Its time for the show down in Texas. But I imagine most of the shots will be taken off the track. #catfightintexas #englishonlyUSA
 
I am looking forward to the tension, as ashamed as I am to admit it, the high-drama does add to the spectacle.
But being clinical about the racing itself, I really cannot see past Marc, to say that Austin is his 'wheelhouse' is an understatement. It wouldn't surprise me if he was fastest in all FPs, got pole, fastest lap and won the race.
The honda seems much stronger early on this season than it has done the last couple of years.

Will the Friday press conference go ahead? And if so will 93 and 46 be there?
 
Of course. But it was in reference to Valencia 2015 when the PC was cancelled. I bet you this time they don't, and Marquez has to face an hour of questions about 'the incident'

This is one time I'm hoping Rossi is gifted a podium. Should be fun to see Uccio sneak in as a trophy boy to serve as protector in chef.

So lets hope it starts something like this.

Stupid Rossi fanboy reporter. So Marc can you tell us a bit about this racing incident.

Marc. Well I thought where has this trackday rider come from, is he still on his 1st lap from last Sunday?

Stupid Rossi fanboy reporter. Thats not a nice thing to say about Mr Rossi.

Marc. Is that who it was, hell when I went past him I though who is this old geriatric rider.
 
No Marquez or Rossi at the press conference. Not surprising to be honest.
 
If Rossi is ever on the podium next to Marc, it will be time to play Podium Escort.

Rated C for .....

Like most people i'm expecting a Marquez masterclass,he'll be even more pumped up to win now,I expect Lorenzo to run around at the back again picking up his fat cheque and Zarco to continue to show the great one how to ride a Yamaha and that he doesn't need the latest spec to make him look average,if there's any wet grass in Texas i'm hoping that Flossi's front Michelin finds it and gives us a repeat performance, so I can again experience the great glee of Argentina.As Crutchlow will have the main man chair for the press conference i fully expect a few barbed comments regarding media turnout again,i'm starting to warm to him, as he tell's it like it is.
 
My prediction for race.

Marquez.
Daylight.
Moonlight.
Daylight again.
Zarco.
Dovi.
Vinales.
Miller.
Rossi.

Would like to see Rins do well, but there are massive straights here that will counter his chassis advantages.
