'It's crazy that the top nine guys have a real chance to win the championship... But Marc is still the benchmark. So we will see the situation when he comes back' - Herve Poncharal on 2020 MotoGP season so far.
As one of those allowed at the 'Closed Door' races held under the special Covid protocol, what has it been like on the inside?So, we have to remember a few things. When we spoke before the season, we were not sure we would have a single race in 2020. So to have had five races already, plus all the ones to come is already exceptional and, as we've just been discussing, the races themselves have been incredibly exciting.
It's working really well now to be honest and we've got used to wearing a mask every day, being scanned and having temperature checks, eating with distance between us etc. Of course, in MotoGP we also miss the crowd, the flags, the horns, the cheering. But when we follow the races at the track, looking at the TV pictures like everyone at home, because we are 100% involved in what has been an intense and very open season, you forget about everything else.
We've tried to take the best decisions to make things as good as possible. You as the media have to have your say on that, but I think you have access to the teams and the riders, you are still part of the show and can still write for your website or your paper. Maybe not as you would do on site, but you can still do your job.Written media are certainly in a more fortunate position than photographers, who cannot do their work remotely.
