I was mistaken, Aprilia have now acquired 4 total points, once they get to 6 they will lose their concessions. Regardless, the bike looks to be the most sorted package on the grid right now, and I hate to say it but the Aesthetics of it are growing on me.

Keith Huewen: 'Aprilia are now in the MotoGP driving seat'
This week's Crash.net MotoGP podcast featuring Keith Huewen dives into an historic victory for Aleix Espargaro and Aprilia in Sunday's Argentine Grand Prix.
Just shows how many of the riders can run away with a MotoGP race with the right equipment. Imagine how Fabio feels when Yamaha sends him out to defend his crown on a dog that's slow on Saturday and Sunday.

Per David Emmett on Motomatters.
"There have been nine different riders on the podium in the first three races, with nobody managing to get on the podium twice. There have been three different leaders in the teams championship, and two different leaders in the riders championship, with Aleix Espargaro taking over from Enea Bastianini, and Ducati and KTM have swapped the lead in the manufacturers championship. The winners of the first three races were three different riders on three different bikes. How are we expect to make sense of that"?

I think that’s great for the sport. As a viewer I would lose interest if one brand or team or even if two, dominated the sport.
See the lap time difference between first and last place qualifiers? The Pole sitter ran the fastest lap ever. Look who’s lined up with the Suzys! Watching tv I saw a Superbike race. So Petrucci retired eh? He’s doing well with MotoAmerica on his Panigale winning his 1st race @ COTA.

How Superbike races were there ? I saw Jake Gagne had a mechanical so Danillo had an easier task ?
I only saw one race. Yeah I suppose it was easier. After they launched Dani almost got bucked off but before lap 5 he was the leader and stayed there with ease. Sholtz got rattled when Dani came along side and Sholtz made a couple more errors with Dani chasing. Finally, the Ducati power paid off and away he went.

Yeah haven't seen it yet, but Gagne apparently had issues on the grid and didnt start. Still first race out and he waxed em. Petrux deserves better than MotoAmerica!
Funny how things go. Pole sitter finished 8th and the last bike from the starting line finished 6th. MM was on a roll. He said that after the 3rd lap he went full tilt. He even admitted making some mistakes. 
Look at the speeds and distance covered. Imagine riding as fast as you can for nearly 70 miles (with corners) non stop
and averaging nearly 160 mph.

Good article by Mat Oxley on Suzukis newfound top speed and acceleration!

MotoGP tech: how has Suzuki found all that extra top speed?
Suzuki’s 2022 GSX-RR is much quicker than its 2021 bike, so what’s the secret: more horsepower or less drag?
www.motorsportmagazine.com
A few surprises here.
Helluva race eh? Wutta track! Ups and downs, short straights, a real roller coaster. As everyone said, Fabio was on another plant finishing almost six seconds ahead of second place, leading almost the entire race. Three brands on the podium and six brands for the top six places! That’s (every) brand entered finishing in the top six. The Suzys were looking good throughout the race but poor Rins, taken out by Miller’s low side. So disappointing for each rider.

At least Rins is 2nd in the standings
Mir getting wiped out by Miller was crap ,not sure if Mir would've hung onto a podium today..
Fabio with a clear flowing track and its see ya later alright.
