Sure, even aero probably doesn’t match MM’s ability in low grip conditions.

There would of been a lot of Ducati staff having a good look at MM's data overnight
The ways that MM could loose the GP;
1. Someone takes him out, but it would have to be early on
2. MM takes himself out
3. Mechanical
4. Wrong tyre choice or an underinflated penalty
What isn't on that list is someone being faster than MM cos that ain't gunna happen
BTY I'm a lover of the underdog so this year I want to see MM take a victory but next year I'll want to see MM be beaten, in particular by a rider who has never taken a race win such as Acosta

I agree with everything here. Including preferring the underdog, meaning MM93 in this race and Bagnaia next year. Perhaps it has a genetic component.
MotoGP, Di Giannatonio: "Marquez? If I knew how he makes a difference, I would too."
MotoGP: "Physically it was the worst day since the injury. My Sprint was a jungle, but in the GP I can do well," Bezzecchi: "In the first corner I was 7th, but my lowering device didn't unlock."

Bezzechi’s Ride Shyte Device failed to disengage at the start as well.

And in the warm-up, problems for Bagnaia with his holeshot (?) device. Something that interfered with his practice start.
If riders have good or bad starts, I want it to be down to rider skills. Not technology working or not.

For the relatively numerous Australians on here, good to see Joel Kelso at a pointy-end second place in Moto3 qualifying. The top 6 seems to be the usual suspects and I predict a close race, won by Alonso

I don't speak Spanish so I've been tuning out. What happened?
The 3 english speaking reporters where kinda bullying Gigi trying to get him to admitt the ride height devices are dangerous.

Thanks. I didn't see or hear that bit at all. I may have been off having a 'ride height device' at the time.
EDIT: I'm confused. It seems that I saw the pre-penalty Moto3 qualifying results. And, the actual grid is very different.
EDIT: Moto3 riders need to learn - fight, but don't give David Alonso a 1.5s lead on the first lap. My prediction of a close race is looking unlikely before even one lap is over.

Furusato seems to have quite some speed here. This looks more promising.

Given what I'm seeing, I don't understand how there are no track limits warnings so far.

I'm hesitating to say that Veijer now has the speed.
EDIT: What happened to Ortola? EDIT: 8th, keeping Holgado company.
