Yep, MM is apparently coming back at Aragon so he can help Honda build a 2021 bike specifically for him.
Espargero will obviously fully approve it #?¥₩#?
That will be the ****ers garage next year, no way those 2 will get on.
Hope rumours are right then as zarco is my favourite rider, be nice to see him and Miller going at it.
Mrs loves quateraro which is weird as his chest is like the Mojave desert whereas mine is like the new Forrest.....

I'm a miller fan Jon, ex motocrosser, exiting to watch, deserves that ride 
Zarco, that should be interesting?
Exiting times, who's gonna be where. One thing for sure we know where MM will be

Hi Chris
Hope you're well
Biggest news im waiting confirmation on is that zarco has the factory ride alongside Miller at Ducati, press down here is selling it, but they are notoriously full of poo

Interesting one Jon, guess he still has race pace 
KTM seem to have a very good bike there and I think they could be a serious challenge to Honda if they can get the right rider. Is that Dovi, mmmmm?
I was watching WSB yesterday and they were talking about a conversation with a team manger who had been around the block a bit. When they choose a rider they are looking for the next talent who will beat and be the next MM. Otherwise they could just sign any rider. Makes you think, if KTM are that serious, they have to be, is Dovi their man at 31?
Mir is starting to look good and I can’t see any reason why he would leave Suzuki. FQ has signed, FM?
Not sure, it will be interesting to see who really goes where

Hi All
Just seen the talks between Dovi and KTM have broken down over money.
I think his manager is pricing him out of a ride, be a shame if he's not on the grid next year, but what options does he have now for next year???
Aprillia?, Suzuki?
Seems the Dovi story doesn't end well
At least Rossi signed the 2 years yesterday

Forgot to add before, Vinales said he had 4 warnings of the brakes failing before the off, personally I think he should have come in or been made to by the race director. Imagine carrying on knowing and something awful happens :-(

Cost Mir the race did that
I’m guessing Viñales just plain **** himself. Bike over his head last week, jumping off the bike this week, brake failure. Not looking good for Yamaha either, engines, not enough top end, no wonder they are struggling. When the non factory bikes are doing well they should know they have problems
And once again, especially WSB and BSB the Ducati V4 is just like cheating for me, so high revving and the straight line speed just blows everything else out of the water although the new Honda seems to be catching up, seems to be

Yeah, felt for Mir but you have to ask why they didn't have a tyre in reserve JIC. I know races aren't often split but even so, it certainly helped Miller in part 2.
I'm still trying to decide if Vinales went over to his bike and put his head in his hands out of a, shock, or B frustration the bike wasn't still o.k...inspite of being on fire at the time 
Agree with the blind crests, odd how these things aren't already in place in this day and age.

Well, just watched the highlights from yesterday. Brake failure and jumping off a bike at 130mph must be a hell of a shocker. Last time I saw that it was Eugene Laverty in WSP 
Disappointed for Mir he deserved that win
Air bags in place too. Did a proper job on saving Viñales bike until it set on fire

I’m guessing that’s the next area for review, straights that have the potential to run over corners if the worst happens. Thought the same afterwards, thought they would have some kind of protection. Quite a dangerous track
The blind summits are another one too as the Moto 2 crash. Maybe a flashing sign above the track on blind summits or a least a flag man on them?

all the vr46 babies were calling for Masia to be banned for the season for dumping the oil on the track,(absolute stupid crap)
Nuff said then, unbelievable, who would have thought, oil on a motorcycle racing track

Not been on for a while.
The crash last week, why aren't there airbags/tires across those long run offs before right hand corners, even half way along them would minimise the risk. Unsighting the corner slightly would be a small price to pay.
Really enjoying the races at the mo, so glad that MM is side lined for a while, had become a tad stale for me.
Vinales jumping off

Hi Chris,
I think this weekend kinda proved the point I was trying to make, all the vr46 babies were calling for Masia to be banned for the season for dumping the oil on the track,(absolute stupid crap), Martin loses a moto2 win by going green by inches thus promoting a vr46 baby for the win and polis espargero is at least 4ft of track on the final lap and gets no penalty at all?????
And clicky, whoever had the great idea to put the 2 most despised riders in the same garage is an absolute advertising genius, polis and rat boy 2021, I'm gonna love it........
Too much politics, let's race!!

rossi is taking fabios seat at pertronas,fabio taking rossis seat at factory Yamaha with vinales. as for zarcos pit lane start, thats down to dorna. the Spanish Moto gp mafia..both espargaro brothers get away scot free from their pissing about.alex holding up Petrucci on the racing line looking for a tow. pol again whinging about zarco taking him out, while yet he went wide then came back on the racing line without looking..pol espagaros actions after last weeks red flag was terrible. moaning about race being stopped while he was in the lead.. I really don't know why hrc Honda gave him a factory seat next to mm93 next season..the bloke is a nightmare..
