Apart from Hayden, did anyone actually pull off a successful overtake this race?


Bradley Smith did on Dovi - but other than that another dull race
 
Meh. Good to see Jorge keeping the championship interesting. But he, like all the Yamaha riders is on engine #4; Honda riders are all only on engine #2 and not many Yamaha tracks left in the season.


Marquez almost got stupid at the end - but good job he held back.


So much attrition = a bunch of CRTs in top 10. Ducatis still suck ....


Rossi cruises to a 4th - whoopee!


Lorenzo's helmet looking more like a Rossi copy.


Had to laugh. Opening lap the wife looking over my shoulder and I'm watching Bautista saying;


Jeez... lets hope he doesn't crash and take out Ros..... and BANG! he crashes. :lol:

Making hay while the sun shines maybe? Did Yamaha turn up the wick a bit to try & get some extra points on the board before starting races from the rear of the grid in the near future?

Thinking that this will be par for the course from here on in....

We will see. There was talk Jorge was in engine trouble last year. I gather also they have used rather than exploded the engines.


 


Honda very definitely won't run out of engines though.
 
JLo - Super job from start to end


Pedrosa - Champions ride


MM - patience young one....


Rossi - Heroic ride considering your qualifying position 


Bradl - a much needed finish...


Smith - Fantastic job.....


Dovi - Best Ducati in the world today....


Esparagus - How about Bautista's Honda in 2014?


Edwards - this the closest you've been to the front in years....


Pirro - Excellent job....perhaps you should be full time rider now


 


'Hodor' Hayden - Premature ejumkielation -


Cal - Ooops....Overheated a bit i see...


Bautista - You will be very well in Moto2 next year....


Iannone - Well done to pass the factory boys....and YET.....
 
Congrats to Lorenzo.  Much kudos to him for being nails and managing his tires (or as Kropo would say, waiting for the full tank of gas be not full).  I wonder if the full tank of gas also screwed up Cal's race...and Nicky's.  Oh, come on Kropos, you know I kid.  Speaking of which, I blame Kropo for Cals crash because of the question he asked in post qual.  He seems to have changed the balance of the war of words between Cal and Pol.  


 


Congrats to Pedro for managing the race.  Congrats to Marky for not killing Pedro.  Congrats to Bradley Smith, even though he was gifted several positions, he is riding injured.  Dovi should send Nicky flowers.  Ducati continue to suck, and its clear they are most effected detrimentally from the spec tire.


 


And then there is Alvaro.  Who I think is a contracted assassin for HRC.  The last three crashes in this order: Assen torpedo on Yamaha Lorenzo.  Mugello torpedo on Yamaha Rossi.  Catalunya attempted torpedo on Yamaha Rossi.


 


On a serious note: Big Ups to Lorenzo for making a lifetime memory for one talented young artist.

Your standards seem a bit low for what you consider a "hero".  Ha!


 


Stupid Nicky, he needs to learn from Rossi that cruising around will get you points.


 


Cal wil probably get flowers from the "heroic" Rossi.  Maybe even some chocolate covered strawberries too.
 
Lorenzo- dude is just ........ good.

Pedrophile- hes enjoying seeing the little boy all over his backside

Marquez- like all little boys,blew his load too early

Rosspies- closing in on 46 races without a win. When does mundalito start

Calien- A UFO was sighted in the gravel pit

Bradley- did someone switch his propecia with viagra

Dovi- still beating cal

Hayden- Duc front end giving it to him in the rear end

Opportunista- same exact move a few weeks ago Marquez used to bounce off Lorenzo that was deemed a racing incident. Lets see if all the marquez kropologists defend him
 
What is it with Bautista? That's two races in a row, at least he avoided Rossi this time, but only just.


 


One third of the field didn't finish the race, that's madness!  Was sorry to see Cal slide off and Nicky too.


 


So enjoyed watching Marquez tip toe around behind Pedrosa, anyone else and he'd have gone for it, someone has seriously had words with him and impressed on him not to do that to his own team mate haven't they? 


 


Well done to Bradley Smith for getting a good result and for passing Dovizioso, shame we never got to see the move of course, they were too busy watching the Honda boys vying for second.

I agree with most of what you say but,


MM did not tiptoe and did have a go and failed miserably.


Or were we watching different races? ;)

Okay let me clarify that for you, Marquez was tip toeing as much as he ever does but only because it was Pedrosa, anyone else and he'd never have been that careful, he'd have gone for it and bugger the consequences. Tell me I'm wrong, go on, I dare you :p

FFS did you not see him nearly take himself out by nearly touching Pedro's back wheel?


He was not tiptoeing he was trying his fcuking hardest to DO his team mate!


That is after all the first and foremost person you are out to win!


You are very wrong on this one!


Go on then tell me why your not :p
