MotoGP | 2023 | Race 16 | Phillip Island | Australia | Oct 20-22

But.....if Jorge would have just maintained a 2 sec lead instead of pushing so hard to get up to a 3.5 sec lead, he would have had enough tire left to hold off the pack on the last lap.

 

He was pissed off in his backstage interview, complaining twice that the organizers were not prepared and didn't play the French National anthem on the podium. You can actually see him complain about it to the FIM president on the podium. Decided to sing it himself loudly after it actually ended. Because yeah, we actually heard it loud and clear on TV
before he sang it. They played it.

Kids, wear your ear plugs to race.

 

Are you a proud Papa, though?

 

What?

 

That was the day I said he was never going to be world champion. Terol head had the stronger bike and kept beating him to the line in races but that was no reason for Zarco to finally lose his mind like that. He was completely minded-fucked. Four years later, he surprised the hell out of me and turned things around to win back to back Moto 2 championships.

After two years in MGP, actually, during the second year, signs of the old Zarco resurfaced. With every season that went by, my conviction that he would never win a race grew. When he signed with Honda last month, I said "game over. He will forever be the new Raymond Poulidor." It was already too late for this year. Since he's been with Ducati, he always fades in the second half of the season. And I was right until today.

 

My god you have the memory of a elephant.

Papa… serious Question… how do videos like that get reversed? I’m sure it wasn’t your YouTube bid but please explains how that happens… all the numbers and letters are backwards… hands opposite… throttle on left… etc… I know I see this once in awhile but I’ve never understood why or how that shit happens…

 

I'm guessing it's easy to do with a video editing piece of software. They do it to get around lawyers asking youtube to remove unauthorized copyrighted content. I'm sure that they would lose in court but it's probably not worth the lawyers' time.

 

It's all done with lights and mirrors!

 

Every time i see Zarco’s face i feel sorry for him. Looks like severe depression…

 

Oh! Damn! I never thought it was on purpose… that’s kind of neat… I’m sure software will mirror image anything nowadays but it never occurred to me that it might not be a mistake… thanks Papa

 

Naaaa, if he had managed the lead earlier (saved the tire) he could have made it to the end...

 

If I'm understanding the schedule correctly things start up again in about 20 minutes.

 

you just have to turn him upside down… then he’s smiling…

 

I am lost. I'm recording everything that's on TV on two channels over here between 1:00 AM and 5:00 AM. The one that twitter now says will be showing Moto 3 at 1:00 AM still has a porno scheduled in that time slot on its programming grid.

 

Paris Hilton back in Moto3?

 

Moto3 - 7 pm est , Moto 2 - 8:15 pm est , Moto GP - 10 pm est Live on Their site

moto 2 warm up as we speak

 

Looks a bit moist.

 

I've had this problem all year with their site. If I'm watching live and minimize it to open another tab when I go back to full screen I get no picture just sound and the schedule page. Did it to me tonight, even shut the laptop down and restarted, same bullshit. So I won't be able to watch any of it live the rest of the night. Same thing on 2 different chromebooks. They've got a major glitch in their software somewhere.
