Marquez: "I took a gamble by fitting the soft rear. During the weekend with the hard I didn't feel good. Today I thought I'd take a risk and I rode really smooth. We made a great fight, I was on the limit. But it's great, thanks to everyone."

13:56
Dovizioso: "I'm really happy. We've always struggled a lot here at Aragon. We were fighting for the victory but Marc is really strong here. But the surprise is we were fighting with Marc. This is good for this championship."
13:54
Iannone: "We started with the soft on the rear and I think it was the right decision. I tried not to destroy it early on and then attacked later on. It's a great result. Thanks to Suzuki and all the team."
