MotoGP 2019: 5 Talking Points after Aragon GP

#2 Marquez, Quartararo and Vinales are the new "Aliens" of the grid

Maverick, Marquez and Quartararo are consistent fixtures at the top this year

In the last few Grand Prix Marc Marquez, Fabio Quartararo and Maverick Vinales have in a way separated themselves from the pack. They are the complete package. Be it free practice, qualifying or the race. These three are always up there. In no session would you see either of them not at the top of the standings.

While there are other contenders as well. Dovizioso still struggles to put it together in qualifying and hence always has to make up ground in the race while Alex Rins is still rough around the edges.

These three are currently the " Aliens" of the grid. A moniker that was once upon a time bestowed upon riders like Valentino Rossi, Jorge Lorenzo and Casey Stoner.

If Yamaha can keep up the development work on their bike then 2020 could turn out to be an interesting year for MotoGP with these three fighting tooth and nail for victories week in week out.
