MotoGP | 2023 | Race 5 | Le Mans | France | May 12-14

278k over the weekend, 117k for the Sunday race

Motorcycle Grand FrancePrix: new attendance record at Le Mans - The Limited Times (newsrnd.com)

 

that’s big but is that the largest Sunday attendance ever? Or just 1000gp hype?

I thought some of the Italian and Spanish rounds were over 100k annually...

what was attendance like at Sachering(sp)?

I remember you talking about the amazing races in Germany.

edit* read the article... record for France

 

Oh thank God. I thought of the thick glasses hockey brothers and not the boy band. I proudly retain my man card. Others of you need to relinquish yours.

As for MV vs Pecco. I originally thought it was more MV and was pissed he confronted Pecco while he was still laying on the ground of an accident MV caused. I rewatched and still feel it’s mostly racing but MV has no right to complain. He ran wide making his pass and then tried to come back across the track to get a better line for the next corner. Problem is Pecco had a tighter (correct) line exiting, carried more speed out and already occupied that space. When they made contact I think Pecco was along side if not a bit in front. Last I checked, wrecks were rarely caused by the rider on the outside. MV can pound sand.

 

On the NBC broadcast they misrepresented the weekend total as the Sunday total. I mentioned to my GF how unbelievable the number was because it's flirting with Indy 500 level attendance.

 

You are certainly entitled to your opinion, no matter how wrong you are.

 

Yep.

 

Duh, guess that should have been really obvious lol

 

Yeah well, the Marquez brothers play with barbies and my little pony's

 

Can you show us on the Barbie where either Marquez brother touched you?

 

as my Statistics Professor taught us:
"traue keiner Statistik, die du nicht selbst gefälscht hast.'"

- don't trust any Statistics you haven't skewed yourself -

the motogp commentators made it sound the same

 

If you watch it with any regularity, you know that’s total day count.

 

For a Biden rally...

 

Wasn't it really a electric toy car race track?

 

obviously

still odd that their wording is not accurate

 

I have no idea how you see that lol ...

On Pecco's onboard shot you can see Mav to the left the whole time and Pecco just turned right down into him.... all Pecco had to do was look left. How could he not see Mav there? Even if Mav ran wide on entry Pecco should've seen it.

 

Need some?

 

err what? i don't think Pecco expected him to stand up his bike
@20 seconds

 

I don't think either Mav or Pecco are known for pulling MM93 level shenanigans that include willfully torpedoing a fellow competitor, so it seems like 2 racers going for the same spot at the same time to me.

 

MM seemed to have had some fun at least
