How dejected will Lorenzo and Pedbot become this season..? They already look a little bewildered before the start of race 2! So-mo's of Marquez casually losing the front en route to taking half a second out of them probably ain't helping... And Redding missing out on Q2 by just 7 hundredths of a second That would have pissed on Aleix's chips for sure!
I think Lorenzo will be asking for more fuel and a softer tyre before you know it, either that or he'll be having peddars contract for 2015
Hard to tell from these fly-away races, but it doesn't look like Jorge is gonna put up the same sort of fight as last season. But the season doesn't really start (in my eyes at least) until they start pounding the european tracks. I hope Bradl can stay in the mix all season, that should liven things up nicely.
Marquez was instantly better than the opposition here last year and the situation hasn't changed. He has an extra something here. I'm just glad the gap has narrowed - 1 second faster was a bit embarrassing. This GP is really a fight for second and the other racers crossing fingers that M gets carried away and falls off or loses concentration on his own 400 yards in front and ditto.
Praying that Bradley Smith can finish well this race. If he can get off the line well he's got the pace to stay with them. Be good if he can give Rossi a race.
Moto 3 great race...but whats with the colouring of these modern tracks?! Now for Lowes if they ever start...
Bradley continues to impress, dispatching his team mate and ending up top Yamaha. You can't ask for much more than that. Great podium for Dovi; I'm rather afraid he's going to outshine his teammate all season. Lorenzo's season is already over by the look of things
Cal's biggest problem is that his teammate is a class act, he couldn't get the better of him at Tech3, and I can't see him doing it at Ducati either.
And has far more experience at bringing bikes together, as well as knowing how crap the old version was!
Loved the jump start OK lets go no shit something not right I am to fast ahhhh fuck it then. Honestly thinking about it how many laps you have to come in for drive through? It might be a good strategy that one for those at the back. Go before anyone is even settled at the line, do half a lap come in and boom instant middle pack
I thought that, surely if Lorenzo just pinned it and got a couple of seconds on everyone he'd of made it much further up the points, slowing down again didn't do him any favours
Still, race was boring as fook again. Race for 3rd being the only spectacle and even that wasn't full of action. It's just pockets of mini competitions, fastest Honda, fastest yamaha, fastest ducati, fastest customer honda.... It's shite. Honestly the rule book needs tearing up IMO because right now it's all so divided it's probably the most bland motorcycle racing you can watch
Bit harsh. This race was pretty boring, but so it was last year, it's just one of those tracks. I'm expecting a good season this time round.
