That move by Pasini in just the space of 2 corners. Beautiful! That was an awesome final lap. 2 Italians win already. Can we see a sweep later? Hehe

Hopefully another Italian for motogp, doesn't matter who. I was expecting pasini to crash as he always does but he kept it together. Well done.

I think Rossi could've been on the podium if not for his recent injury

What a great race by Dovi, not fully fit in the morning but able to win and also recorded the highest record top speed! That wobble at 340+kph over the crest before turn 1 was  scary and good that he did not fell down! Great race also by Petrucci, was hoping he could take 2nd from Vinales but still good performance. Good damage limitation by Rossi but very disappointing by the Hondas especially a clumsy move by Pedrosa.
*
Dovi deserved it. Marquez can't beat Bautista whose on a year old ducati, honda seems to be in trouble in all championships.

So its an all italian sweep! Haha nice.

This should erase the italy loss in champions league. Hahahaha.

As for rossi if he never DNF and finish 2nd last race he would still lead the championship with no wins.

Back 2 jacque vs nakano in 250cc again in 2001. I think that frenchman is the only champion who won the title without a single race win. Hahahaha.
*
Emilio Alzamora, 125, 1999 is the only champion without race win. Jacque did win races but Nakano won more. He got the championship by virtue of more 2nd places, it was year 2000 btw. 2001 they moved up to 500s together. Jacque didn't even qualify a few races when he moved up and Nakano totally beat him.

came the 2nd half of the race, can notice that the pace of the race is getting slower.

all tried to conserve tires.

quite a turn off. sad.gif

Obviously they can't change tyres mid race like f1 so have to manage it

it was more obvious in this particular race, unlike le mans & mugello.

maybe bcoz the track temp was a bit high (54 degrees).
*
Yeah, track temperature and old tarmac. I'd say Yamaha was disadvantaged because they missed out on testing but everyone was having problems too. Lorenzo dropped off mid race then got his pace back. At least Rossi ahead of Vinales, can claw a bit of points back even though he lost positions in the championship.

Well2, suddenly Dovi and his Duc won back to back!
Yeah this season is really up and down, seems heavily dependent on tires. One race can be at fighting at the top then the next race not even top 10 like MV! Hopefully the next race in Assen will be VR turns to win with MM & DP in the mix to make the title fight closer.
*
As of now, all tracks seem like "new" tracks for the boys. It's an interesting season indeed. No one really knows and can predict what will happen and who will be competitive at which track.

Yeah, more unpredictable. Surprisingly VR has not done too well so far. I thought with his immense experience he should be the one to profit the most as he should be able to adapt in most conditions. But yeah I guess his fall in Le Mans is the biggest blow so far or else he would have been at least still 3rd with 20 more points, just 8 points back from MV.
*
Yeah unfortunate for him, just when we thought he got to grips with the new bike. But what he said is true, mv went to Yamaha from Suzuki is an improvement that's why he has more confidence, VR on the other hand went from a very good Yamaha to a lesser(underdeveloped?) Yamaha. From what I've seen over the years, if you go from a lesser bike to a good bike your performance improve substantially where as if u go from a good bike to a lesser one it drops a lot, mostly because of confidence. Eg, Rossi to ducati. Even Dovi from Honda to ducati took him many years to improve. He was quite good on the Honda till Honda dropped him

Renault was a good handling car with good engine then,when he went back to ferrari the car sucked so he also lost his confidence a bit.
