Sorry, I think I was mistaken, record is 354+ kph if remember correctly, while Dovi achieved 352+kph.

6 races on and Rossi yet to be a winner unfortunately. This is a tough time for him.

Nah, i think Dovi hit 343 during the race. Still that's bloody crazy on 2 wheels. Lol

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.

just realized that catalunya is this weekend.

no need to wait for 2 weeks gap.

F1 Canadian GP also this weekend, next week WSBK in Misano. Beginning this week non-stop racing in the weekends some races doublestacked, probably can't catch em all.

If VR did not DNF in France and not having health issue this race and finish ahead of MV, then he can be still top, but those are too many "IFs". If he did not DNF in France though he will at least guarantee to still be 2nd.

Yes, next weekend got many races, MotoGP, F1, and if not mistaken Australia Supercars. Those 3 I will definitely watch but WSBK I don't care anymore. Supercars will be afternoon, MotoGP evening, then F1 Canada will just record then watch later.

No, he managed to hit 352+ during the race, must be by drafting someone.

Haha you're right. Really salute these speed demons. Riding at such speeds. Pirro went even faster during the race. 354. Fuh!

they did that often during FP and Qualifying.

summore ducati bikes got top end power, though suffer during corners.

long straight track like mugello favors them.

btw, following luis salom death, the track layout has been modified a bit for motogp.

Yes, and they all hate it!

Why cant they just use the same dam F1 layout

Because the run off area in F1 chicane is too short for bikes as it's close to the barriers, hence they moved it back a bit.

now watching
