Czech Gp - Brno (spoilers Etc)

Discussion in 'Racing & Bike Sport' started by Red899, Aug 19, 2016.

  1. JLo has revealed his front soft wet tyre had chunks missing which is why he came in.

    "Seven laps before the end the front tyre tore up, but when I stopped the [damaged part of the tyre] was on the tarmac," Lorenzo said. "So the front tyre looked perfect. It was only when they moved the bike that they understood a piece of the tyre was missing. That's probably why Ramon [Forcada, crew chief] didn't understand why I wanted to change the bike."

  5. Really chuffed to see a Brit win. Need to watch Moto2 and 3 still. I like Cal, cringe worthy at times but it's more interesting than the 'media trained' thing that most of the riders learn to do for their popularity and sponsors.
     
  6. On the topic of spoilers, BT sport couldnt have done any better than this. Came up a few times on the replay that started at 1830. Cal was in 13th or something when I first saw it. Genius. I cant even turn it off on ipad.

  8. Is anyone getting the stream from MotoGP.com? We bought a subscription this year after the poor quality of BT Sport, particularly the after race catch up vids that were corrupted every few races. Normally MotoGp.com is really good quality but we had quite a few glitches in the live feed yesterday especially right at the end which was driving me mad. Might just be my internet but we've not had issues in the past and have ten times the bandwidth we had a few months back.
     
  9. Jlo was good in the wet before so something has changed (tyres).

    Ianone was immense given where he still finished.
     
  10. Me and cranker disco also camper-vanning this year. Should be cosy
     
  11. We may be there to steal your BBQ burgers :) Not camping as Italians ( @MissPineapple ) dont do camping but a mate lives down the road.
     
  12. We have tents and a van with a wheelie bin full of ice and beer. I feel like we're the real winners, not the racers.

  17. just re-watched the race (as I may have been a lil pissed yesterday).
    tbh, yesterday I thought Cal's comments immediately after seemed a bit wank but as much as he grates on me, revisiting it,I don't think he was too bad... Or did he spout some shit later? He did call the rest of the field wimps ( perhaps he feels that if they don't crash as much as him they're all soft) but other than that he weren't bad... He's one that is easy to hate ( a brit Casey?) but the boy done good.

  19. Good call. Except less than half the talent ;)
     
  20. I switched from Motogp.com to BT for this year. Had no end of problems with the motogp website stream, login problems, resolution problems and they couldn't do anything for me. It was hard to understand why there was resolution issue with the live race as our we've got fibre. in the end i just had to catch up on races and watch the recorded versions as i didn't have issues with them, just the live races.
