Moto Gp This Weekend

Expensive weekend for the teams!!!

 

I am looking forward to it.

For some reason i really intrigued by the progress that Ducati are makind. Dovi is riding very well this season and i cant help but think that this time its going to be different. Progress is being made and they really are getting the ball rolling.

I really hope the bike they bring out at the Aragon race is what they say it is.

 

Ha! Marquez fails to make front row.
Well, that's a change. The race might even be interesting.

 

Didn't see qualifying, bit its dry and sunny there now

 

All Qualifying was run in the dry.

 

although it doesn't say SPOILER in the title, it's a bit special so far - too late now but could have made a mint at the Bookies..

 

So far the goat says "smell my cheese".

 

BT Sport's coverage of Misano was pretty good. Did laugh out loud at "Uccio had his hand on Rossi's helmet"

 

A privilege to watch this race on telly, racing as it should be,no stroppy faces,joy to be seen amongst 100,000 crazy spectators, joy on the podium,probably joy all over the world for a brief period. Well done Sir!!,and 2 fingers to the Grand Prix lot.

 

That made me laugh and also they said his Girlfriend has her lips on it!

 

dont you just love a rossi love in....

 

And don't forget: the first Ducati was within 6 secs of the winner. Now that is progress.
Crutchlow may not be able to get it to work, but other people clearly can. It kept up with a Repsol Honda for a whole race - that is an amazing effort.
Ducati is also ahead of Tech 3 Yam in the constructors championship - not at all the case last season.

 

I certainly do and it was totally deserved today. A stunning effort from Vale, MM made a rare unforced error.

 

Actually it was forced. He was struggling to keep up with Vale.

 

Yup, it was quite encouraging to see at that point that Vale was pulling away.

 

No-one could have caught him today. Plus he stuck it right back at Marc. Was a terrific first few laps followed by a load of nerve biting laps for us Valeista. If thats a word. Danny needs to take a rude pill for the first few laps of a race. He's too polite. Jorge chose the wrong tyre and the Ducati's were miles off the pace. You could see that Marc was abusing his brakes and firing deep into the corner to keep up. Any other track and he'd have cleared off but Misano gave everyone else a chance. Anyone who begrudges Vale that win is a grouchy old man. A Biaggi fan. Ooo..The Fall on BBC6...

 

mind you i bet the italian marshals really helped to get marquez going again........

 

And his mums....
