It would be interesting to see if anyone dares to use the soft rear tyre, given how much graining riders reported in the sprint. We are still waiting for Michelin to reveal the final tyre choices, but at the moment, everyone has opted for the medium rear

One rider in focus this weekend is Marco Bezzecchi. The Italian was both physically and mentally down after four brutal race weekends across June and July. But despite struggling with pain and lack of mobility, he was able to qualify on the second row of the grid and claim a podium yesterday.
However, can he maintain his pace over a grand prix distance today?
