Dovi crashed losing the front coming over Lukey Heights down into MG Corner during FP4, messing up his qualifying momentum. That front tyre was smoking. Any lack of confidence in front end feel or grip makes MG Corner a heart in mouth experience as it's daunting at the best of times. They have some work to do.

Crusty crashed and Lorenzo also crashed possibly hurting his ankle.

Jack was shot of a cannon at the start and Dovi went from 11 to 20. Zarco almost took MM out, and we’re only on the second lap.  [popcorn]

Another exciting race.
MM has his hands on the title.
Disaster for Dovi
Jack did well.
The battle for second had Zarco, Crazy Joe and Rossi trading paint. Rossi did well to survive those two nut cases.
Scuffed fairings and tyre marks on leathers. [evil]

 :o That battle for second was simply fantastic. I thought for sure Zarco and Rossi were gonna take each other out. My boy ran a great race. Dovi has been living large, but that should pretty much end his chances.

Mav did well. Kept his composure after getting roughed up. A cool customer for sure. It looked like Moto 3 there for awhile. :D

I’ll try to rewatch it tomorrow. Had a long morning and was falling asleep throughout. I gave up and just fast forwarded till the end.

Dovi’s dream of a title this year was destroyed on that first lap.

I thought last weeks race was good, this week it was fantastic.  I was pulling for Dovi, but didn't happen.

Was there complete start-to-finish video of Zarco driving around the outside of Mav in Doohan?

That whole race was madness by MotoGP standards.

I'm sure Mav and Rossi were really happy to have Zarco and Iannone all over them like cheap suits!

Barring freak occurrences befalling Marquez, Dovi's come up short.
