Eventful.
Jack and Esparago clash over previous race incident.
Rossi loses his chain. MM makes another great save and Quarter is fast out of the blocks at his home race. Sadly a marshal passed away from a heart attack.
What was Aleix whining about?
It appears he didnt like Jacks pass on him in Spain and said Jack deserved to crash. They had an argument on a plane if reports are true.

FP1 clearly illustrates the difference between Repsol riders when the bike gets on the curbs.
Jorge on the deck.
Marc SOP, carry on no big deal.
What is the strategy from Rossi's side?
Can't do the lap time?
For pete's sake get out on track with some soft tires and maybe catch a tow or someone to chase.

Good to see the ducks up there. I'm hoping Miller can upset MM if it's wet enough.

Marc walked away after a brief dice with Jack, who faded to 4th.
Dovi and Petrux diced for second...kind of. I think Danilo handed the position to Dovi, like a good team mate that isn't fighting for the championship would.
Hopefully when Ducati does their decision making for next years factory spot, that will weigh in his favor.

Did you see the close up footage of Jack shaking his head when giving it gas? The rear shock was pumping as the tyre lost traction and it appeared the GOAT had similar issues. They did well. [thumbsup]
The Moto3 race was a cracker! [thumbsup]
Gotta watch it.
