got...but their engine usually very reliable...


and coz no tebo.. so less things to go wrong...



the famous rossi engine blow last year also due to bike over-revved while travelling mid air at full throttle at topspeed... (plus new ecu they overlooked that safety factor)





but they are free to switch any engine they like from their 7 declared engine on race weekend


if 1 broken... then they left with 6 engine for the season...

Haha love wet race at the begining

Dovi beat Baby alien..

Unlucky vr.

There's goes the 10th championship, for good.

Still have a (slim chance) next year. TBH this year it's the bike that's not performing so good.

Congrats to Hafiz Syahrin for the podium! "Rainmaster" KIP really struggling in Moto2.

Haha awaiting hafiz win soon

I am sure KIP be better after years of polishing hahahaha

malaysian riders sure perform in wet...

IMO too soon on Moto2, this year he should have been on Moto3 still. 2 wins in Moto3 debut but almost always last on Moto2. It's a confidence killer.

great ride by hafiz.. i think if he can get away from luthi much earlier, he will heave eough tyre to fight for champion...

anyway..great ride by him...the commentator couldnt stop talking about him all race long...



as for rossi...poor uncle... he is lucky it was slow crash and doesnt hurt his leg much....




adam noruddin wasted his top 5 chance.... saw this too many times... he need someone to train his mental to keep calm....

looks like he couldnt cope with pressure and make mistake...


and pawi... jump to moto2 is too early....if he spend another season in moto3, he could learn many more race trick...

i guess it just a matter of time for him to understand riding bigger bike and fully utilize the power available... (probably he is lacking on braking and mid corner speed)

It seems like the Honda was not easy to ride in wet, Crutchlow, Pedrosa either crashing or complaining no grip.. top 10 only 1 Honda.. MM really the rider king by mastering that to 2nd, almost a 1st...

Others seem to have difficulty putting heat to the rear wheels

What great race, another battle until the last corner! Hats off to Dovi for being able to do that twice now to MM and this time in the wet!

So now basically a 2 dog fight as MV chances is already slim which is a pity. VR now officially already out of the contention.

I think Dovi will be in MM head now, the nemesis that beaten him last corner twice.. never in MM motogp career he was beaten like that, usually he's the one doing that to others, haha...

This is good for motogp, close fights like this

crutchlow is just reckless...


pedrosa pulak too conservative...thats why he were having hard time to put heat on the tyre...but on dry saw he started to improve again...

crutchlow has higher probability to crash than finishing the race..

If not mistaken VR had done that to MM as well at least once, no? In Assen 2 years ago was a last corner battle at the last chicane with MM which VR won and MM crashed, right? I think got more races like that also between these 2.

the last corner effort in that motegi race to me is just MM just wanna try last hurrahhh....

(nothing harm) to him and dovi.... just if dovi was some sort of newbie, sure will fall into the trap and MM end up leading to finishing line...


its like tag pull n push game.. lol


plus i think MM already maxed the tyre and couldnt do anything more to counter after the mistake several corners earlier...

if not he will leading comfortable win on that lap...
