In the last few weeks, it looks like Bags is happy slamming into other riders also, so it should be a great season. With a much faster bike, you would think he would walk away from the the GP23?
^ MM has nothing to lose relatively. I can totally see Pecco not wanting to concede to someone who could ultimately be a huge rival like Marc, but man - if what happened at Portimao would've happened again yesterday, we'd all be wondering 'WTF' he was thinking. I'm hoping he felt a little more ballsy knowing Martin had already crashed out. Cause if not, that could've easily ended up in another 37pt loss on the weekend to Martin.
was not a huge MM fan, but no way can ya deny the guys talent.. or determination. I'm only bummed the Ducati is clearly the bike to be on right now. KTM has it's moments, and Acosta may be the "next big thing".
Break down implies it actually ran at some point. I'm currently having the plastic coolant pipe on the back of the motor replaced. 40 bucks for the pipe. 2000 in labor to take half the engine apart to get to it. Just waiting for the "while we are in there" call with a shit ton more work to do.
