MotoGP | 2025 | Race 4 | Qatar | Lusail | Apr 11- Apr 13

I got Rossi
























‘s nutswingers to be conspicuously absent yet again.

 

Glowing rotors, book it.

 

Did Martin actually come out and say he'll be racing? Would love to see the #1 under the lights!

It will also be interesting to see team with the experience of the Americas Flyaway under their belts run Qatar. With its usual position at the front of the calendar I feel like it's Pot Luck who will be fast in the first sessions.

Anyone else got Diggia for the win?

If Enea continues the upward and onward movement with the KTM, top 5 is possible.

 

For the VR46 crowd to relive the glory days:

Martin will race - or at least grid up

 

Well this video just proves Rossi was Never Ever an Alien.
Thank you.

 

Thanks Bird. I’m loving the two week spacing of races. It’s just enough time to get the urge of wanting another race weekend.
This has never been one of Marc’s tracks but he’s usually always been up there with the lead. I think with how he’s been riding that this will be an Argentina like weekend. It’ll be the factory Ducatis against the VR46 Ducatis against Alex. Throw Fermin in for a top 9.

 

correction: travel to Qatar

 

I think Acosta will pull it off this weekend.

 

I'm just throwing some hopeful positivity toward Yamaha and Honda to have some solid results. Yamaha used to love this track.

 

The Yamahas will get eaten alive going down that start/finish straight.

 

So far this year they've had some of the highest top speeds posted. The Honda's are the only ones typically down 4-6mph on the rest which seem to all now be really close with KTM 1-2 ahead on top at most.

Gone are the days when Dovi on the Duc would just crush dudes by 20 bike lengths there on the main straight.

 

Interested to learn what @Robby-Bobby's ringer Bodie gets to do in Qatar. He's certainly gotten someone else's attention:

Also interesting to read that Rob is actively working to secure funding to add another bike and rider to his team.
All cool stuff!

 

Anyone else notice how much better the mood is in the HRC box without Puig being there this year? Funny how that works.

 

Did you not see how Quarteraro got dropped by the Ducatis on the long straight at COTA?

 

No. He was too far back. Never saw.
