Personally I hope for no rain but it sure throws the cat amongst the pigeons. Agreed on the not many, but how many of those has Jack won aside from the one 5 years ago? It will be interesting to see the rest of the year. I think Pecco is on the up, how that will affect Jack will be something to follow. I like Jack, I think he is a bit overrated though. Good for a few race wins but don't see him as a championship winner. sawystertrance 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see the Moto3 guys were falling like flies!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wannabe Posted May 15, 2021 Share What interesting Moto GP qualifying session. With a Honda lockout of the front row with 20 seconds to go, to no Honda on the front row. Vinales came from nowhere to qualify on the front row. Gonna be an interesting race tomorrow. CAN'T WAIT..... (MM93 might just surprise them) SwissVan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Knoetze (sk27) Posted May 17, 2021 Share And Jack wins, so what do I know. Will see how he goes for the rest of the year but Mugello next so probably a guaranteed Ducati. Glad to see Marc getting more confident, still a way off his best though. sawystertrance 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sawystertrance Posted May 17, 2021 Share What's really interesting is how terrified (or is it just over-cautious) Binder seems to be of rain. At the first signs of raindrops, his times plummet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the first signs of raindrops, his times plummet. He also caught the rain into T3 while most were further around. Perhaps why his "wet" lap was so slow. He stayed up, many others (including his teammate) didn't. He did well for the absolute wreck of a weekend he had. I was pleased with the Tech3 results. Iker getting Mav on the last few turns was brilliant!! I do wish the Michelin wets acted more like wets, and forced a second round of bike swapping. Those wets performed too well on a dry track, would have made for a more interesting end. Edited May 17, 2021 by Steven Knoetze (sk27) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ignore the pommie commentators though, according to them is was pretty much all about him being on the quicker bike. SO fought for those wins!!!!!

Steven Knoetze (sk27) Posted May 28, 2021 Share " Marc Marquez says it is 'admirable' that Valentino Rossi still wants to race in MotoGP, but 'different mentalities' between the sport's biggest stars means the Spaniard will call it a day when victory is no longer possible.

Jbr Posted May 28, 2021 Share Bit of dick on this one, I've always liked the way MM manages to get under the skin of his rivals, including when it's with my boy Fabio. But what's the point of this ? It's not like Rossi is his rival anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was asked: Quote Asked about Rossi's desire to continue racing, Marquez told SkySport.it: "His approach is admirable, after all he has achieved, he still wants to race but we have different mentalities. When I can no longer win and fight for the wins, I will stop. I am not made to race for 15th position". Steven Knoetze (sk27) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
