Scary incident between Mav and Bezz. I don't understand why reddit are defending Marco, he totally overcooked that, even if the aero tends to suck you in, the riders are experienced enough to account for it.

Peerless ride by Jorge and shame about Marc's botched first corner, they're both a step above the rest here. Bagnaia with one of his most forgettable races of the season, and saved by Bezzechi, I have no doubt Maverick would've overtaken him eventually.

Expected more from a few guys (Binder, Rins) who disappointed again.

Reddit tends to be a moron brigade more often than not I find which is why I do not post there ever.
 
Everyone knows you can get sucked into the slipstream and has known this for the past number of seasons. Bezzecchi should have braked earlier instead of cutting over for a divebomb attempt on a position he was never getting back. Entirely his fault and should get a penalty for this one. If everyone else knows to brake accordingly once in the slipstream he has no excuse for it. Yes the aero blows but these guys know the effect it has on the slipstream. Ride accordingly.
 
I recall at a race a few years ago when the rider taken out raced over to abuse the S out of the rider who had taken him out then realised that rider was hurt and switched to assisting him

Just watched the sprint. Jörg was flawless but I wouldn't be surprised if he finds a way to botch it tomorrow.

Marc looks like the man to beat tomorrow. Frantisek was quite far off the pace but I'm sure his team will figure stuff out overnight. Nice to see no team orders for Enea.

The Vinales/Bezzecchi crash looked scary as ..... Yes the aero played a part in that but they've been running the aero for quite some time. Riders should know that.
 
I'm on the fence on the Vinales Bezzecchi crash. Bezzecchi could have backed off sooner, for sure. On the other hand, Vinales claims he didn't close the line, but to me it looks like he does. He passes Bezzecchi late on the straight, then immediately goes to the outside edge of the track on the brakes. Would be nice to see an onboard from Bezzecchi. In any case, Vinales was in front and had the line, but as usual I think he has more blame in the situation than he's willing to admit.
