    Best results are to turn on the develop menu in Safari:

    1. Safari -> Preferences -> Advanced
    2. Check "Show Develop menu in menu bar"
    3. Go to page with video
    4. Develop -> User Agent -> ... iPad

    The page will reload, tell the server you are on an iPad and you will get the non-flash video stream.

    Another is Fubo which has the Bein channel, I got it for $6.99 a month. They have an app to play on Roku and I also watched the race in safari on my iPhone. But, I have no way to record it and watch it later.

    So the magic number for winglets is two? More, you crash. Less, you're off the box.

    Crew chiefs: write it down. Two.

    Glad to see Smith getting a factory ride. Hopefully he doesn't crash himself to death trying to make it go fast.

    I'm not sure if you realize this, but Lorenzo can win the three more titles in a row and the majority of fans out there (not just Uccios) would still favor Rossi.

    If that's true it's absolutely genius

    I believe that they would add too much drag for a low HP bike like Moto3.

    They have been banned in Moto 3 and Moto 2. One ban takes effect immediately, the other in 2017. I'm too old/stupid to remember which class takes effect immediately. I believe I saw it on motogp.com

    That's good, I enjoy the small bike races because of how close they are.

    I'm personally tired of looking at them and hope they go away. If it disturbs the slip stream though, I bet the teams will fight to keep it

    He could win the championship 10 more times, become a porn star and five-time ultimate smackdown wrestling champion and still, no one but Dart, 12 spaniards and his agent would like him. :D

    I watched Lorenzo walk from his pre-race room to the pits numerous times, didn't stop to take any pictures with fans, didn't sign any autographs and was a dick the whole weekend.
    Rossi signed many different items, took pictures, chatted with his fans and was the main attraction the whole weekend. It's not all about you finish, its how you treat the people that come to see the races.

    Past Glory I still have several AVON calendars from the 90's

    If Lorenzo suddenly did a 180 on that, would it benefit him in any way? The haters would still trash him, it would just change to "He's trying to suck up to the fans now", and be seen as an artificial, forced move to try and be like Rossi. I prefer him as "the dick", so focused on winning races and championships. Has kind of an Eddie Lawson, Jeff Stanton vibe to it. In the end, Lorenzo is who he is, Rossi is who he is, Marquez is who he is.
