Iannone somehow managed to get JL to struggled down in 5th place so he could take him out? Iannone has been wild (more than his usual level of wild) this season, something has to be done.

Iannone + Desmo = too much.
Iannone + Suzuki / Lorenzo + Desmo = win, much more balance
Still, what a dumb move. He had all the ....... time and speed to pass JLo

That was one of the corners with the new configuration. The old corner is very long and the riders actually push wide to hit a late apex. There have been a lot of great/questionable passes in that corner through the years. You can't do that .... in the new corner. Dumb mother .......

So your first thought is of me and Jumkie? So glad I occupy such a large space in your head, that you had to reference me lol.
BTW he didn't school MM, MM made a costly mistake that took him out of the last lap and another overtake attempt. MM was pacing him for the final laps but he ...... up in turn 7. .... happens. MM has been nothing short of remarkable this season.

A race with it's fair share of surprises.
Iannone is still stupid (not a big surprise really).
Lorenzo looking like crap and then having insult added to injury.
Marquez - doesn't run away with the race.
Rossi looking like crap - gets to the front and scraps like a kid.
Michelins looked like crap - (okay, not that big a surprise either).
Marquez - keeps his head in front of the home crowd and allows himself to take 2nd
Dani on the podium.
Crutchlow finishes in the top ten.
Rossi and Marquez have a great clean battle
and shake hands.
Such a big difference between the Yam and the Honda in turn one. Rossi looking like he's on rails and MM with the rear and front wheels twitching back and forth like he was on ice. Marquez so impressive.

Hey there. How ya feelin? You were happy when VR's engine blew up, now look at you. Stoner's still sitting on his ... and VR is increasing his win count. Maybe you're not hating hard enough? Want to talk about Sepang 2015? That always seems to cheer ya up!
MM didn't just .... up for no reason. After Rossi passed him again, Rossi put a small gap on MM so he had to push even harder which resulted in a mistake. You're right, .... does happen... but if Rossi didn't have the pace to put that sort of pressure on him, it's not likely MM makes that same mistake. So although MM rode a great race, Rossi rode a better one. Give credit where it's due.

What a race! My personal favorite thusfar. Beautyfull race. Nice battles between Rossi and Marquez.
A little bit to much pushing from Viñales, wearing out his tires to soon.
Iannone another 'maniac' move exactly why i think Dovi is the better choice as a teammate , imagine if they kept Iannone then he wouldve wiped out current and future teammate.
I feel bad for Lorenzo but from a championship perspective things are really evening out wich i dont mind.
Petrucci has a lot of skill to if you ask me.

I really didnt think Marquez was going to hold it so narrow down turn 1. Kudos to him. Did you see (one of the last laps) Marquez almost fell of the bike in the chicane. Great save!

I'll say it over and over, don't worry. Jorge going to Ducati is not just stupid, it's Andre Ionnone stupid. Have you seen something that I haven't that says Jorge can ride a bike in less than optimal conditions?

Actually that Suzuki is the perfect fit for Iannone, I couldn't think of a better bike for him, except maybe, theorically speaking of course, HRC. Slightly underpowered well ridable bike.
It's also the extra Desmo horses that make him look "stupid". They require either a genius or a conservative rider. Not to justify Iannone of course.

Well, first.. Great race. Nice last 3 or 4 laps..
Second, Jorge seems to hit the tires on the head and rides balls out, or totally misses and looks like .....
Third, Iannone is still riding like a mindless .... ..... After torpedoing two ridings in the same year you would think he would get to set in the corner a race with a dunce cap on.. But that will not happen.
Fourth.. Nice to see Rossi and Marky shake hands.
Lastly, glad Rossi won keeping Marky from getting additional points... Limited the damage..
Now two weeks to kill until next race...

Fascinating how Lorenzo can be so strong and then suddenly fall off the pace. Rossi holding up a picture of the Michelin man and celebrating wildly with his team. That Yamaha looks unbeatable when pushed hard. The lunatic is a lunatic.

I said in that topic when it happened that I would have rather'd have seen Rossi finish Mugello because 1) it was great battle in the making and 2) I don't like when he doesn't finish because it gives his fans too many excuses. How surprising, you make .... up that can easily be disproven.
lol hardly schooling Vudu.

It was a very nice save by MM, especially since they showed it in slow motion.
