As David Emmett pointed out, Marquez is still talented and still wants to win. He now just needs to find a common ground with the Honda package if he plans to challenge for a win at Assen.

A short time ago, a factory Honda sounded like the best possible option. But Scott Redding is finding that his dream is a nightmare.

Same bike (pretty much, anyway) as Redding, but Cal Crutchlow is making it go faster.

Always a threat for a good qualifying position, Aleix Espargaro must find a way to get the Suzuki GSXRR to go fast for 26 laps.

Andrea Dozivioso is looking for another Premier Class win. His last one was in the rain at Donington in 2009 (thanks to Neil Morrison for the fact check!). With no significant straight away on which to use the Ducati’s power, Assen may not be his bast chance. But you never know…
