  1. Not sure of fault is the right word. Possible cause due to his rolling off

  2. What, you’re on the apex? I’m coming thru anyway.
    May be exciting to watch, but it’s too aggressive imho. He simply barged him out the way, like in the PlayStation

  3. I was thinking the same..none of the ‘too dangerous’ stuff he’s thrown at Petrucci and others

  4. true but given his pace in the few sessions he was involved in i dont think it would have taken him long to recover.
    pure speculation of coarse and we will never know!! but a huge shame to see him out of the action..

  5. Fe
    I too fell asleep ha
     
  6. Strange start to the race with an aprilia in front plus others who normally are not, shows you how seriously the top guys take tyre wear at the island. Crutchlow can do an interview without fucking it up now? really good ride from him.
     
  7. Who do you think ;)
    Marquez
    Crutchlow
    Miller

  8. I’ve noticed that all they talk about with Ducati’s are how fast they are, in all racing. And how difficult the Honda is to ride. In all classes.

    yet in mgp that Honda is as fast, or now faster, than anything! Marquez was making 10 bike lengths on the straight. And they don’t talk about that...

  9. I think they now acknowledge that Ducati have lost their speed advantage to Honda. Both Honda and Ducati now pull lengths on Yamaha with ease whereas last season the speed of that Ducati was previously unseen.
     
  10. Haha perfect didnt expect crashlow to be up there tho
     
  11. Vinales crashed last lap but crutch would still have been podium

  12. Only with marquez on it, he's got the refexes of a cat, the journo michael scott said, not to offend esparago, that if you put marquez on that bike it would be a lot quicker. Nobody right now is anywhere near him.

  13. Would love to have seen Maverick’s heart rate when he crashed, cannot believe how low his heart rate is whilst riding.
     
  14. Post race interview gold.

    Reporter: Marc, what do you think of Zarco's performance on the Honda?

    Marc: Diplomatically talks about issues with wind and setup etc.

    Miller: He did better than Jorge

    Marc's face is a picture that screams 'glad I didn't have to say it, but yes i agree'.

  15. I really don’t think there is any comeback for Jorge now. I reckon there will be an announcement very soon that they will have parted company. Shame to see where he is now.

  16. Yes, not looking good for Horhey. Hope that all the other riders come back sharp for next season though, with the bikes a lot closer on performance. The Honda and Ducati seem to have significant top end advantage all season.
    Tyre degradation seems to be a big issue for some riders too.
     
  17. Wouldn’t mind being a fiver behind him ;)

  18. Not sure the Ducati has it now seems to have put so any bloody wings on it got more down force than a F1 ca, used to pi55 pass the Honda as well - Honda got faster Ducati seemed to slow down
