I'm tempted to say the Ducati is the best. The rest become a bit more muddled for me.
Honda just pissed it.....but it's Marc Marquez and none of the other Hondas have done shit this year, worse than last year in fact.
Yamaha...people say it's great but like Honda do they just have one great rider? Rossi is dire, Dovi is old news, FM is not the old FM so maybe the bike still is great?
Suzuki...the bike equivalent of meh? The ride height thing was lauded but it's not bring any front running pace.
Aprilia....Still not sure. Has AE got better or is the bike now not bad? Vinales is too hot and cold to say I think.
KTM....UP, DOWN, UP, DOWN and so on. Doesn't seem to be any consistency with riders or bike.

I'd go along with that. But strangely, no dominance like podium lock outs or anything.

I think the Yamaha is better than it's being made to look.
Viñales jumped ship because his head went, Morbidelli is injured and is effectively in 2022 pre-season. Rossi is, well, too old and Dovi doesn't count.
So, for me, Ducati and Yamaha are top dogs, Honda is there abouts but missed the all important Marc preseason fine tuning, Suzuki is oh so close to being as good as the Yamaha if not a bit better and then KTM and Aprilia are struggling to be competitive at all tracks with KTM edgin ahead by having more quality people riding it.

Thats about it. In addition Morbidelli's bike is the 2019 and left behind a bit. Ducati have more riders capable of a win if their top rider doesnt perform (like FQ on Yamaha or MM on Honda). Ducati & Yamaha are very close, constructors and team.

Suzuki should be at the front more often but lousy q's by Mir and Rins in the gravel. Bike is good enough.
