Hey Steve what channel?
Moto GP and Formula 1 will be on channel 10 free to air all season @ 9:30pm each Sunday night.
Qualifying will be on One HD still the day before.
Beaudy Matty.Knew i could rely on you to come up with the goods ! ;)
Qualifying tonight on One HD at 9.30.
Then Moto 3 and Moto 2 at 7.30pm Sunday on One HD , and Moto GP on 10 at 9.30pm.
Moto GP replay on One HD at 10.30pm Monday.
Well, could be a great race tonight, best news is Nicky Hayden got the Ducati onto the front row qualifying 3rd behind Lorenzo and Pedrosa, then Crutchlow 4th and Stoner in 5th. I really thought Stoner would just ride away with the championship this year but it looks like he could have a battle on his hands. Very early days of course.
Rossi is down in 13th, if only Ducati had listened to Stoner, appreciated what he did for them and kept him on, he'd be winning races if not the championship for them this year (if only, if only) :)
So Stoner battled through in what was quite an interesting race, lots of place changes to start with and it was an interesting fight in the pack for 2nd to 5th most of the race, with a couple of paint-swap incidents but thankfully everyone stayed upright. Glad to see Hayden was competitive but where was Rossi??? Aren't they riding the same bike?? Has the Doc lost his bottle maybe?
Unfortunately I couldn't stay to the finish, the broadcast kept skipping and blacking out for seconds at a time and I lost patience with it and went to bed. Did others get that problem or was it just local to my reception?

According to the studio commentary it was a satellite issue ... same for everybody apparently.

Hayden finished 8th and Rossi 9th although I think there was about 5 seconds between them. Hayden was challenging up the pointy end for the first few laps but couldn't keep the pace up.
I hope Ducati sort out their issues but the fact that it hasn't happened by now doesn't fill me with confidence that they ever will.
I'm guessing that things won't improve with the GP12 bike and Ducati focus on Super stock and then WSBK with the Pana, which should pwn anything put up against it for a couple of seasons at least.
In a recent interview Claudio Domenicali stated that they didn't need racing to keep their profile up but the new Audi ownership could change all that if they want to somehow have their name associated with the GP circuit, so there may be life in the Desmosedici yet.
What I found interesting was Doohan's comments that since Rossi has decided he has 'nothing to prove' and that Nicky is the one 'pushing' the bike ... that Ducati may now be developing the bike with/for Nicky rather than Rossi.
Yes it was great to say Nicky pushing hard up the front , I just hope they can sort out some of the issues
as to why he dropped off the pace in the later part of the race. Tyres maybe ?
On the Panagali found this
Oh hell yeah !!

I happily eat my words, I thought he dominated the race. Also nice psychological move, not bothering to come out for the warm-up.
On again this weekend from Estoril, Portugal.

Mmick
Gee moto2 bloody exciting at the last couple of laps
Anyone who wants to watch what will apparently, sadly, be Casey's 15th last MotoGP should turn to Channel 10 at 9.40 tonight. From Bugatti Circuit, Le Mans.
One HD is showing Moto 2 & 3 from 7pm.
[thumbsup] Good Luck Casey [thumbsup]
MotoGP from Catalunya this weekend, Sat 9.30 pm Practise OneHD
Sun 9.30 pm MotoGP Channel 10.
Moto 2 and 3 are on 7pm to 9.30 Sun OneHD or after the MotoGP on 10.
Should be a great race with Lorenzo and Pedrosa in front of their home crowd and Stoner desperate to win in his last year.
Also noticed some Isle of Man TT on One HD but not too sure if its the actual race or practise or what. check guide for times
Tonight from Silverstone, OneHD has Moto2 live from 8pm and MotoGP on channel 10 from 9.30.
Casey's gotta pull his finger out and start winning if he wants to retain the world title in his last year, so should be a great race.
Rendang? ? ? ?
MotoGP 9:30pm-11:00pm | ONE HD, qualifying Round 7 tonight [popcorn]
Yes Paul, just getting round to it ;D
From Assen this weekend, so everything is 24hrs earlier than usual, (for what reason I never understood) which has caused me to miss a few good races over the years.
so FRIDAY night is MotoGP practice 9.30 on One HD
SATURDAY night is MotoGP race 9.30pm Channel 10, and Moto2 an 3 racing at 7pm OneHD.
I so hope Stoner can get his Honda sorted and start winning,full credit to Lorenzo though, he's riding like a machine.

hmmmm Bridgestone making awesome tyres [laugh]

Looks like someone went at it with a holesaw.
But last race when Stoner mentioned that he was given a dud tyre that was useless after four laps, it was all "there's Stoner moaning again" and Bridgestone announced everybody was happy, one race later Bridgestone are going to conduct a full investigation, what a circus !
This weekend from Sachsenring Sat night 11.15 - 12.30 practice
Sun night 7 Moto 2. followed by Moto GP at 8.30 then Moto 3
All races are showing on One HD.
Beaudy Steve, thanks for keeping us posted mate !Long time no see . hows it all been going?Lets catch up soon dude! [evil] [cheeky] [drink] [Dolph] [thumbsup]
Hi Gino
How are you ? Everything fine here, just this bloody weather keeping me off the road pretty much, could be out and about next Sunday if your interested.
Stoner on pole tonight, next to Spies and Pedrosa with Crutchlow,Lorenzo and Bradl on the 2nd row, should be an exciting race tonight. [popcorn] [clap]
Wow that was exciting!Yep no worries ,Sunday. [Dolph] Gotta take it easy though .Had the Flu for a while!

I just get a flu jab every year now. Yeah ! that was exciting, I enjoyed the battle immensely but I kind of wish Stoner had of taken the soft option and been leading the championship, anyway full credit to him for trying. [bow_down]

When I looked at the program guide on Sat morning it said the race was on channel 10, now it say's it was on One HD this morning, not sure what happened, I couldn't watch it due to work.

I think it has damaged his reputation. Earlier this month he was denying such rumours. Now he has chucked it in, resigned to the fact he couldn't sort the Duc out. I'm sure this is making Casey grin inside his helmet.
http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/101683 (http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/101683)
Casey is truly the big winner in all this. His reputation and legacy are solid now.

I cannot believe Ducati is not going to put another rider on the GP this race... they could at least use the track time for testing.
Seems like Stoner is out for maybe 5 of the remaining 7 races.

We will have to get used to his absence a lot earlier than expected.
Damn. That just sux. Hope he heals fast and avoid permanent damage.
I guess this means he needs to cancel retirement and make a go for it one more time (yes I know unlikely)
How about for his last race we drop him back on the Ducati, to show Rossi how to ride it!

:o you heard that too? My PC must have bugs - I haven't gotten their invitation.
With Hayden and Dovisioso lined up for 2013, and Rossi sucking wind, I think you'd be a welcome addition. you have my full support, and I'm happy to commit that to writing.
Don't even talk to me about Spies. I'm not sure that the good folks at Pramac are thinking clearly taking full factory support from the team and bike that couldn't make Rossi win. I'm not sure when the light is going to come on, and they are going to just redesign that bike from scratch. Something is fatally flawed there.

Yeah, that was a bit unexpected, but pleasant surprise. As was Stoner's run.
I hope its the start of a turn around, he's been plugging away for years without much joy.
Yeah go Westie
The crowd was going crazy for Ant in the last six laps it was absolutely electric , fantastic for him he pushed Mark the whole way.

Would have been more fun if he hadn't taken out Pedrosa ! Looks like the very minor contact tore a rear wheel speed sensor cable which led to the highside seconds later.

Steve can handle it !
This weekend from Sepang in Malaysia, so note the different times. Been thinking about a trip to Malaysia next year if anyones interested ? ? ? Spend a week or so touring on hire bikes then finish up at Sepang for the MotoGP, would be a lot of fun and a bit different to the usual DMF ride. Anyway something to think about over the next year. ps GO LORENZO !

Too tough a penalty on Honda/Marquez you reckon?
I do! Here's why. First time this sort of thing was done. It would be all too easy to miss your pit board the first time round. Perhaps M93 thought that he would wait for one lap longer than Lorenzo, thinking Lorenzo went in on lap 9 (not the actual 10).
In any case, what's done is done and M93 will have to work hard the next few races.
It's certainly going to increase the gate takings and TV ratings.
GK
The penalty suited his track entry exiting from pit lane. Poor timing and across JLs line. Mind you he had a look and saw him. Nearly RIP for both of them. Missing his pit board and getting in late was more technical and that was harsh. Maybe the two infringements were put together.
Trying to understand the race officials is like trying to understand the AFL tribunal.
So how many people after watching that (aren't) going out Monday morning and buying a set of Bridgestone tyres for their motorcycle [cheeky]

Couldn't agree more, the penalty was to harsh for missing his Pit Board but was fair for wandering onto JL's line.
From Motegi, Japan this weekend. Could be interesting all Friday practice cancelled due to bad weather and possibly same again tomorrow. BUT ! they have a plan A, a plan B and even a plan C. Here's hoping for good weather.

well said don [thumbsup]
I tend to agree with Rendang a bit ... and not just because of the aesthetics. For me the bigger issue is the reason for the change.
My understanding of how motorcycles work is something like: petrol, key, starter button. My understanding of design & dynamics is obviously even more limited ... but I remember reading that an old retired Aussie bloke (well he's 28 now) had a lot of faith in Filippo Preziosi's ideas - the problem was having them implemented. I think he was actually talking about that confidence after he had left the fold too, which makes it more genuine for me.
Sadly they are both gone now.
Ducati's proud racing history is not founded in doing what everyone else has been doing for longer.
ducati have gone there own way but to competitive theses days u have to be running the lastest and best technology the old trelis frame is just too stiff , now with the twin spar it should go around corners there engine has all ways be competitive with out having to go to air solidnoid actuated valves so nothing wrong with desmotronic operated valves so thats a big plus the engine provides the sole of a bike u dont look at while riding and to me thats the biggest thing providing grin factor comes first with me thats why i just love twins , but ducati do sit on there lorals too much and are loosing sales and races , take the new monster i read nothing but bad reviews it too small for most rider who have a foot bigger than a size 5 , 2 people dont fit , the engine is still belt driven , and with other naked bike putting another forty horse power and with better elctronics for far less money dont get me wrong i love ducatis all ways will but in todays wold people want bang for buck cheers bazz

Above all else I want them to win to, but I don't think Ducati is in any danger of being stuck in a time warp. Aluminium frames predate the Desmosedici trellis frame anyway and at least they used win on the trellis. But if it doesn't cut it yes it has to go. I was actually thinking more of the carbon fibre nonframe frame. I guess having no frame is fairly cutting edge :) but unfortunately as Betty said they never had the money to develop it. Here is a long but very good article on Ducati's motogp problems, definately worth a read.

Who has been going well so far Steve?
Well it could be a really exciting race, Jorge on pole with a qualifying lap record, Marquez "I have nothing to lose" second and Rossi, inspiring old codgers world wide, make up the front row. I have nothing to lose sounds ominous I hope they all make it across the finish line.
Two Ducs are on the second row.
I hope the weather doesn't play a role in this weekends racing.
Ok, well that wasn't the most exciting race I've ever seen, but there is something quite awe inspiring to see Jorge just reeling off lap after lap of clockwork precision. Puts him equal in the world championship with Rossi.

Will be an interesting run home now! I wonder if we'll see the tension within the team somewhat?
Hope the Ducatis can do a bit better.
Tension ? I was wondering if the fence might go back up !
Perhaps Lorenzo might get into Rossi's face ala Stoner!
Rossi would have to do something to provoke that of course.
How many races left?
Seven races to go, next round is the British on Aug the 30th.

Can opened.
I'm not really into racing but I'll admit to being more of a Stoner fan ... and never really liking Rossi ... it's a personality thing - although he does seem to be less of a dick nowadays.
I actually think it would be terrible for the sport if the old man won. Every race has massive 'Rossi Only' sections in the crowd. 'Fans' that would probably walk away with the GOAT (self-proclaimed or not) when he leaves. Another title would only further convince people they will never see any better so what's the point.
No doubt the bloke can ride ... but that doesn't make him unique. His longevity is a point of difference ... but relatively speaking he has had a pretty easy ride.
Agreed on the easy ride/run.
He had the might of Michelin making custom tyres for specific tracks and having them flown in overnight. Gave him a heck of an edge over the competition.
RIP Warren Willing.
Passed away after a battle with cancer. Watched him race many times at Bathurst,Oran Park,Amaroo before he began his international career as a racer then engineer.

Hey Carlos!
It's usually us Southern Hemispherians who need to lose sleep, so I guess the MotoGP paddock needs to share the love around somehow!! Lol!
How's the leg?

Should be well worth it though.

Will be a good race...
Interesting to see how Miller goes.. appears to be some improvements...

If Moto 3 is anything to go by . . .
Moto 2 - 11 laps to go!
Wow, that was one of the best races I have ever seen ! What a move by Iannone, I let myself dream of a Ducati victory for a few seconds.
I love it when I hear the commentators say things like "That Ducati is a rocketship" and "The power of that Ducati just blitzes them down the straight".
And it closes up the championship a few points, but I reckon Rossi will get it in the end.
Agreed! It was a cracker of a race! ðŸ'ðŸ»ðŸ'ðŸ»
Iannone rode the wheels off the Ducati! It's straight line speed was simply awesome.
Great that Ducati is moving in the right direction.
I'd prefer Lorenzo to take the championship, but reckon that save a crash or DNF from Rossi, he'll get it.
Best. Race. Ever.
Someone counted and it was FIFTY TWO passes among the top 4. Brought a tear to my eye [clap]
52? Really? That's incredible!
What a race! Ducati 3rd, but could have almost been 1st!
Malaysian MotoGP, note the time, lock it in ! Channel ONE, Sunday 5.30 pm.
Plenty of pre-race jousting, jostling and positioning going on.

Pedrosa on Pole ? ? ? MM 2nd, Rossi ahead of Lorenzo 3rd, Lorenzo 4th then Cruchlow, Iannone and Dovi ! Will be crowded at the first corner !
Should be a great race !
In Qualifying Marc leads out Jorge and Andrea leads out Vale.

Wow, Rossi lost the plot :o . I never usually watch the post race press conference, but this one should be interesting.
Brain snap from Rossi. Could quite easily cost him the championship.
Rendang, who's your tip for the championship?
It'll be a nail biter!
Last race this weekend Valencia. Obviously JL has got to be the favourite to take the world championship but one would never discount Rossi he may just pull a rabbit out of a hat, this is racing and anything could happen !
Chanel One Sunday 11.30 pm
And there it is!
