    It's fun watching Fabio Quart.....he's having fun, even though that nasty tank slapper dis-located his left shoulder. I'd MUCH rather see him win than Mav. Too bad the Old Man can't be up there playing with the kids.

    Unless Honda decides to call MM to Japan, this championship is his.

    Then to see Rossi riding around on a mission to just finish and not fall down, it’s time for Yamaha to change course for next year. Hopefully, Rossi comes to the same conclusion on his own.

    Oh and, no doubt Crutchlow had the pace to win but MV got in his way.

    I didn’t watch after the finish of the race, did MV get docked time for exceeding track limits? If so, and Cal had kept on his tail he may have been able to manage to pull 2nd

    "Its so unfair. Rossi never wins when we watch. He needs to practice a lot, a lot, a lot!"

    My 5yo chirps me non stop about Rossi too. She's a Marquez fan (have no idea where I went wrong), but all race long loves asking "hey daddy, where's your guy? at the BACK?"

    The kids slept over at Nana's last night so I got up early and watched the race in peace lol.

    My 7yr old said “Daddy, do you remember when Marc Marquez won the race, and he did the floss? Do you think he’ll do the floss today?”

    MM on a roll.
    Rossi should retire.
    Cal showed his toughness.

    I think this is the first race that I thought to myself that Rossi needs to retire. He's making too many mistakes and when he isn't making mistakes, he can't reel in and pass anyone. He may still be having fun but it's time...

    Cal looked good and didn't put it in the kitty litter for once.

    Does no one still notice the Rossi stands? He’s not going anywhere next year. He’s been pretty darn good up until this past season. Maybe he’s not adapting to the bike. Maybe the new girl is a distraction. Maybe he is getting older. But if he can consistently fight for a top 6, those stands will be packed specifically for him. To me, going out on top means to be able to still get a podium here and there in your final season after such a lustrous career. Do I think he could do that next year and the following? Absolutely. What did he finish position wise in the championship the last 2 years? Honest question, I’ve forgotten.
