Mat Oxley: Congratulations to Pecco Bagnaia and Ducati, who seem to have forgotten that today is the exact 50th anniversary of the Ducati factory's first entry into the MotoGP world championship, on 12th September 1971 at Monza. Phil Read & their 500 v-twin finished 4th.
Ciabatti: "Bagnaia took off a weight, beating Marquez, the king of Aragon": "Pecco was good at repelling the attack and in the end Marc made a mistake by going to the green. At that point we enjoyed the last straight.
A.Espargarò: "Happy and angry together, but I'm aiming to finish 6th in the world championship": "Now the level of Aprilia is this and we have to work to always fight in the top five. My goal is to finish the world championship one day in the top five.
Peter McLaren: Marc Marquez confirms he's on his 3rd different Honda chassis evolution in 4 races, says he's careful to separate feeling from lap time because sometimes a chassis that feels good isn't fast enough.
Vinales: "I'm no longer in my comfort zone, Aprilia is a great challenge": "I'm happy for everything I learned today in the race, it's clear to me where I have to and can improve. The RS-GP has great potential.

Jack Miller explains Aragon For me, I would have liked to have joined him up there but I had some issues with my leg that were a bit weird with the lever as I was trying to shift gear. I kept making mistakes on the gearbox and while I could hang in there with Pecco and Marc early on, it just kept happening and I eventually ran long into the last corner and Joan (Mir) and Aleix (Espargaro) came past me, I gifted them the places really. I went out of the track at the last corner and kept going wide at Turn 1, so it was a strange one. My tyres went well and I felt good on the bike, but it just wasn't to be today.
Rivola: “I came from the F1, and the MotoGP welcomed me with skepticism”: “I’m aiming for our first victory in 2023. The podium must make us more eager. The Moto Guzzi in the MotoGP? With a satellite team, why not?”
