Race 2 has only one emotion. The countdown featuring Rea in his hunt for Locatelli, positive hero of the day. That Johnny has to win, it is known, but everyone watches the Italian rookie's race greedily., hoping for someone to turn the tables even though they know it will not happen
Negative hero, on the other hand, Garret Gerloff, who pays dearly in the media for a normal race mistake by mistakenly pulling down the very colleague at the moment most beloved as Rea's only antagonist, that Razgatlioglu who sees a summit that until Saturday was his receding.
Crucified the American, who instead makes a normal mistake, however heavy, and should instead be evaluated for what he does right, every time.
Useless the rest, because Redding does not close any gap and all the others do nothing much. He saves himself, at least this time, Alvaro Bautista, who finishes a race and finishes it well., while Davies becomes aware that the podiums and victories he promised himself at the beginning of the championship are in danger of being a mirage.
With Rea the default ruler and Locatelli the revelation, we have to be content.

Rea
Total and absolute dominator. He also seems to be taking his time.
Rated 10
Redding
He does second but doesn't close any gap. Today it is clear that he cannot win any championship. Not without external upsets.
Rated 9
Locatelli
He goes for broke and throws away a Superpole Race podium, but makes up for it with interest. What happens to him, he deserves it all.
Rated 10
Davies
He makes up for it in a big way-or almost. But the truth is that he cannot be happy. At the beginning of the season there was talk of wins and podiums. Where are they?
Rated 7.5
Bautista
He brings home a fifth place for which, we are sure, he would sign every time. In race 2 he stays calm and doesn't throw away. He grows in experience in the finale.
Rated 7.5
Van der Mark
Not very lucky home race. But it got even worse for him over theend. I'd drop the winning resolutions.
grade 6
Lowes
The distance between Rea and Lowes. This bisgna quantify.
Rated 6
Rinaldi
Struggle, struggle, then plunge into the sea of problems.
Rated 5
Bassani
Slightly better than tenth ... however, the freshman can't make that step. Let's be clear, that's good enough as it is.
Rated 6.5
Haslam
Lazy and sleepy, he goes about his business. By now the feeling is that he is punching the clock.
Rated 5
