Heading into the summer break 31 points clear is huge, even from where I sit. Coming back from being wrecked by injuries last year and getting to this point — from what I've seen trackside, that comeback isn't about grit alone, it's the product of real work put in. I want to see him finish this chapter strong before the Yamaha move.

1,000km of cycling isn't much of a vacation is it

Martin's comeback story genuinely gets me

Given last year's injuries, this is basically a miracle

31 points is nice but the back half is where it counts

Point gaps like this always tighten up in the second half
