McPhee on pole in Moto3
MotoGP grid is, err, interesting!
McPhee is looking good, on for a podium at least, a very good chance for a win!
No idea who's going to win the main event, Karel Abraham is in with a shout, believe it or not! JLo isn't! ____________________ "Everybody needs money, that's why they call it money!" |

Don't really watch moto2 or moto3 tbh- Though I like how moto3 always reminds me just how far you can push skinny tyres like that .
Lorenzo is 16th - dude's off to such a rubbish start to the season- I wonder if his time at Ducati is going to be a carbon copy of Rossi's awful time-
I find it so strange- how can the bike make such a difference- it's supposed to be mostly about rider skill isn't it- or is it you need to realise which bike is best suited to you- stick to it and then after you have found the right fit- the full potential of rider can manifest.
Two weeks ago I found out tyre choice has an effect and also learnt that there's factory and satellite bikes where factory has significant advantages because it's the top end prototype which gets maintained and updated to the full by the actual factory.
If there's so many external factors does this not devalue the championship of a particular winner?
Rossi clearly wouldn't have killed it 7 times with the Ducati would he?
I have no idea who'll win- I don't have enough data between grid position and corresponding race finishing position and enough watching experience of motogp to be a good predictor. I love races where someone far from the front just gets off to an awesome start just zooms ahead and wins like Zarco almost did last time ____________________ Kymco Super 8 (125) Honda CBR 125

It would appear that the 2016 Ducatis, which were being raced by Dovi & Iannone last season and are now in the hands of the satellite teams, are performing better than the new 2017 Ducati GP bikes, that the official Ducati are running! I guess that they'll catch up at sometime during the season. Having said that there is the JLo factor to take into account, that being unless all the planets are aligned for him Jlo's head doesn't turn up.
Who's going to win the championship? Can't see beyond the usual suspects, Marquez, Rossi and now Vinales. Depends which head Marquez has on, the win it or bin head, or the take the points head.
IMO, of all the riders Marquez is the one right on the limits of the bike, pushing it any harder = crash! ____________________ "Everybody needs money, that's why they call it money!" |

Can't stand Marquez myself, don't know why the other riders let him get away with so much.
I do not like the "I'm coming through that gap, I know it's not big enough, but you'll crash if you don't move over" attitude. ____________________ "Everybody needs money, that's why they call it money!" |

Old Thread Alert!
The last post was made 7 years, 15 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful? |
