And wow, Vinales' charge from 11th to 1st was something else, like he was on a different level. Its great to see that we don't have another year of the Ducati Cup.
I've seen some good rides from Mav but this one looked like a totally different Mav. He and the bike looked as one. I hope this isn't a one off for him.
Who wants to be on the front straight? There's another motorsport for that type of viewing, it's called Drag Racing.
+1...If he didn't DNF on the last lap at Portimao and finished 2nd, he'd be 2nd in the points, (-4)-ish to Marteene I realize IF is a big word and there will be many in every race, all year long.
Ok then there were more people on the 18th green for the winner to finish 30 minutes ago compared to 2/3rds of Cota attendees today
Maverick will make 24+ million Euros by next September, all for riding a motorcycle fast. Doesn’t even have to win.
Man all 3 classes were awesome today! Lets hope for more of the same of the rest of the season. JRob looking strong to start the season too! Will he be the next American in motoGP?
Serious racing today. Great job, Roberts! Great job, Maverick! Acosta is coming up--we need a new talent like that. Great to watch Bastianini put it on Martin. Great day of racing.
What was the thing that has Roberts doing much better this year? Back to American? The switch to Pirellis? and a question that comes from that, any reports on the differences between the Dunlops and Pirellis?
I’m starting to think Joe thought Italitrans was this amazing team coming off a Moto2 championship and I’m thinking it was more Bastianini than it was them. It sounds like they’ve got some great experienced guys now at American racing team.
I don’t get Oliviera. Dude has had some great results in the past and is no where on the same bike that won todays race.
Are you stoned? Anyone can pick up a golf club and swing it at a ball. It takes serious commitment to race a motorcycle. So yeah, there's going to be a difference in market appeal and $$$.
Do the rules allow for that? I thought once your bike was selected for the year that was it except for the one time aero change. (Honda and Yamaha can do more). That would be like M. Marquez getting the ‘24 midseason. There were discussions of Raul switching once Aprilia could produce additional 24s. I just don’t see how that is possible.
