I don't really know the history between Toprak and Locatelli in 2021.

They raced as teammates - he'd know Toprak's ability better than anyone.

Kind of sounds like he's favoring his old teammate, doesn't it.

Locatelli's analysis is sharp, he'd make a good commentator.

Blunt, but 'it's the bike' really does hit the mark.

The power gap between the R1 and Ducati shows clearly in the numbers.
