In reply to Post #734 Deffo Toprak, best in the world for me
Why he is still in WSB is beyond me
Bridewell doing well in BSB on the Honda, must be paying him a packet, champ last year with Ducati, now with Honda!
Great sprint race today if you have not seen it, pleased with the results for me

In reply to Post #733 Pretty amazing how BMW have got it together this year in WSB, looking like really strong contenders, can't just be Toprak making the difference, then again why not, and a combination of both
You're not wrong re Hondas resources, it is very odd, like they've taken their eye of the ball
Not sure if it was on here but I read Honda are having a hard time with EV's, might even consider pulling the plug on MGP, that would be a real shame

In reply to Post #732 Sad times for the Jap brands, they lead the way for years, now it’s Ducati, KTM and as you say BMW that seem to be leading the way, in Europe anyway
WSB and BSB, bit of a mixed bunch and still seem competitive track dependant, nothing can touch those V4s for torque and straight line power. Saying that, Honda has been running one for years, bike seems un-rideable so I’m guessing it’s more chassis and geometry’s that’s their problem but with the resource they have you think they would have fixed it a while ago!

In reply to Post #731 As for factory Baginia, might be just me, I call him flippin boring, character, zero
It'll be interesting to see if Bastianini can do it this year, Bagnaia gauranteed nothing if he does, MM likely to be pushing one of them out.
I can't see any way back for Honda/Yam for the forseeable, would they leave :-0
I'd like to see BMW come in and move them further down the pecking order

In reply to Post #730 Saw it, a fine margin
Acosta like a breathe of fresh air, like Martin myself, you have to respect MM, incredible, Aprillia riders hit and miss and FQ on the Yamaha, surprised he has stayed, the money must outweigh the chance of a championship or they have promised him something special, a V4 rumour!
As for factory Baginia, might be just me, I call him flippin boring, character, zero
Anybody remeber Honda! What has gone off here, bike seems unrideable, how can you go from so right to so wrong with all that backing
Brad Binder and KTM, love it, I think I will be taking Jack Millers place next year, or Acosta lol

Pacos having an amazing start to his rookie season, he's my new fave, shame he had the off on this one but he'll learn.
How he didn't collect Digi and Esp on the way down is beyond me

In reply to Post #727 If ratty gets the red ride next year I can't see anyone keeping up with him!

Pleased for Martin but that was some race from MM

In reply to Post #725 Just read about F1 buying Moto GP..hmm, take over apparently complete this year from Dorna though they retain some aspects of it.

In reply to Post #724 Cant say I'm not worried about a second coming of rat boy. Was it Paco last week that said he was riding beyond the limits of his steed. Ratty reminded me of (was it Stoner) in the way he's starting to slide that bike around, very impressive. I doubt very much if he won't be in red very soon :-(
Personally I'm still finding WSB more entertaining at the mo in general.

In reply to Post #723 Great start indeed and love or loathe him but MM seems to be getting to grips with the duke.

What a great start to the season got to say I've got a new fave in Paco, what a star

In reply to Post #721 Looks like they've jumped into RNFs slot at short notice and were planning on 2025. A name change on paper at the moment, but on a quick read about them in Nascar I dont think your wrong long term, can only be a good thing. Looking forward to see how they get on, Olivera's no slouch!
(Press release blurb:- Trackhouse will essentially take over the old RNF squad and its staff, while Miguel Oliveira and Raul Fernandez – who are contracted to Aprilia – will remain as riders.)

I am a big NASCAR fan and if Trackhouse can do what they have done in a shot space of time it will be interesting to see what they can do in MOTO.GP
