Jack took a gamble on a harder rear tyre than the rest and never got going. I don't know what happened with Dovi and Pirro crashed and the bike caught fire.
Good to see the local boy do well. Over 100,000 attended.

“Apart from the crash, I’ve never seen @ValeYellow46 so consistent. More than 10 laps in just 1 tenth at the hottest and longest track impressed me today. And some said he started too feel his age after last race.”

All I can say is "RATS! !"
No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

I think MM should be penalized for reckless riding causing Iannone to crash.  He can practice crashing during practice sessions.

The Lamb made a great save and Mad Andrew twitched which was enough. It proves the rider input theory. ;D I forget who was right behind him, but it looked like a near miss from the camera angle.
It must be annoying for Rossi to have young riders use his old tactics against him.

Seems Mad Andrew hasn't been watching much video on MM, the rest of us have and we know he loses the front all the time and rarely falls.
Just carry on as you were, he'll gather it back up and all will be good.

Seriously, total racing incident, sucked for him.

Did you see the crash the week before when Zarco was following MM close?   Marc pulled in front of Zarco. 
He was my favorite rider, but I have changed my mind.  Anyone but MM.

Well, you’ll be upset for years to come then.  :D

MM just moved across from a tighter, protective line to set up his line for the corner entry. A reasonable move as was Zarco getting pulled close by the slipstream. Neither was at fault given the split second decisions required at very high speed. Both riders said it was a racing incident and you can bet they would say so if they thought otherwise. The speed of that track is intimidating.

I'm not sure riders following/attacking MM are happy with his use of two or three lines in corners. Egoistic and somewhat dangerous.
