Motogp Rnd 3 - Austin Texas

Discussion in 'Racing & Bike Sport' started by John Mac821, Apr 11, 2023.

  1. Another great sprint race, Aleix Espargaro fought hard it's a pity one mistake cost him the podium, another impressive performance by Alex Rins and good to see both Binder & Jack in the points, albeit last position for Jack, but Pecco rode a perfect a race. The main race tomorrow will be exciting.

  2. If you have your TV connected to the internet then get the BT Sport app on there, log in and no need for the iPad
     
  3. Even with a full tank of gas and a longer race spec package, i can't see anyone beating that red bike, unless of course he makes a mistake again.
     
  4. Yeh pecco looks Bautista-esque right now when it comes to confidence and dominance.

    On a slightly unrelated note, chazley and the team going well on the number 6 ducati at the 24 hr Le Mans on Eurosport.

    interesting to hear him say how much better the bike runs at night (engine and electronics).
     
  5. Guintoli and team Suzuki’s race finished 400 yards from the start after a clash with Josh Hopk.

    Basically gave everyone a 17 lap head start :joy:
     
  6. Whatley and Dixon both crashing on the warm up lap is a bit embarrassing for us brits

  7. Disappointing but it could be a techical problem with software etc, so the jury's out on that one for the minute, as for Sam Lowes he's never gonna win the championship now, so a P45 and find new blood in my opinion that can be at the sharpe end week in & out.
     
  8. Put that man in the washing machine on a full cycle and cleanse his stupid mindset, second wins points for fu'k sake.!
     
  9. Good ride for rins, good to see someone able to ride the Honda super loose and keep it on the island!

  10. Perfect Pecco no more, Pecco's problems continue. What a race, real shame to see Jack crash out of podium contention but good to see Luca take his first Sunday podium and also good to see Fabio back up there too. It's certainly a very interesting & exciting season ahead of us. :grinning:

  12. Did you see his interview after the race, it was shown on BT Sport's Chequered Flag programme. Pecco explains that the problem is not him but is the bike. Definitely not him. :blush:
    I wanted someone to ask him if he had had a drink because we know what his drink driving is like, but they didn't.

  13. I thought the MotoGP race was shite. Dull as dishwater. All the Titans have gone… Marquez, Rossi, Stoner. Those were the days….

  15. We love Alex Rins in this house and have done ever since he did this in front of us



    More of the same next round please (x3)!!
     
  16. Fucking Dorna. It was of course his epic win over 93 at Silverstone in 2019.
     
  17. Whatleys what 16? No issue there really.
    Dixon is nearly 30 and acting the tit half the time.
    Perhaps he just needs to re-focus a bit after the arrival of the rug rat.
    Be amazed if it was a technical problem, looked like he was just caught out by cold tyres.
     
  18. Peso's doing his best to keep things interesting.

    The VR46 team are doing well - a championship winning bike with all that data and two superb riders (I guess Bezzechi didn't particularly like that circuit)?

    Amazing to see 9 riders bin their bikes, and all without the assistance of MM! That circuit seems to be just a little bit bumpy.
     
  19. Watching the race again what the hell is this on the under carriage of Oliveira’s bike? :neutral:
    (It looks like his bike got it’s ballbag out to me lol)

  20. It's a bumper as they thought MM might be in attendance.
