I don't know if any of you were watching the video of Marc cheering on Alex at Aragon. He had
to use his left hand to raise his right arm. I am starting to suspect serious nerve damage.
He was able to come back from his eye problems, maybe he can come back from this. Similar injuries
have ended several careers.

Where did you see this??

mop, try this website. Ah, old news but it's burnt valves. Why run faulty valves when there is a safety issue, let alone sit out the rest of the year? Stupid old farts.

Did anyone see a single puff of smoke come out of Mir's bike, was it? One cylinder had to be hurt on that 360 times 2 = 4-strokes. "That's All Strokes!" Someone might DNF and blow the championship?

***SPOILER ALERT IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE RACE***

I follow Marc Marquez.
I hope he wins many more World Championships.

But there is no doubt this amazing season was so much the better without him.

Suzuki Suzuki Suzuki.
What a result!

And congrats to World Champion Joan Mir!

The highs (Mir) and lows (Quartararo) of MotoGP.

I know there is still one race to go but amazing entertainment and a super successful season considering the external challenges presented this year so congrats also to the organisers.

I don't believe 2021 can match this one, especially if Marquez returns.
But then with MotoGP who knows...

The Maniac... what an idiot... Mooooo, it's something I ate like meat. Sure you did.

Bring on the young guns

First off, a massive congratulations to Mir and Suzuki. Yamaha should look at what they were able to do with a smaller budget. And I have an observation about Mir. I could be wrong, but I don't think I've ever seen him make a pass that wasn't clean. No barging or standing people up. Some of his passes are just beautiful. He seems like a very likeable guy too. I also like Davide Brivio.
I, for one, am not convinced MM will return, and if he does, he may be a shadow of his former self. I think Honda is hiding a much more serious injury than we've been told.
I once again, predict 2021 will be Rossi's Goodbye Year. Since his return from Covid, it almost looks like his fire has gone out. Rumors have Marini on the Avintia Ducati in SKY VR46 colors next year, with Rossi taking over the team in 2022.
Will be interesting to see how Morbidelli does on a current bike. I think this season he was lucky to be on the,2019 bike. Either way, he just earned a huge pay increase.
Clutchblow will now be destroying Yamahas as test rider. I kid, he's a good development rider.
Oh, another big raise for Dani Pedrosa. If his input is responsible for KTMs change of fortune, he's a genius.
Not sure what happened to Quatararo. Pressure ? Bike problems ? Hanging out with Vinales too much???
Anyway, it's been a great season. Don't want it to end.

Finely crafted, aged, smooth going down, from the high pastures of the Italian wine country, enjoy a bottle of Rossi with your next TV treat watching MotoGP.

We recommend Premadonna Pinot Noir

Q1 and 2 are a race in itself. Home track advantage for Oli. Roberts to Ape... Rumor has to be true. Man, that duc blew the parts out of itself. Both motos up for grabs and so is constructors. Going to be a nail biter and the season is over.

Battle of the tail end... that's a hard one. Rabat or Rossi?

At the risk of sounding like Yannih, maybe it's time to put a fork in Rossi. He can wave goodbye to everyone next year ( if they allow any fans) and transition to his new career as owner of the Avintia Ducati squad

Mad

Whoa whoa whoa!

Whats going on here?

I have to admit I'm a bit concerned!
Mad, what drugs do they have you on???
Are you okay?

maybe it's time to put a fork in Rossi

You're not, um, you're not saying, not sure how to say this, your not saying that maybe, just maybe I might just have been a little bit right about Mr Valentino "God" Rossi???

I might give that dog of yours a year's supply of bones to run into that other knee just to see what else you might divulge about VR46.

Where we at, 10 different winners for the season. Full house for me. Two classes came down to the wire and both boys won their championships. Oilly probably cut his diapers on that track so it was a foregone conclusion for me.

Bye-bye Dovi, Rabat, Crashlow, MM??? New kids on the block so it begins a new era.
KTM said they wanted to beat the other cough [honda] factories and they did.
Duc was too stubborn not to listen to Dovi, but rather, watch jagged lines on a monitor... blew the championship.
Honda needs another MM or it's wait your turn slotting-in a podium or two.
Suz took it all. A fluke, right?
Yammie group? What a fucking mess bringing out corporate to straighten out what? Open the tool drawers and hand out the seppukus.

Well, I will forever be a Rossi fan but I am also a realist. He's been sort of crap this year,especially after coming back from Covid. He used to be a rider who could find a way to win even when the bike wasn't very good. Doesn't seem that way anymore. Either that or the M1 is truly horrible. But, at the same time, I'd dump Vinales. He has wayyyy to many races where he charges straight to the back..I'm not sure what's going on inside his head. But you MM fans, I'd cool your heels before getting all fired up about his return. I could be wrong, ( and often am) but I think his injuries are way more serious than Puig has let on.
If he comes back fully recovered then good. My gut feeling is he won't.
And Yannih, please,please don't encourage my idjit Dawg to try to kill me anymore. It truly doesn't only hurt when I laugh.

Unbelievable season.

It definitely did not disappoint.
A great success considering the circumstance and restrictions.

Again, I say it was better that Marquez was not there this season though I hope he returns next year.
Only time will tell.

Congrats Mir.
Congrats Suzuki.
Such a great result.

Goodbye Dovi.
Goodbye Crutchlow.
Goodby Rabat.

And so many other swaps and changes in the paddock for next season.

The only thing I do know for sure when it comes to next year is I will be renewing my MotoGP subscription!

Thanks all and till next season...
