I know I know.
It's very early to start this thread now but might as well incase anyone has anything to add pre season.
What are we looking at in 2021?
M Marquez.
Will he return, and if he does will he be 100%?
And if he's back for Race 1 what effect will his first very serious injury have on his confidence and his ability to dominate?
Mir.
How will the World Champion follow up his amazing success in 2021 with so much expectation now on his back?
Quartararo.
How much of the disappointment of 2020 will affect him and will he be back to his best that we all know he is capable of.
A new Yamaha factory rider.
Should be very interesting to watch.
Vinales.
Can he showcase his obvious talent with much more consistency in the new season?
Perhaps a bit of work to be done between the ears here.
Miller.
Without doubt the Ducati rider of 2020 and their number 1 rider.
What can he do with the latest and greatest factory equipment under him?
Morbidelli.
A brilliant performance in 2020 and probably one of the favourites in 2021.
Crazy he doesn't have a factory ride.
He could ride the Yamaha very fast. Why couldn't the others?
P Espargaro
Moving to a factory Honda ride which everyone dreams about.
Can he take advantage and help change Honda's fortunes from the previous season?
One to watch for sure.
Zarco
Can he break though after some promising signs in 2020?
New Ducati factory rider as well.
Olivera
Last winner so should come back to the MotoGP opener with confidence.
Plus a new KTM factory rider.
Rossi
Will he have more luck with satellite over factory machinery?
Probably his last season so will be keen to finish with a strong legacy.
Certainly deserves his 200th MotoGP podium.
Bagnaia
Another new factory rider but is coming off a very poor season (Bet Ductati wish they still had Dovi over this option).
A Marquez
Off to a Honda satellite team after an impressive debut. Can he follow it up with further improvement and make some further strong challenges?
Rins
With a great bike under him and a bit more luck, who knows what his potential is?
Plus we'll be watching the new rookies such as Marin, Lecuona and Marini moving to the premier class and how they handle the step up, expectation and pressure.
Will KTM continue to improve on such solid performances?
Can Suzuki continue their brilliance?
Will Yamaha cure their technical woes?
Can Honda return to the top again?
What can Ducati do to get back to the pointy end again?
So many questions?
So many possible scenario's.
So much expectation.
Till next year gentlemen.
I will be keenly waiting and looking forward to it...
