MotoGP Pick the Podium Contest – Round 13 – Aragon
Dani Pedrosa is doing the business, but it’s a big ask to catch and then overtake Jorge Lorenzo, both on the track and in the World Championship standings. Dani is showing that the Honda has gotten it’s act together, but we have yet to see a real slap-fest toward the latter stages of a race, which is what fans really want to see.
