Well...I dont think I can support Crutchlow anymore, it's hard to fight for a rider who can't even finish a race. Oh and tear shed for Dovi, the guy just can't catch a break.

Crutchlow did finish the race today buddy.
Someone else didn't... He crashed on the same bit of track as Lorenzo in warmup.
He's even copying Lorenzo's crashes now as well as his setup data [emoji1]

Good on Dani heading right over there, and on the Ducati team for not letting the journalists in.

It's depressing to see how mindlessly bloodthirsty the video journos can be.

Lol oh ya, I was too busy thinking about his crash to remember that he kept going afterwards. Hey these michelins are terrible it's a feat just to finish a race anymore, it's just luck if you make it to the checkered flag (jokes...mostly)

I think it was Dorna's own camera crew. Really cool the Ducati boys restrained them from going in. Good to see Dovi accept Dani's apology and to see D'alligna give Dani a pat to show his respect and gratitude too. Real men after racing.
Wonder if Valentino would accept an apology in the same manner as Dovi?

We really don't need this. Take it elsewhere please.

I was misdirecting my frustration at the Marquez nuthugger. I never like to see a rider go down, but when I see posts like that guy made, I lose my temper.

It seems most everyone in the paddock has a mutual respect for each other. It's just the riders who are the exception.

Calm it down buddy, I'm sure arrab wasn't telling just you, he was telling the Rossi bopper who was saying he wanted two riders to crash whereas you said today's result was good with Rossi out.

Simmer down sunshine, I'm not a Rossi bopper. I was simply fed up with that .....'s anti-Rossi comments and lashed out at him.

I love a good jabbing back and forth about our favorite riders, but people enjoying riders crashing out are a special breed of animal.

three fairly boring races, but still a fun weekend. congrats to all the racers. giving it their all.
I wonder about a few of the newbys here. if they've ever been to a gp live? there's something special about it. being there. i couldn't muster the hate they conjure up after seeing what each and every one of these fellas do with my own eyes in these amazingly intense situations week after week.

Dani taking out Dovi was especially frustrating because I was hoping to see how the Ducati would fare against the Yamahas at COTA ridden by Dovi who I still think is better than Iannone.

Ok sweetheart, I'm fine.
You've got to admit you lost it and came across a bit bopperish.
Time to forget it now, no one was hurt [emoji1]

Thanks to Michelin. Tho - I gotta say, watching Marquez walk away from the field on the twitchy Honda using rubber that confounded some of the best riders in the world - was pretty special. The fun between Vinales and teammate was good to watch.

That's what I was pushing your buttons about.

Unfortunately, Michelin tires/tyres made for a war of attrition. But some, especially Marquez, were great on them. Like he said after his crash in practice, "I have found the limit." It was probably good for Lorenzo to slide around and tumble during warm up, he found the limit. Got to find the limits first to know how far you can go.

And that was fun watching the Zuks. Poor Aleix was being mistaken for Viñales the first part of the race.

Ya. Good time watching the suzukis go at it.

1. COTA should just be officially named Marquez Land going forward.
2. Great job by Iannone keeping the bike on 2 wheels and finishing the race.
3. Michelin needs to fix their .... tires or leave.

Oh ya, it was nice to see some sorely lacking good sportsmanship from Dani, I like him even more after seeing how he apologized to Dovi.

The only time it gets better is when Marquez and Lorenzo crash, and Rossi wins!

Yeah, but the best is when no one crashes, there is kick ... racing and the best bike wins...

The MotoAmerica superbike race after the GP race was the best race of the weekend.

COTA. Probably the coolest looking track but produces the most boring races. Scratch this one and go back to Laguna.

Better yet, scratch Argentina aka the .... show, replace with Laguna and keep COTA. Heck maybe even bring back Indianapolis and have a 3 weekend American mini series.
