    Wow.....what a race!! Arguably the top 3 riders in the world head to head in the final laps of the race!!

    Hats off to Jorge Martin but Marquez one step closer to the top step!! Bagnaia must be fuming :mad:

    Brilliant!!!:)

    Agreed, the sprint was good too, Marquez off the line!!! makes you wonder where he would have been if he qualified further up the grid (in both races). Young Acosta is great and the future, if he had just took his time a bit in the main race.

    It's looking to be another great season, hopefully it will come down to the last race/few races before the new champ is crowned again.

    Doesn't surprise me as HRC appear to be moving away from Spanish riders. Mir to leave at the end of the season?

    Wouldn't surprise anyone, from the noises he is making it looks like he is setting his stall out for retirement!! "don't know how much my body can take of this etc." or he is putting the feelers out for a better ride, which wouldn't be hard right now, Honda are in a dark place in motoGP ATM, Talk of Marini wanting to buy out of his contract too.

    They should put Greg Haines on the Honda.
    I'll end my TNT subscription if those two come over. I might even sell my bike.

    Almost makes me glad I'll only watch the highlights and have to deal with Eric and Ernie from MotoGP TV doing the commentary.

    Despite saying in an interview yesterday Aleix would like to see Marquez take his place at Aprilia 'it would be a dream' he said!!!o_O

    There is no way that these two haven't been planning this for months, best pals and all that!!!

    I think that is a bad and shortsighted move by Ducati. Will cause serious damage to their project to bring on young new riders

    I would have liked to see him go to KTM with his Red Bull links etc. He probably thought it might not be a safer bet than the Ducati for another shot at the title. He'd need a year on the KTM where as he's done his year on a Ducati.

    The worst thing about MM joining the factory team will be even more shots cutting to the garage to see his glakey fatha standing with his fingers crossed, or being animated, and to add to our misery he has been joined by MM's bird!!

    PLEASE Dorna show us last place battles or duels mid pack, we want to see bike racing not parents.
