In reply to Post #25 No, his next work swing starts tomorrow so he only got to watch today's free practices. He knows a few people who have tickets for the actual races and they are questioning whether or not to go due to the weather
Going to be interesting whatever the weather chucks up, it's Moto GP after all..........

In reply to Post #23 Hi Chris
Had a text from a friend who works in Doha and the wind is blowing a lot of sand onto the track, not going to get better tomorrow for the race by all accounts. Looks like it's going to be survival of the fittest. I don't think qualifying will have much bearing on any of the race class results, gonna be a tyre weekend I think

In reply to Post #22 High side, not good at all John
Mainly the rear wheel slipping and then gripping
Mind you though, the introduction of the air bag suits is a big step forward imho. Think its Lorenzo on the Alpinestars site, 150mph high side, air bag goes off and he walks away
So much power those bikes, unreal, don’t seem to come off them as much as the 500cc two stokes though, they were mental. I would love a go on one, steady away though

Hi All
Loving all this, just wish they could eradicate hi sides somehow, every time I see one my heart is in my mouth so as to speak. I know Lorenzo went over on a slow corner, but........ horrible

In reply to Post #20 Those Hondas are a far superior bike imho, that’s the real difference

Marquez has blown it out the ball park in fp2 man's on fire again Lorenzo not far behind

In reply to Post #17 A whole other level now, forget knee sliders, elbow sliders
A great race of many here, in the rain though, mental
in the wet!
I saw Stoner at a Caldwell BSB event and he lead the 125 race by half a lap! I thought, yep, he’s gonna be something special

In reply to Post #16 seeing that when Rossi got put back to the back of the grid for that and most of the grid infront let him through. just shows that it wasn't a kick..

In reply to Post #16 to be fair to Rossi though he needs a good kicking, how very dare that upstart 🤣
|
|
|
In reply to Post #13 Was that before or after the time Rossi kicked Marquez off Rossi fans always crying 😭

In reply to Post #13 yeah I remember that one, mm even held his hand up so he knew he was in the wrong and took the wrong racing line..
