it was always two races, so yeah, the schedule is pretty packed now.
