MotoGP | 2022 | Race 7 | Le Mans | France | May 13 - 15

P2 tells a bit different story. Lots of crashes as well.

 

MM93 will be looking for some fast tail sections tomorrow in FP3.... (P14 currently)

 

13 riders all within 1 sec of each other in P2 Moto2. Joe Roberts leading the Americans. Cam and SDK seem to be struggling.

 

this is not going to be an easy weekend choosing riders

 

Rossi Moore on live timing!

 

Pressure. What would Tom Brady do…

 

Beast laying down the gauntlet on Martinator and Duc’s possible decision…

 

Truthfully, i didn't think it was close. Pecco & Beast >>>> Other Duc Riders

 

Liking the shoulder camera view on Aleix Espargaro

 

terrible time so far for sdk

 

Hard to envision how it could be going worse.

edit: I spoke too soon. Apparently the entire team is a shit show. Cam came back to pits a couple times and only got a couple laps in at speed.

 

Another shitty day of qualifying for all the Americans…

 

In Moto2...KTM red bull team is just the cream at the top. Drop Joe or Cam in that team and they are up front winning. Period.

Now the other teams should be spying on how they manage things.

 

And he was the fastest 600 rider here, that tells you a little bit of the quality of riders in MA.

 

Yeah, wtf was up with Cam being in the pits so long? Didnt that happen in an earlier round?

 

My recollection is he had transmission issues at COTA and then dropped out of a race due to shifting issues.

 

Aren't those engines sealed ?

 

That’s a bit of a stretch. I’d agree the 600 class isn’t at stacked as it once was. But I don’t think that’s indicative of the series as a whole. As much as superbike may not be the most fun racing to watch, we’ve had a couple guys come out of there in recent years and immediately show reasonable speed/potential on the world level. We’ve had world superbike and gp riders come here in sbk and be held in check quite well.

It’s been a weird season across the board this year and I do agree that I don’t think sdk was ready to make the jump. But saying that’s indicative of a weak domestic series I don’t believe is really supported by results.

 

So if I want to win at the next track day,all I have to do is lower my tire pressure.
