See everyone in 6 weeks for the British GP at Silverstone.

 

And.... would anyone like to predict the weather?

 

It looks like the British Grand Prix is going to be nice today.

 

I'm enjoying this race, but I have definitely screwed the pooch on the picks. Rusty after the summer break

 

Shit. Forgot it was a race weekend.

 

Me too, mightily !

 

Aprilia looking really strong.
As has become common, Jack goes from 1st early to waaaaaay back, while Binder works forward.

 

i went with a wet race pick. forecast said rain near race time, oh well...

 

Results are posted and we have a shake-up weekend to kick of the second half of the season (well, more like the latter 60%). Race winner was our very own Parisian Papa with a score of 95, despite (like many including myself) picking Bezzecchi to win.

On to Austria in two weeks time.

 

Looks like we sucked to the exact same degree and let @HPPT fly right past.

 

The Bird isn’t playing this year?

 

Well, damn. Good thing there wasn't an immediate technical solution to allow me to quit before the deadline.

 

He is, he just sucks like the rest of us this year.

 

Ooooh this is just top 10. Top 10 is tight on points. If you guys aren’t far behind them, a couple of strange weekends could shake things up. It’s honestly so much more fun to watch the races for me not doing this but I still may do it again in the future for the torture lol.

 

This is all gone downhill for me this year. Haven't had much time to keep up with MotoGP, this weekend I completely spaced it since I was out of town, now the MotoManager website isn't working right for me. My picks were some random strange order (it had MM93 for the win...what?? lol) and when I click on results or standings tabs I just get a white screen

 

That's been covered many times this year. You need to log out and log back in. It should fix it.

 

Yep...the changing of the practice really messed up how I looked at the game. Was hoping the new change would be good, but I'm away and just kind of based my picks off the sprint. Not always the right idea.

 

A few year ago I used to gain a bunch of valuable info from watching fp3/fp4. I barely have time to watch q1/2 anymore. I kinda make a guess now based on the grid positions, and the sprint race. And it shows.....lol

 

I agree the format has altered how to get good intel, but I also think the darn racing is more variable and that the sprints have added to uncertainty with more crashing/injuries. I re-watched the opening round, and the sprint race was fantastic, but Marini ended Bastianini's season hopes before they barely got started. Sunday's race was also great, right up until T3 on Lap 3, and that foreshadowed a lot of what I see now (in addition to ruining Miguel's season, that was looking oh-so promising). Couple that with Honda and Yamaha not making competitive bikes, and this season just seems like an outlier.
