Motogp - Portimao #spoilers

Tempted to go next year looks amazing on TV and that last corner with a crest on start/ finish line must bring a smile to your face.

 

Yeah especially when you do an unintentional 150mph wheelie!

 

Has it been resurfaced recently? I seem to remember it was a bit bumpy here and there. Years ago mind....

 

Didn't they do it just before F1? So probably still a bit bumpy!

 

What’s the lap time round there to break in to the fast group??

 

low 1'50's I believe os a very good time IIRC, sub 2 min probably fast??

Although F1 do the longer loop and manage a 1'18....

 

Yeah, 1’50 is elite level. I seem to remember around the 2’00 mark for us hungover mere mortals.

 

1’38 today from MGP chaps

 

2'00 would get you in fast group. I was doing just over the 2 minutes last time and I was the quickest in the middle group but would have been the slowest in the fast group.

 

Look who is quickest today, Zarco just saying.

 

Results suggest he won’t be there at the end

Rossi today, just shocking i would love to be a fly on the wall in his paddock saying that it would have to be a fly that speaks Italian my Italian is pidgeon!!

 

I've not seen any racing today but yeah he gets worst race by race.

 

I mean surely he must be thinking i'm getting too old for this shit!!

 

Everything in life is a young man's game these days,he stayed too long in the sport with a crap Yamaha that's not help his cause.

 

Maybe he needs a bit more practice.

 

Or handover the keys to you sir,trackstar GOD.

 

I would love to see him get his 200th podium and then just call it a day but fair play if he has a good 2021 with the new team he could do it, let's face it how many times has he been written off then makes everyone it a bit of humble pie, who knows??

 

This year was his last chance in the Last Chance Saloon and it is a sad decline from now on in. I wish he had jacked it in and moved to WSBK or simply a Team Manager but he does love motorbikes and racing. Sometimes it’s just hard to let go
