MotoGP | 2023 | Race 6 | Mugello | Italy | June 8 - 10

agreed, I’ve never been to a Euro GP, and while my Spanish is decent so I figured it’d be Jerez or Valencia, I think Mugello is the coolest venue

new all time speed record by BB33 on the KTM too
366.1kph holy shit!

 

FIFY since none of us knuckleheads know what kph is.

 

That's 227 mph

 

That move by Binder did not look penalty worthy.

 

Yeah first lap first corner and sandwiched between a couple bikes. Seemed a little harsh to me. I love rooting for Jack, but his wild move on Marquez seemed way worse.

 

Not sure about that penalty on Binder... He was crunched and if AM had a better start he wouldn't even have been there.

Decent sprint. A couple exciting laps due to rain but then it became a procession. Hopefully tomorrow doesn't devolve into a parade after lap 8.

 

That’s like topping some sport in the special Olympics.

 

Marquez got Marquezed

 

damn... that’s ruthless...

how do you think his hair looked for the Instagram post for it?

 

Miller has raced him like that since Moto3... nobody cries and just gets on with racing... love it!

 

I’ve always thought that track looked wide until todays race. 3 wide at times was insane.

 

Very sunny and hot here today. Rain forecast for 3:00 PM, so hopefully they get the GP race done in the dry.

 

Moto2 carnage. Everyone up and OK. 5 out so far?

 

Why in the heck would Lopez have to serve the LL penalty again? He own goaled himself plenty!!! Move on. What a dumb rule.

 

I'd guess they do the 'clean long lap penalty' rule with no exceptions to eliminate any BS/interpretation of the phrase 'clean'. Clean is clean, keep it within the white lines period.

Even if Lopez had crashed in the sand, he would get another penalty.

 

That Acosta skit was stoopid AF with the 'pizza delivery'.

 

You guys are Rins’ leg? External fixators... at the Florence hospital... I haven’t seen them used in a very long time... and considering the options available today am really surprised....

there is no way he’ll do anything for two months and then the real recovery after the removal... they suck ass and I’d much rather have temporary internal hardware so I could walk and train ASAP and get it removed at the end of the season

 

Yeah, makes sense, I guess I shouldn’t call the rule dumb unless I can come up with a better one. But the application of the rule in this particular situation was still dumb, lol.

 

Marquez out. He looks pissed he crashed and didn’t get injured.

 

Honda: Go Taka!.........
