Looking like Marquez is going to boss this one again, and the most exciting class would seem to be Moto 2.
Lowes is setting the pace so far in Moto 2.
Nothing interesting in Moto 3. More generic fast Spanish lads from the newly titled "Junior Moto 3 championship" (former CEV championship).

The financial irregularities of Crutchlow's key sponsor doesn't seem to be affecting him yet.
Would have expected Redding to be higher on a factory bike, but there is still time, and fully expect him and the Marc VDS team to get him further up the grid come Sunday.
Was anyone expecting the Suzuki to finish that high up and not explode as well? ____________________ My Flickr |

I am looking forward to seeing what Aleix Espargaro can do on a better bike, his 7th place finish in the final standings last year on a CRT machine was imho immense. |

Cracking races in all classes!
Contains Spoilers, BEWARE!
Nice to see Marquez get a taste of his own medicine for a change, nerfed off the track mid corner, mind you he still couldn't resist having a go himself when he was making up some places.
I think Rossi was sand bagging during the race, not taking the slipstream on the straight, then turning the wick up for the last blast to the finish line, classic Rossi!
Love it when Rossi wins, after over a hundred GP wins, he still looks, genuinely, ecstatic!
Mr Honda will not be happy, now his race pace advantage seems to have evaporated! ____________________ "Everybody needs money, that's why they call it money!" |

Epic race. Those Ducati's are finally flying again.
Rossi was just too fast for them at the end. Classic stuff! ____________________ NSR125RR - ZXR750H1 - ZX9R E1 - GSF600S - GSF600SK3 - VFR400-NC30 - SV1000N - ST1100-R - CBR900RR-R - GSF1200SK5 - GSF600SK1 - VFR1200FA - GSXR1000K2 - ZZR1400 D8F

Pedrosa's season is over before it started, just said that he needs to take a break from racing to sort out an ongoing issue with his arm.
Cal on a repsol honda? The return of Stoner. Bad news for Dani either way. ____________________ Yamaha FZR400RR 3tj

A lot of chatter about how fast the ducatis were, yet the Hondas had the top speeds, on the straight.
Doesn't bode well for Honda as they were considered the best handling and fastest bikes last year.
Neither Marquez or Pedrosa made any real inroads into the leaders lap times, Marquez had a go but couldn't maintain it.
Looks like all the other manufacturers made bigger improvements, over the winter, than Honda!
On top of that Pedrosa's out, all is not well for the big "H"! ____________________ "Everybody needs money, that's why they call it money!" |

Old Thread Alert!
The last post was made 9 years, 38 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful? |
