What do you expect from Maverick Vinales as he returns from injury at Motegi?

I'm just shocked he's actually racing for Tech3 again

I don't know how bad it was on ground in the garage but technically he still has the job as of today. Maybe just for him to see personally, where he stands. He's not going to have access to a Motogp bike again soon so might as well ride up. 😅

It’s now or never for Maverick. It’s almost certainly his last hoorah in MotoGP, so he has to make it count. I’m interested to see how his relationship with KTM unfolds for the rest of the season, because let’s face it, it’s been messy

Happy for Top Gun. Hope he smokes some riders and comes back to form before the end of the season to end it in a spanking note with maybe a Lap record somewhere! 😅 He's surely capable. Unfortunately things went sideways for him. Sad to see that happen to seasoned Motogp riders what with everyone wanting a rookies cup these days instead of Titans clashing 😓

I can see why they wanted a change still, you don't know how long it'll be before he's back to 100% form

this is a HUGE test for Maverick Vinales - If Mav is still unable to at least compete with Brad Binder and Enea Bastianini for the status of second-best KTM rider behind Pedro Acosta, then this will surely mark a sorry farewell from MotoGP for the Spaniard.
