Reigning MotoGP world champion Jorge Martin is viewing this weekend’s Japanese Grand Prix as the end of his ‘pre-season’ after an “extremely positive” Misano test. His return from the Czech Grand Prix onwards in July has very much been about adapting to an RS-GP that has developed greatly since the start of the year. The post-race Misano test last Monday offered Jorge Martin with a chance to focus on improving his feeling on the bike, with ergonomic changes providing him the biggest gains. As such, he heads to this weekend’s Japanese Grand Prix looking to “focus on speed and performance” and move on from his “path of adaptation”. The Italian came close to a second Sunday win of the season at Misano after a tense fight with Marc Marquez.
