Hi All

I know the mgmt tow company lines with the mutual consent stances and all the company politics and apologies etc,j but Vinales has gone pretty hard core stupid to basically get sacked from 2 €6mill plus bonuses jobs in 1 week.
I think James Hunt did something along these lines back in the day but I can't remember the facts, it's got to go some to beat this though

FP1 commentary on Friday should be great though, can't wait.....

Rat boy crashes out again! Pushing it too far all the time

Binda, great gamble!

San Marino race will be something special. wouldn't be surprised if the local non ticket holders kick the fence in to watch.

Bit special wasn't it Jon, not been on the edge of my seat for a while. My god, those riders who came in and swapped, how they just carved through those still on slicks! As for Binder... nutter

I was hoping Rossi might place. I couldn't make out if that was his last race, if not and it makes no differences on the last race re placings I'd like to see the other give him a place, would be a nice touch.

Hi Vossy,

I'm smiling like the Cheshire cat, loved it.....

Can't really pick out the best moment as there were so many, but even the Mrs started screaming when ,for those 10 seconds, we thought Rossi was on for his 200th podium.

Epic race

Best

Yes Vinales could be heard riding around in 5th gear hitting the revs for the last 3 laps.
I believe that SRT are losing their main sponsor and will be pulling out their Moto 2 and 3 teams

Hi All

Hoping some of the more knowledgeable guys can help with this one:
Yamaha have withdrawn Vinales from this weekend's race for abusing his bike???

And on another note rumours Petronas are pulling out of all Moto classes??

Yamaha are having a bad couple of weeks

I would imagine the electric market is growing everywhere but I can't see them dominating over petrol in my life time in Asia. I can't remember ever seeing a electric scooter in Thailand, probably are some in the wealthier areas of Bangkok though.

Asia already has a growing electric bike market.

I can't see asian markets going electric for a very long time so I think small cc bikes, scooters/mopeds etc will be fine, and in my heart I hope big cc bikes will get a new lease of life over there, not sure that will happen though.

I'm surprised manufacturers are still putting money into engine development with the future being electric.

Well, what a cracking restart, really enjoyed that one. I didn't watch the practice, where the hell has Martin come from? As for that new but of magicry they've put on the Suzuki it would appear it's more than capable of keeping pace with the Ducs now but better in the corners, will be interesting to see it on a longer straight. Tbh, I was a bit surprised how the Suzi started losing time toward the end I would have thought the Ducs tyres would have given it more trouble in comparison.

The montage to Rossi at the beginning was ab brill 😀
