MotoGP 2017 Qatar March 23-26 (spoilers)

Sounds like they could use some Daytona Wheelie man

 

That sucks when you're only allowed so many engines a year!

 

damn, Zarco, Folger ... nice to see!

 

maverick Gronk-spiking the gauntlet down.

could've heard a pin drop in the Repsol garage.

 

Folger with 3rd in FP1. Wow. I guess everyone put on the sifts in case of the rain.

Maverick is flying. Wow.

Lorenzo looked good also with his brief place at the top. What did they say 347kph.

 

Shocked.

 

I bet Rossi won't be friendly with his team mate for much longer.

 

Would you expect anything less?

 

She's no Suzi. But she'll do.

 

There was an episode of their video magazine where she did a lap in a car with Vinales. I can see and hear in my head that "Oh Maverick!" She let out when he stomped on the gas out of the pit lane.
I think I know who what he did that night.

 

Quick impressions on first practice.

1:54.316 Mavrick Vinales

Once again dominates like he has in pre season. His time is faster than Lorenzo’s pole position last year (1:54.4xx)!

1:54.92 Mar Marquez

Great start for MM on one of his weaker tracks of the calendar. It’s still over half a second slower than MV so we will see what else is left in his locker.

1:55.210 Dani Perdrosa

Very surprised to see this guy starting the testing so high up. Is this the year he will win a Championship lol? He seems to be generating more heat in his tires over last year.

1:55.587 Jonas Folger

Damn impressive and consistent with impressive times over preseason. Rookie or not very good start!

1:55.607 Jorge Lorenzo

Not too shabby considering he has the biggest adaptation to overcome in my opinion. His top speeds are looking menacing!

 

Maverick's chick is as bad ass as it gets and would have asked him to go harder... on the gas.

 

It was too hot during the day so they added lights. then the track was to cold at night so they heated the track.

And motoamerica cant get 37 people in the stands

 

Qatar doesn't have 37 people in the stands either. The money isn't coming from spectators.

 

nope......oil money = bottomless pockets

 

sorry,im impressed with escargo in 10th on the priller.

Smith....last again.

 

I find this totally unacceptable.

 

The chick from last year is long gone!

 

Maybe he did hit Amy.

 

Those Ducati's even though may never finish on the podium, except for that one RedBull circuit that they themselves designed with 4 straightaways, but have some top speed over the others still.

If it rains, JL is going to be in about 15th place though.
