His position will improve because 4 riders are out with injury and 3 others are injured but Yamaha will still be nowhere. Note FP3 is back on BT Sport 1, 2, 3 or 4 i.e. one of the BT sport channels on sky.
As some wit commented MM will be deciding who wins the championship but not this race. Neither of those IMO will be top 5, but happy to be proved wrong by either.
Pol has a replacement https://www.motogp.com/en/news/2023...-in-for-pol-espargaro-from-americas-gp/451253
Doesnt seem a terrible choice tbf. They were explaining Pols injuries just now too, broken his jaw up to his ear and currently unable to hear out of the ear and eating through a straw ffs!!! And thats before you start on the four broken vertebra
Folger's german isnt he so speaks the ktm lingo id imagine. Plus a quick check reveals... Won races in 125, moto 3 moto 2 and a podium in moto gp (which i have no recollection of).
A good day for the Aprilia's & Frankie out classes Fabio, but the Ducati's are still there. The Sprint race tomorrow is going to be interesting for sure.
I'm pretty sure he started getting good results with tech 3 yamaha back in the day, then got struck down with an illness that was quite serious
Looks the hot seat to be on that. https://www.motogp.com/en/videos/20...uez-ducati-catches-fire-after-q1-crash/451550
