Fernandez, the renewal arrives
Only three months ago, the future in MotoGP of Raul Fernandez seemed to be seriously at risk, with the Spanish rider himself expressing his disappointment about the situation he was experiencing.
The 25-year-old from Madrid has however gained positions through performances, so much so that he arrived at the summer break in sixth place in the world championship with 159 points.
