I'm curious to see if Marquez' aggressive style bites him in the ass soon. Lorenzo started the same way in GP a few years ago - coming on SUPER strong and aggressive until high-sided himself half way to to the moon. After that he slowly built his speed back up in a more methodical/controlled manner.

This is the first year I've had some empathy for Dani, too. I've never been much of a fan, but he was riding with incredible confidence at the close of the 2012 season. Then he was upstaged in ATX and Marquez garnered all the media attention from that race, and now he won Jerez and all anybody wants to talk about is the Marquez/Lorenzo pass.
Dani deserved the title last year. I can't help but root for the guy.

I loved the pass and watching Marquez try to avoid ass-packing Lorenzo at each corner.

If this trend keeps up, I'm going to have to buy a Repsol!
