Leading MotoGP riders have confessed they completely missed a major trick by ignoring the hard tyre compound throughout the Japanese GP weekend at Motegi, only discovering its true potential when forced into action.
Marc Marquez went as far as suggesting that the reinforced rubber would have actually been competitive enough to use during qualifying time-attack sessions, defying pre-race expectations.
Michelin's late withdrawal of the soft compound following Sprint race issues forced teams like Ducati to sample the hard option for the very first time during Sunday morning's extended warm-up session.
The unexpected performance delivered incredible stability and grip, leaving championship contender Jorge Martin expressing sincere regret that the grid did not test the compound earlier in the weekend.
