Yeah good ride by AM. Rins did well to respond and resist. Good win. Shat on the "supercars" at Bathurst from a great height, as expected. ![]() |

This being the age of the internet, when everybody is entitled to their own set of facts, people believing in Q-anon and insisting the earth is flat, I'm going to assume you will hold fast to your beliefs. So let's leave it - and just agree to disagree. | |

In Marc's absence the other Honda riders are getting steadily faster. Why is that. They were nowhere when Marc was on the grid. If Mir is setting himself the goal to lift the title without winning a single race then he is on right track indeed. ![]() Ducati seems plain screwed. Nobody to blame, too, they have done it all by themselves. |

In the event, it was a great feckin' race. Little Alex proving everybody (self included) wrong, is a treat. His change in pace is so dramatic - that one has to wonder if Honda really found something special, or if they're somehow cheating. I doubt the latter, but it has occurred to me. That Honda looked much more stable than it has in years. Loved seeing two Suzukis on the podium. |

The Honda is looking like a much better bike than earlier in the year. I don’t know if that can be put down to any of the current riders, but they can’t have harmed things either. I guess their MotoGP effort might be getting more focus/resources now they are pulling out of F1 (again). | |

Senior Member Joined: Feb 2017 From: Acadiana Posts: 434 Likes: 155 | Your opinion is based on "butt feeling", mine is not opinion, it is based on science. You are right there is low pressure area behind an object which moves thru air and it "pulls back". What you ignore is the fact there is also high pressure area in front of that object. When the bike from behind B approaches the bike in front A the high pressure area from B starts neutralizing the pullback power bike A is experiencing. This high pressure area in front is much smaller than the low pressure area in back, but it is there. There is absolutely no scientific explanation how the bike behind could slow down the bike ahead, unless the rider in the back is Magneto ... ![]() |

I saw actual quotes from Dovi after the early part of the thread, and he didn’t complain about Petrux slowing him down fwiw, just that he deliberately manoeuvred to get a tow 3 separate times, and in Dovi’s view which seems correct to me gained an advantage from Dovi’s superior intrinsic pace which put him on Q2 ahead of Dovi. | |

Excellent ride from the younger Marquez. He does ride with the wheels more inline verses older brother out of shape style. HRC may have a dilemma on their hands if the next rounds produces similar or better results. Marc's tweet @ the end of the race was sweet. . Last edited by evo9; October 18th, 2020 at 11:18 AM. | |

Leave us not drag this out. I don't want to get into a long debate. Nobody is going to change their mind. Positions are stated. People get bored with this kind of thing. Let it be. OK? Last edited by Keshav; October 18th, 2020 at 11:39 AM. | |
