Yea, I was not happy about this.
I forget if it was the first or second session when Martin came in to get his second bike. He did not look well to me. By that I mean in addition to being frustrated and hot, he just did not look well to me from what little I could see with his helmet on. If there was something, he sure got over it.
It is but you still can't be doing that on a hot track at the highest level. And what did Morbidelli actually do wrong? Was it because he dared to pass precious Aleix, the Aprilia wonder boy?
Same here and I kept thinking about him crashing out with a 3.5 (or whatever it was) second lead. With his struggles this weekend I was on the edge of my seat a bit.
I really admire the fighter in Martin. I just hope he doesn't get into a situation where his emotions get the better of him. He did throw some nice "punches" at Pecco though. It's almost as if he really....really.... wants this.
A week or so before, he was quoted as saying he wasn't really concentrating on the championship. If that was true then, I'd say the way he carved through to the front is good evidence that that's no longer the case.
Pecco is very good on the brakes and seems to be able to pass as well as anyone in this era of aero, ride height and minimum tyre pressure, but true it could be hard. We'll see. Looking forward to it.
Not good to watch at all! Masia running him wide was bad enough but as they were both fighting for the championship it was sort of tolerable but his team mates shenanigans went way over the line. Obviously pre planned between the Leopard riders but was the team party to it? There could and should be consequences!
