And ill just throw this out there...Rossi was top Yamaha....again.

In 9th???

Still top Yamaha.

Mad

Still top Yamaha.

Looks like Rossi is part of the historic wrecking crew of 4 yammies up front. He keeps filling up those stats. Home track advantage. Probably Rossi podiums.

Yep, and with his experience, especially at this circuit, not only will he probably get his 200th podium but he's a strong chance for his first race win since 2017.
I wouldn't bet against him.

I said if all riders were fit Rossi would never win another race but with Marquez out there will never be a better chance for Rossi over the next two weeks.

Still top Yamaha

Mind you, as I said above Rossi's a great chance for the win in the next 2 weeks...

MM's brother found something. Q has a hand problem? Probably Franco, though Mav is hit and miss like Qman. Dovi's championship is slipping. Can't ignore that suz dream team. Without MM to chase it's a potpourri of a podium. Rossi woke up in slow mode = 7th in the end... goof oh him, goof on me.

Shhbhhhhbb.... I haven't watched the race yet. Gotta walk the dawgs and straighten up a few things first.

Mad

Dovi wins championship by attrition.

***SPOILER ALERT. DON'T READ THIS MAD IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE RACE***

No one can take charge of this Championship.
Get Marquez back in there.
He can still win the whole thing!

No Yamaha lockout.
Not even close.
Yamaha, Ducati, Suzuki take the podium.
Only one of the Yamaha riders showed the expected potential.
And the two factory riders even not on the podium.
Congrats to Morbidelli for his first race win. Solid.
What the hell is happening to Vinales on Sundays? Again finished no where.
And sorry Mad for when you do read this but aaawww, no 200th podium for Rossi.
Had his heart ripped out on the last lap by Mir with an unbelievable move.
But it will probably come in the next race.
Bagnaia Bagnaia Bagnaia!
What an effort from an injured rider and great first podium.
Mir rode an unbelievable race as well for a memorable 3rd.
And Quartararo?
What a time to have two crashes in one race when you are one of the favourites to win!
But thats racing.

Overall great entertainment for yet another MotoGP race.

Again, get Marquez back in there!

Rossi still 2nd best Yamaha. Vinales is a disaster on race day. It seems he's super fast
on days when it doesn't matter. So, which one deserves the respect ?
Really happy for Frankie. It's been just a matter of time. Q- man made a major unforced error. He's avoided doing stupid stuff so far.A great day for the VR46 academy and the,Sky46 team. Except for the Boss.

Mad

Rossi does it right. Guy is going to fill up the podium besides the wins. Moto2 has another bag full of sky boys and here comes an era of the Italians dominating gp. Zarco was a wild man coming out of that one corner. That was impressive. I have yet to see a triumph engine blow up. Rossi's what, his stepbrother broke the track record, and that says the engine is there, just needs bigger balls. As long as Dovi keeps it upright and stays out of trouble, he might take the big one home. Home track so some skyboy wins it. Hard to pick these days. It's anyone's race.

Home advantage and counting: 2nd place for a skyboy in moto3. Last few turns... one of the best races for the year. The leading class watching 'musical chairs' you won't see in gp or moto2.

Rare mistake from Rossi costs him dear.
But top job from Vinales and from Mir.
Espargaro seems a solid option for Honda next year.
And after the penalty, Quartararo is definitely shedding a tear.
No doubt the next race will be amazing, have no fear...

Really gutted for Pecco. He had that race in the bag. Pol gifted 3rd with Quatararo penalty. I'm super impressed with Mir's smooth, close passes. He's the real deal.

Mad

Come on Hub!
Don't be shy (or bias).

Name the Yam rider who finished in the top 3.
Now name your Yam old man's finishing position and all the Yam's who finished in front of him.

Qualified 3rd as of Sept 2020... old man lands on the front row from a quote way back in February... months older and the 'don't count out the old man' is still in 1st place.

And, and, Rossi gets to ride the bike he's riding today is what he'll ride next year... Hand-me-downs to satellite teams. And, and, Rossi cha-chings on the new color schemes on the clothing line.

Man, is that all he's getting?

He's strong Hub. There is no doubt.
But don't jump off into the bathroom with your VR46 picture and hand gel just yet.
Lets wait for the race.

But I wouldn't be betting against him...

Chainsaw Binder will chip away at the grid.
Qman leaves the group.
Rins might Binder up,
Handjob ends up 5th.

Hub, Rossi's deal with Petronas includes a 2021 factory Yamaha along with full support. He's not
going to be riding a satellite bike.

Mad

Thanks Mad. I thought this was like Crutch and the japanese rider with MM's old shit from last year. You know, I dragged and dropped onto Rossi, had the hand jell and they just shot his ass and not his lines... so ass I was saying that Rossi never crashes, I said I better leave or I might have just jinxed the guy... sure enough.

But don't jump off into the bathroom with your VR46 picture and hand gel just yet.

As advised, no bathroom visit for you Hub!

That's two uncharacteristic unforced errors in two races by your boy all but ending his Championship campaign.
So sad...

With no Marquez about there are some brilliant stories coming through like Mir.
He really does deserves a win!
And how good are those Suzuki's going???

Who know's what Vinales will bring to each race day?
And Morbidelli is killing it plus smashing his idol.
A true Championship contender with Quartararo and Mir this year...

I don't know if you guys saw MM visiting the Repsol garage. His right arm is super skinny, especially the shoulder. Massive muscle loss. If you were thinking he could still come back and win this title, you may want to rethink that.

Mad

What ever Marquez did to his shoulder, he did it properly.
I don't recall a rider being off so long with a shoulder injury.

Or is there more to the story that we don't know?

Marquez.." Falling is allowed, getting up is an obligation. "

Did you read where he actually bent the plate that had been reinforcing a previous break ?
