This made hairs on the back of my neck stand up when I watched live on Sunday, Rossi you're very lucky lad.

Zarco starting from pit lane this weekend. Deemed to be a naughty boy.
Â
Anybody see the moto 3 race? I was a gibbering mess at the end.

Yeah, I think I only breathed twice during the whole race ð¤£
Just settling in to watch the whole thing over again, morning warm ups just finishing.

Another thriller... 200kmh+ brake failure.. :hide:
Â
Anybody keen to pick a championship winner at this stage? :rotflmmfao:

Quite a stylish disembarkation though.
Â
Dunno about picking a winner, Cal Cruchlow ? Why not.Â
 but it could well be a KTM rider.Moto Gp Crash - marko67 - 25-08-2020
I was impressed with the fortitude and elegance of the dismount, too. 8 / 10. I've only ever attempted the big step off on a wintry moor.
Â
Dovi seems to be the most consistent but I've never seen MotoGP be such a lottery.
Â
I would like to see Suzuki at the pointy end more often, Rins meerkat riding style cracks me up and Mir is hitting his straps.
Â
The Pol and Brad show is pretty epic.

Suzuki have made mahoosive gains, as have KTM. Yamaha haven't.
I enjoyed watching Jack Miller, very smooth and stylish when braking and entering the turns, none of the leg dangling there. Certainly seems a lot more entertaining with Marquez throwing a sick note in.

Think Dorna should pay him to stay away, mind you this is the first real injury he has had so just may slow him down a bit.

It's interesting to watch the variety of winners. Some new talent coming in - e.g. Binder. Strange that big manufacturers like Yamaha and Honda making a pigs ear of things. Just hope that there aren't any more of these scary accidents.
Â
I still prefer watching WSB though. I know it tends to be the Jonathan Rae show more often than not these days but there's a lot fewer under nourished midgets than in Moto GP - some of them look like they should be in hospital rather than riding a 200mph bike, Rossi is a prime example. Plus there are more races in a weekend in WSB which = more enjoyment for me.
Moto Gp Crash - alanfavell - 27-08-2020
For your entertainment...........
:cake eating:
Rossi is 5' 11"Â = one of the world's taller midgets
  (he and many others do look underfed esp. compared to me). Bradley Smith is a similar height. to Rossi (a tad taller)
Â
Cal Crutchlow tips in at 5' 7"Â
Piano teeth is 5' 6"
Dani Pedrosa is 5' 2"
Â
Leon Haslam 5' 5"
Jonathan Rea 5' 10"
Â
Meanwhile in the 3:30 at Kempton................
Willie Carson 5' blot
Lester Piggott 5' 8"
Â
Stop giving them watches n cars for winning and use the cake handicap system instead.
