MotoGP 2017 Qatar March 23-26 (spoilers)

if they race under rain tomorrow ,the streams going through the track will make things dangerous. especially the one in the braking zone for T1! spooky

 

Ya, 10th and 12th are definitely not how Rossi and Lorenzo wanted to start this year...

 

Too bad there wasn't much to watch but some broom stick action

The start of the race will be interesting.
MV on pole position has a good chance of winning.
Ionnone 2nd good for Suzuki. A surprise I would say.
Zarco and Redding from the 2nd row I'm sure they didn't mind the qualifying getting cancelled.
Folger and Cal on the 3rd row I think Cal could have done better if they qualified.
Rossi from 10th his response as to why his teammate is faster is classic!
Don't think JL will be thrilled about 12th!

 

what sucks is how many times I have used this to poke fun at some friends.

 

It's far worse Lorenzo than it is for Rossi. Rossi is used to starting from the third row and getting to the top 4 in a couple of laps. Lorenzo, not so much. So starting from 12th, I doubt he makes up more than three spots by the time it's all over.

 

If it's even damp out there at race start just count Lorenzo totally out of it.

 

You are probably right. Rossi is way better at dicing thru the pack than Lorenzo. I just wonder what happened to the kid that came in to MotoGP willing to put it all on the line for results. Georgie is going to have to become that guy again if he wants to get any decent results with the Duc...

 

Whaat were you saying?

 

He grew up.

It's just the first weekend, man. Plenty of time left to complete the mission: winning just one.

 

August is only a few short months away, said the current butler.

 

$100 that he will end up ahead of zarco at the end of the year.

 

Doesn't it rain every year at this shitty track? I hate Losail. It's a boring event, boring track, nobody shows up and only reason they even go is Carmelo wants that oil money.

 

To the AFF or just to my PayPal account?

it was only dirty.

rain in the desert is not common

 

Better tell that to whatever Jinn or Genie put the jinx on Losail. Not the first time.

 

That time sheet gotta be wrong.

Redding? Inside the top 10?

 

actually he topped fp2

 

iirc 2009 only

 

Also the 2015 test and this year's test and now the race. Could be why they sent rain tires and have plans for running wet.
