Yesterday?s MotoGP race at Catalunya was a bizarre one. OK, the amount of crashers and the unexpected winner was par for the MotoGP course these days. But the mid-race striptease from the championship leader was most certainly not. The action from the 2021 MotoGP in Catalunya was as entertaining as we?ve come to expect and has certainly left me hungry for the next instalment. But until then (Germany, in a few weeks? time), here?s the top ten from Catalunya rated by us?

Miguel Oliveira 9.5/10

It?s hard to fault Oliveira?s performance in Barcelona. Yes, he?s a proven race winner, but I don?t think anyone had him down for the win yesterday. But he did it. And fairly convincingly too. Once he got to the front, he pretty much stayed there, barring a little tussle with Fabio. It was proof that his previous wins weren?t just a fluke. He demonstrated that the KTM?s have got power and that he?s got the speed. Now he just needs to work on his consistency.
Johann Zarco 9/10

Will Johann Zarco ever win a MotoGP race, or is he destined to be forever a bridesmaid. Without a shadow of a doubt, he?s the fastest person on the current MotoGP grid to never win a race. I can only imagine how frustrating P2 is for the Frenchman at the MotoGP in Catalunya. That said, he put in a solid performance yesterday and bagged twenty points for second. And he deserves extra kudos for beating both Factory Ducatis on his Pramac racing machine.

Jack Miller 8/10

Thrille...
