Austin, Texas USA | MotoGP | 2017 (Spoilers)

Marky Mark owns this joint. Mav won his first Moto2 race here. Should be fun.

Just don't see Marquez losing here. He has been peerless every year at this track.

Vinales may be up front, but I'm hoping he's smart enough to not get into too hard of a scrap and risk losing his advantage before heading to the Euro rounds, where he should really pull away.

 

in!

 

So...Lorenzo podium?

 

Length of black layout. That made me laugh.

 

Mav, Goose, Cal/Iannone

This is the year the law of averages finally catches up to Marc. He'll lead till halfway then go down pushing too much for no reason.

 

Not....a....chance.

 

I'll be watching from Turn 19.

Zarco top 5 again! Marquez will be fastest in qualifying and probably take pole. Hoping Vindaloo brings a fight. Rossi Cruises home in 2nd or 3rd.

 

Pedrosa follows Marc home for the first Honda 1-2 in a while. Rossi completes the podium. Zarco just misses the top 5, but top 7 should be workable.

 

standing bet - the german against him

 

forecast doesn't look too shabby.

 

in your leathers you picked up at the camping lot N

we might join you over there...

 

$2 says Dovi wins.

 

Phil, you are the MAN! Thanks for hauling my gear..... I didn't want to get dragged off an airplane and have to drag 3 bags with me.... Ha ha ha

 

This track is owned by Marquez, and he's not ready to sell.

1. Marquez
2. Cal
3. Mav

 

True story

 

Weather has been pretty sketchy here lately. I would not be surprised if we see some rain. Sunday looks good, though. FP1 and 2 might be a good time to pin it.
