For Joan Mir to bring the premier-class crown back to Suzuki after a 20-year wait, without winning a single race in the process, would be the perfect encapsulation of a bizarre season.
For the Hamamatsu factory, there could hardly be a better year to celebrate success in the MotoGP World Championship than 2020 - its centenary year and the 60th anniversary of its first entry into the series.
