MotoGP Argentina 2022 | Rider Ratings
Gold & Goose / Red Bull Content Pool
I really like the shape the 2022 MotoGP season is taking. You?ve got Suzuki leading the Teams Championship, Ducati leading the Manufacturers Championship and now, after the latest round in Argentina, an Aprilia rider leading the Riders Championship. That rider is Aleix Espargaro. He was one of three Spaniards to stand on the MotoGP podium, yesterday in Argentina, and the ninth different rider in only three rounds to do so. That?s why there are so many riders within spitting distance of the championship lead. In fact the top five riders are all within ten points of the lead? and they all ride different bikes too (A. Espargaro, Aprilia; B. Binder, KTM; Rins, Suzuki; Bastianini, Ducati; Quartararo, Yamaha). So after another epic MotoGP race, this is how we rated their performances out of ten. Well how I (Boothy) rated them, anyway?
1st Aleix Espargaro 10/10

Like him or not, it?s hard to fault Espargaro-the-elder?s performance in the MotoGP race in Argentina. He knew what he needed to do to win, and he did it. That?s despite never actually having won a MotoGP race before. Rather than rushing to the front, he bided his time to work out where he could pass Martin for the win; and it might have taken three attempts to pull it off, but he did pull it off. Now...
