Mav will be in pre-eason from this weekend. The race will be for 2nd. Go Dovi!!!
 
I'm afraid Marquez will fall off (as I usually am, I haven't recovered from his 2014/15 seasons yet), but assuming he doesn't I believe he will win.

I think the race will be decided by one of the teams having a poor weekend handing the win to the others, but hopefully everyone is firing on all cylinders and we'll have a great weekend of racing.

Just remember to watch the race with the commentary turned off.

That Yamaha under Maverick will be quick again now that Machia'vale' is absent - particularly given the recent test data.

At least we'll be spared yet another of those ....... .... Aldo Drudi home race helmets.

I wish this place still went left like in the old days. Love Moto2 pinned through turns 11 and 12 though and bouncing off the limiter as a brake.

Pedrosa is quick here - forget that though, rain forecast for Sunday.

Pedro for the win and Dovi to beat Marquez, just need the trophy to leave Spain for one year at least.
 
Sorry to say Dovi's contender days are over. This round is when Lorenzo finally delivers. Yes yes I know I predicted it in round 1 but Ive got the egg off my face and this time its a lock.

Let's hope you're wearing a full omelette after this weekend :p

I've wagered small coin on a dovi lorenzo podium. Dovi 1st lo lorenzo 2/3.

Out of all the circuits remaining I'd say this will be the hardest one for that to happen at.
Aragon
Motegi
Aussie Isle
Sepang
Valencia

All decent tracks for ducati in the past.
 
Marc crushes the field for P1
Pedro rolls to P2
Jorge shows up to take P3, right ahead of Dovi to take needed points away.

JLo has not showed a consistent race pace all season, why would it suddenly start here?



He as slowly, yes very slowly, been adapting to the Ducati over the season. Up to 5th last race. I believe he kills at this track. Finished on the podium the last 4 or 5 years? Couple wins? (From memory, didn't look up the stats, am sure someone will correct for me.) Just seems like this would be a good place for him to podium, specially with Rossi out.

yes he has slowly gotten better, but he still seems to over ride the bike at times, and his pace on worn tires has never been good. It wouldn't surprise me if he tops the time sheets in practice, or even gets pole, but the race is a different story.
