Ya, the Ducs are really the quickest bike overall. Just FQ talent able to put himself at the top of the standings compensating for the bike deficiencies.

Probably if Rossi on this year's Ducati he would be winning a few races as well, just need rider sit on top then let the super engine, traction control, launch control, holeshot automatically do its work.

I reckon another few years Ducati would have auto cruise for motogp, rider just need to sit on the bike to fulfill the rule... wait, isn't yamaha testing the motogp robot rider versus Rossi before?

Btw Astro has been showing the MotoGP race (and only MotoGP) on Arena 2 for a few rounds now. So if you want better image quality than SPOTV and no 2 minute delay, watch on Arena 2

Super wet race. Wow

Good race, perfect outcome! This race shows no matter how good FQ is dragging that M1 in the dry, he will never be considered as one of the great with such poor wet performance! Even JL was miles better than him in the wet, nevermind VR or MM! FQ really needs to up his game big time in the wet, it's his obvious weakness by far.

its just the yamaha weakness. you can read comments from other riders too regarding that.
the ducs are really using all their ride to plotek bagnaia

Well Morbideli finished 12 secrs and 4 spots ahead of FQ! FQ only finished 2secs ahead of Crutchlow. That shows how slow he is.

Edit: FQ was even let pass by Crutchlow, otherwuse he would have stayed behind him, that's how slow FQ was.

Despite the delay, pretty good race. What a shame for Mooney VR46. FQ said LM10 was the guy to watch out for coz he was super fast. Too bad he crashed.Come to think of it, I don't recall ever seeing him crash in any of the races.

I new FQ wasn't that good in the rain but this was way off what I expected. Silver lining is that it's good for the championship, AE41 still has a chance. Hopefully Sepang has some rain too to make it a close final round.

Haha grinding end for FQ 2 try stay top till the end.

Is Sepang last? Haha or Valencia last?

Sepang race will most likely be a wet race.

Sepang penultimate race.

Ya but hopefully not torrential.

Looking at the last 4 or 5 races
I have a strong feeling that Bagnaia will over take FQ and take the championship. Provided Bagnaia no mistakes. Lol.

Like MM93 said, he bets on FB63's bike. I am only worried that others will make mistakes and take FB63 down. The other Ducatis are coming on strong too especially Miller.

That's correct
Miller had been top form in the last 2 races.

But note also that FB himself is also not that strong in the wet. Thailand he was decent but spared by JZ to get podium and in Indonesia he was slow too.

Haha you speak as though the repeat of sepang 2015 is coming

Another great talent gone.

This was the reason for the delay in WSBK race 1.

Jorge Martin becoming a sore loser for not getting the factory ride along Pecco next year.
