MotoGP Qatar Race | 2018

There is a great doc on Red Bull TV about the KTM effort. I put it in the youtube thread if anyone wants some pregame action.

 

I used to think he should have tried doing 250s and MotoGP at the same time when he was at his peak to try to chase the record books. Spencer claims it drained his energy carrying over years...

My guess is Moto2 and Moto3 are a lot more ruthless than MotoGP and he probably wouldn't enjoy the hassle of getting pushed around by kids all looking to say they "beat Rossi". He's probably get punted regularly...

 

He would have a target on his back for sure. But wouldn't it be great to see him and biaggi bang bars again on the little bikes

 

I miss Dylan commentating... Simon makes me sleepy.

 

Rossi for two more years

Does practice start tonight East Coast Time?

 

No. There is no Thursday practice this year.

 

We've got 3 years of VR46 ahead of us

 

LOL

 

I miss Thursday practice.

 

Said Marquez never...

 

What's funny?

 

Tonight in the USA = Friday in Qatar.

 

I still don't get it. There used to be Thursday practice in Qatar. That's changing this year.

 

I LOL'd because if there had been a Thurs practice, we would have been discussing it last night.

Oh, gotcha.

 

8pm Thursday EDT is 3am Friday in Qatar. Yes, technically Friday, but guess what - they don't do practice at 3am. So, if there was a Thursday practice, it would be viewable in the US on Thursday. Friday practice in Qatar is viewable on Friday in the US.

 

False.

 

Did you know the USA has more than 1 time zone?

 

Did you know that Chip‘s question was specific to East Coast time?
