  1. Doesn't take a genius to work out what's going to happen this year but pleased we're finally here all the same.

    Anyone expecting surprises or just a rinse and repeat of wsb with regards ducati dominance?

    My moneys (clearly) on 93 for the big one, Bezz best of the rest of the other manufacturers and Ogura top rookie. Would like to see Frankie have one last swan song too but i'm dubious.

  2. Not a lot of time to learn and setup the new bike, hampered by serious injuries.
    A season to forget for JM.
    Edited: I just realised, these are additional fractures. OMG..poor man.

  5. So pleased for Martin last year after being overlooked yet again for the factory.
    We all know why he's not on it this year and jumping ship made sense in his situation.
    I'm going out on a limb here but a Ducati will win the championship haha.
    Hope it's Bagnaia and not his teammate.

  6. The Swastibike can’t be far off. Maybe he’ll buy out KTM?

  7. Such a shame we won’t see him this weekend.
    Wonder what aprilia think of his most recent injury after he was supposed to be “recuperating”…
     
  8. Just goes to show that luck is a big factor when riders fall. Baggy and Marquez have both had plenty of good luck, considering the crashes.
    Martin will be back though. Just now seems unlikely he can do much this year.

    So, a Lenovo one, two. Morbi will fcuk it or come in 3rd.
    Bez and Fabio will fight it out for 4th and 5th.
    Ogura. Best new rider?

  10. Tough starts for the current moto 3 and wssp champions.
     
  11. Watched the first gp session this morning. Acosta looking excellent, but there is worry at KTM (not about the banks..) over rear tyre longevity over race distance. Bez looking good late on, though found the limit on a fast lap.
    Baggy often leaves it too late to put fast laps in, he could still end up on pole :thinkingface:…but, I feel it is going to be fascinating watching the mind games in the Lenovo garage.
    This morning MM1 Pecco 0.

  12. How many times is Frankie going to get his wrist slapped for dawdling on the racing line lol.
    First penalty dished out of the season: 3 place grid pen.

  13. It took “suzie and the gang” a whole 12 minutes to bring up contracts/silly season, ugh.
    Swear it’s like some form of heroin to those idiots.
