This has been two long weeks. What are the odds that any rider will finish the season within 30 points of MM? Can he safely finish the season without a DNF? What’s to become of Dovi the now non-contender? Will Dani have one last flash of brilliance or will he go out with a whimper? What new position will Jarvis be moved to following Rossi’s coup? And of course - your predictions. Let the speculation begin.
 
I think the big horsepower up-hill drags will be a problem for the Yam's. But the wide sweeping, multi-line corners may help the Suzukis.

Marc
Dovi
Rins (I know, Crazy, right?)

J-Lo isn't going anywhere on that track with the Ducati.

Maybe he can run the soft front again so he can fry it out before half distance. Rossi will likely be up there again. Don't see anyone else challenging him unless Vinales happens to have a good day (doubtful).

Weather is supposed to be 86 degrees and partly cloudy so no rain in the forecast at the moment. I'm sure MM will go hard front and medium rear unless he finds something with that soft rear again like has been. Still is interesting he has used to the soft rear the last two races to excellent effect. Dovi may run well here as he is overdue for a decent finish. I'd slate him to finish higher than Lorenzo for this circuit.

Pedrosa will be somewhere in the back doing nothing.

I tested one at a local dealership couple of weeks ago and it is insane right? My old S1000RR felt faster and the power delivery is more linear on a BMW but this thing is just wild!
 
I would think MM will go well here as usual, Ducati should also do well but you can never count out Rossi to be fighting for a podium here either.
 
It's crazy how different my weekends feel without those 40mins of watching the MotoGP race!

My pre-race considerations for Brno:

- Marquez will most definitely do whatever the heck he wants.

- This track fits Lorenzo style, I hope he'll be able to be on his edge for the
whole race.

- The Yamahas could be podium contenders, but IMHO not even close to have a
shot at winning.

- Dovi is not the same guy he was in 2017. I hate to say it but it's facts.
 
PS: I haven't followed the Rossi-Jarvis drama but seems like Lin is still at Yamaha? Or did I miss something?

It is. Though my Repsol has more power (it has a "little" work done to it) it does not have all the electronic gadgets the V4S has. On top of that it is a dead sexy machine.
 
So far the Honda has been solid to spectacular on every track. Until it shows a weakness it’s really hard to pick against Marquez until next week where the Duc will be a solid favorite
MM
Dovi
Vinales
Rossi

There’s no drama, the resident Neanderthal found some no name website and suddenly it was a thing on the forum.

Rossi and Jarvis were riding together today at the VR46 academy.

Will be interesting to see how the engine allotment works out for Yamaha, they were reportedly on their 4th engine at Catalunya which was 3 races ago. Have they used number 5 . Honda was on number 3 at Catalunya .
 
I watched all the BSB and WSB I can along with listening to all the old FEC's I could stand. I'm sitting at the keyboard in full leathers just itching for some racing...I have a problem.
