<{POST_SNAPBACK}><div class='quotemain'>Hmm, yeah it's a good point, but besides Catalunya I haven't really seen in MotoGP this season such CLOSE racing & passing as with BSB, & with BSB you never quite know 'til the very end who will win, whereas lately in MotoGP is has become quite apparent fairly early on who will win.
Erm, I'd go as far as saying that at the minute, MotoGP is easier to predict than BSB, although I still feel & will always feel that MotoGP is the best.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}><div class='quotemain'>This is the biggest bunch of ........ I've seen you write so far.
So what if the ....... practice times are within 1 sec of each other? How many times within the race have the top 5 been within a few seconds of each other? Not very much.
Just because the times are close doesn't mean it's competitive, well it does, but it doesn't translate to close racing.
The thing with motogp is that its so competative, so close, and at such a hugh level that it all the riders are riding to the absoloute maximum all the time. This makes passing hard because it is rare for a rider to have a significant advantage over another. Although the races may be less thrilling than the BSB battles for the lead, they are more competative. The difference in level of rider and machinary in BSB is huge between the top and the edge of the points.
