Yeah I'm gutted too. Was really looking forward to that race too, It seems to find the limit you got to have a crash but I don't think he's found the limit yet even after last year :smile5: He's proved he's got the pace but just needs to put it all together. He defo sounds like he's focused with his interview after the race. It's good to have Brits doing well in moto 3,2 and gp for a change.
 
That moto GP was a race not to be missed.Nobody on gods earth could have predicted that result. Dovi had the race of his life while Vale gave him a masterclass in late braking and corner speed. Looks like we are in for a right hum dinger of a season. Its good to see the Honda and Marquez circus wont be getting it all their own way. Moto three is a slip streaming compo but it still had me on the edge of my seat. Big up for BT Sport.....absolutely crackin coverage over the whole three days but i wish they would drop Toseland as a reporter.....hes like a stoned porky pig.............two weeks and counting.

Quatar doesn't show real form, last year Rossi was close. But over the year got hammered by a the charismatic Marquez. Besides Ducatti,s are subsidised with more fuel and a few other things aparantly.
Mind you I love seeing the Hondas beaten so convincingly, someones going to have to fall on there sword for that performance.
 
True enough the Ducatis will lose the extra fuel and soft tyre but they say that it wont harm them and today was convincing for me.Its good to see Ducati on the pace and Susuki not far behind and both with brand new bikes.

I honestly think Pedrosa had his chance that year his throttle stuck open. It might be a great opportunity for him to get out, he's hardly old and hardly skint. What a way to retire.

Ducati are hardly going to be honest about what will affect them are they. Time will tell, Hondas will be back in no time.
 
If Pedros is out who will get the bike ? Hope it's stoner I think he's itching to get back he's riding in the sazuka 8 hr can't stand him personally but it would be nice to see him against Marquez.for me Ducati are cheating its there problem if the bike is crap they done it for years in wsb change the rules to suit them

Totally agree Rich, if you've got a crap bike then its down to you to sort it and not rely on concessions. Absolutely chuffed for Suzuki and its a real shame Danni has retired without a championship ,but always the bridesmaid as they say. Now....on to the more serious matter of who will replace Danni.......my money is on whingeing Stoner cos there isn't a better candidate at the moment. He is the Honda test rider which means he has spent more time on the bike than anyone else and i cant think of anyone else on a Honda or out of contract who could slide straight into a factory ride and i'd be very surprised if they offer it to Cal.......all bets are on!
 
I wouldn't be too upset if Vale won the championship this year.......my missus was shouting at the telly for him to knock Dovi off.......poor woman doesn't quite get the concept of sporting!
 
Pity Jonny rea jumped ship I could have seen him on the best seat in the house it's got to be Stacy moaner cal is a distant maybe in my thinking ?

The term factory bike is a bit grey to me cal said on that meet hodgy thing that he didn't get one upgrade of Ducati last year not so factory that then .what you two ride then out nice ?

Can get a bit lively with a cross wind otherwise still steady as a rock in a straight line, back right off now in the bends, to old to bounce again which is why I`ll probably sell this year.
