Imagine if Binder had taken Martin but then got demoted into second between Martin and Pecco… Instead, his demotion helped Pecco a bit. The championship is that close!
Phenomenal race today. I’m heading out to Malaysia for the next race ,and can’t wait if today was a taster. Hopefully will see Acosta crowned Moto 2 champion as well. Roll on a week on Friday !
Tremendous hope it stays dry for you. I need to get my arse in gear next year and start arranging some "aways", its been too long.
Forecast not looking great ,but it’s that time of year over there with Thunderstorms at any time. It won’t spoil the fun either way
Good race with lots of strategy at play with tyre management, was interesting waiting to see who would make a break for it first. You could see Martin was being restrained in the beginning, his leg wasn't flying out as fast as it usually does. I thought Bagnaia was going to be more aggressive at the end, his moves on the Marquez brothers looked like he was up for a fight.
Talk of Martin replacing the beast at the factory ducati team, pretty ruthless if it happens. Stunning revelation that Ducati may put Jorge Martin in 2024 factory team | MotoGP | News (crash.net)
Did wonder why they gave Bastianini another contract because he hasn't shown any where near the level of performance he displayed in Tech 3. Martin has a current factory spec bike so not sure why he'd swap. Much more kudos in beating the factory team in a satellite team Andy
