Performance Deficiencies and Critical Analysis
MotoGP World Champion 2020 Joan Mir explained the reasons for the performance deficiencies while reviewing his results from the Aragon race.

Mir emphasized that riders must understand their problems and find solutions.
Mir stated that they need to find solutions quickly to understand their problems. Speaking about the difficulties they experienced, especially during braking and corner entry, Mir described the situation as a disaster. Mir noted that these difficulties were not generally strong points in grip ability, but that while corner entry is usually not poor, this week was a nightmare.
"If we want to enjoy the latter part of the season, we need to understand where our problems lie in the shortest possible time. At that time, we must find a solution. This is my conclusion about Aragon," stressed the 2020 MotoGP World Champion.
Current Status and Future Plans

"If I am not in a position to make a difference and cannot use it as I want, it is important to finish the races at least," he added.
