He was on a different level.

Dorna will restrict the Ducs revs after race 3.

Bautista was for sure but what about Davies? Same bike, same team but struggling for some reason.  How might they restrict the Ducati's? There is no displacement difference any longer.
No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

Davies had limited testing time due to injuries. I'm hoping that's all it is, and he'll adapt to the new bike. Plus, even though the Panigale is different from the Desmosedici, the bike have more in common than the V twin Panigale Davies was on last year so Bautista has that advantage. Plus Bautista rode in GP 3 months ago at PI.

The Eurosport guys were talking about restricting revs. The Duc has something like 1600 more, due to the Desmo system. You know Dorna won't let them dominate like that for long.

BTW...Baustista also crushed the field in the second race by 18 seconds, as well as winning the morning Superpole sprint. Total domination.Congrats to him. I think the rest of the field is worried.

Although, watching how wild Bautista's bike was, it might just be that he's actually a better rider - willing to let it run free. Very cool to watch.
