Last time JL ahead, JL said he was helping Dovi get a tow because he is faster, I was expecting same comment after the race but the race ended early for them.

From my POV incident started when Dovi ran wide and took JL with him, DP saw a gap and went for it, JL just closed in from a different line and BANG!. It's a racing incident and all contributed but I think JL should have looked behind. He knew DP was there and should have been more careful. Such bad luck for DP, he seems very disappointed, he may retire at the end of the season.

True, why fix something that's not broken.

Zarco riding a year-old(2 year old?) bike which has done extensive development and previous race data. Even rookie HS adapted easily(although in Jerez he had a sore bum and could not ride properly). That being said, Yamaha development team hasn't been developing as quick as their rivals. time to get new test riders, more wildcard entries and electronics team.

Zulfahmi leaving Moto2

Kinda sad but I respect him for setting his ego aside and admitting he can't do it.

This is good news but doesn't really make much difference since they all on the same engine. Hopefully it's just a start to join motogp.

That was really lucky.

Dovi crashed, Zarco crashed. Now we need Marquez to crash

James Toseland is right.

Without MM the championship would be so interesting.

Rumours marc vds will jv/taken over by petronas sic and have hs55 and jl99 as riders on Yamaha m1.

Many things wrong with the rumour imo.

1. Would jl99 take a paycut? Obviously they won't /can't spend as much as ducati.
2. With Malaysian new government situation, I don't think petronas has that much money to spare on establishing their own motogp team yet.
3. Marc VDS only having issue with Bartholomew and no reason to quit yet.

Regardless of rumours or not I don't mind having jl99 there. Hs55 can learn a lot from him but then with 1 year experience he could even beat jl who needs to adapt back to the Yamaha.
Interesting to see.

He says he's going to a factory team. Aprilia /Honda/ Ducati still options.

JL may take the paycut but I'm not sure if he is willing to go to a satellite team. Even VR took a paycut but it was for a factory team. From another rumour, Jonathan Rea is on the brink of signing with Honda. JL could move to SBK to take the factory Kawasaki seat but he did say he is staying for another 2 years. Maybe JL will go to Suzuki, that's why Iannone lost his ride. Iannone didn't do so good last year but this year is a different story. He topped the times in FP. I think it's a huge loss for Suzuki. He is very experienced now. Heck he even beat Dovi a lot when he was at Ducati whereas Lorenzo can't even touch Dovi.

I totally support a total swap with Ducati. He didn't moan and bitch (not much) when they kicked him for Lorenzo. Between The Maniac and Petrux, I prefer the Maniac.

Joan mir, but nothing signed yet. I think Suzuki needs experienced rider for development.

Hope all except MM get good points to close the championship points gap.

I should wish more in the future. Second in the championship is really close. Seems like Rossi has a new girlfriend? I see a girl there.

He couldn't save it this time coz he ran out of tarmac. I believe if the gravel wasn't there he could have made it. But this crash is quite good for the championship. 2nd position is as tight as ever. only 12 points separate 2nd to 7th.

To be safe need 3 more lol

So far MM has been lucky. He has not had any major injuries from his falls, unlike Dani Pedrosa.

As expected, Pedrosa parting ways with hrc at the end of the season. Doesnt say if he retires or joins another team.
