Incredible GP today.

How's this for an opening session. Not a single Duc in the top 10. I know everything will change in FP2, but still a bit surprising. And DB40 isnt stone last, although almost 2.5 sec of big bro.

Don’t need to be nervous. 238/3 is pretty steady.

Great achievement but it feels a bit diluted with NZ and Fiji not competing. They got pretty close to losing a couple matches and I can’t help but imagine that if they made those same mistakes against the other 2 big teams they would get hammered. It just doesn’t feel like the best team we’ve fielded compared to past teams.

Man I love it when old Quinny plays like young Quinny!

Looking at how the spinners are going Linde or Shamzi could have been a good call.

Dwayne Pretorius, Wayne Parnell or George Linde. Tough one but I would probably have gone with Dwayne.

I don't think I'm 100% sure about the decision to drop Jansen in favour of Magala. Probably trying to take the pace off which seemed to be effective in the previous match. If it comes off I will gladly swallow my words.

Petruxxxx just won the 5th stage of the Dakar after a technical in the second stage. Ross Branch doing well sitting 7th in GC motos.

They got it wrong on Lap 1 too.

I don’t think I’ve seen him that aggressive all year. Those 2 laps gave RB a big advantage.

Checco you beauty.

Are we gonna see Lando take Hamilton out on the first turn? 😂😂

Moto2 was the race today. Great job by Remi to get back into the points and kudos to Raul for making it absolutely gut wrenching.

How ironic that Foggia takes out Acosta in the last lap and gets a 3 sec penalty. No way he was making that turn.

And so T20 cricket shows again that you can’t predict the finalists in a tournament.

Jinx...Also just bought a guesthouse. Breaking down quite a few walls and building an indoor entertainment area and a 7mx7m double garage. We moving in next week. I feel your pain.

I can't agree with that bold part less. That's like saying Bottas or any other driver in F1 for that matter should take it easy on Max/Lewis in the last few races cause they might upset the outcome of the championship. It's absolutely absurd. These guys have bonus driven careers and every win/loss counts heavily on their pockets. And Daryn isn't the cause of Fogia not having a shot in the last race, he has himself to blame for that. He scored 0 points in 5 of the first 7 races. Also its the only crash this season that Binder has been involved in. Let that sink in. All his penalties were sanctioned during practice or quallies.

I agree he is aggressive. The problem I have is that he has a reputation of being reckless which I don't find a fair comment. Recklessness in definition gives the impression he doesn't care and I don't believe that for a second. Vale had the same reputation, as did Zarco and Simoncelli(RIP), so I hope he shows these naysayers a middle finger next year. Also the same **** doesn't happen in MotoGP cause the guys aren't bunched up like that for the whole race.

What a Moto3 race. That was absolutely insane. Guys were pushing very fine margins and unfortunately DB40 got all of the flack. Here is a link to the most balanced article I could find and it’s MotoGP riders giving their view. Obviously the Italians are livid. https://www.crash.net/motogp/feature/991535/1/racing-incident-ban-super-licence-motogp-riders-discuss-binder-foggia-clash

I was right. The rugby was better.
