Coming up soon-ish. Temps are (thus far) predicted in the low seventies. Given that we're in a two-week spurt of weather every day between 85 and 105, a trip to Silverstone sounds enticing. If only it weren't (iMHO) such a boring track. At least there's the unpredictability factor. Last 7 races...
Wondering if we'll see a KTM on the podium again at this track. No dog in the game manufacturer-wise, but I definitely don't want Ducati to do to MotoGp what it once did to WSBK. I'd be happy to see them finally get another championship. God knows they've put in the work. Tho, I haven't given up...
Yowsuh! Czech republic GP tomorrow. Two - count 'em - two Frenchies in the first two spots. I have really liked Zarco for a long time. Hoping like hell he gets to prove his naysayers wrong. Good to see Morbid in 3rd Last year 2nd and 3rd on the podium were Ducatis. Won't see either Marquez up...
Coming up and not a minute too soon. Unfortunately - no Lorenzo, who will miss Austria too and is expected to return at Silverstone. What a ....-show for him. How does a guy come back from a season like this?
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...
The break is finally over. I hope you all enjoyed yourselves.

I think the yamaha pattern on race weekend is one will ride well, one will have issues. That will continue until they figure out the right setting to make sure only Mav has .... weekends. Marc or...
Found this editorial online that outlines the possibililty that in years ahead we will see the imposition of restrictions on the sponsoring of the sport by Energy Drink Companies.
The points raised in it are quite valid and just an Oz perspective, there are already bans on some of the 'soft...
This place is turning into a morgue for GP discussion activity.
It's Thursday and we have a race this weekend and no topic till now.

Guess we'll see 4 Monster bikes this season.
Maybe the livery will be something simmilar to AMA Yamaha:
