MotoGP 2017

Epic moto 3 race and a great start to the season. Lets hope it continues in the next 2 races.

 

[Wild Thing]

just getting settled in for the GP

 

[DriftnSlide]

Too much dicking about, start the race already. Its only one corner damp.
Feels like the NW200.

 

[BLS]

Vinales for the title,looks so comfortable on the yam. Great 3rd place from Vale never rule the Doctor out. Just wish zarco and Iannone had have stayed on.

 

[Wild Thing]

Zarco is one to watch over the next few races

 

[dave b]

Great race looks like there will be more competition than last season
Chuffed for Rossi he has not been on the pace at all through winter testing
Good to see Pedrosa performing well
Espargaro was flying on the Aprilia

 

[Sanz]

Jorge.....hahahahahahahahaha

 

[BLS]

Jorge.....hahahahahahahahaha

Aye laughing all the way to the bank....

Wow! This season is off to a cracking start
Factory Hondas and Ducatis all crashed out - Dovi has no luck.
Vinales looking sharp - I wish Rossi would sort the front end issues out although 2nd place is not too shabby for a bike that's not working fully for you

 

[BLS]

Vinales riding that thing like its on rails so smooth,Rossi his happy Alot of good tracks to come for him. Lorenzo a total nightmare to start of season.

 

[DriftnSlide]

Cal on the podium was the result for me.
Great start to the season for the Doc, and karma coming back to haunt Marquez. lol
Vinales is a potential champ this season.

 

[svensktoppen]

Did a bit of catching up, bit if a disaster so far for Lorentzo, lol

Both Rossi and Vinales looking very good.

I really thought Marquez had it though before he crashed out, miles ahead.

 

[dave b]

Another cracking race!
Marquez untouchable as usual at this track but great to see Rossi on form now
Disappointing to see Vinales dump it but early days yet
Good to see Lorenzo showing improvement too

 

[Wild Thing]

One of the most boring tracks on the calender, colourful and bumpy, stewards are numpties, 0.3 where did that figure come from

 

[dave b]

Imagine the uproar if Rossi had been less than 0.3s ahead of Pedrosa

We're for Assen in June for a mates stag. Few days in Amsterdam and getting the train over on the Sunday. Can't wait to see them live

 

[Dave..]

Question, why do the riders take their leg of the peg before some corners? Is this a new style?
Don't remember Roberts and Sheene doing it.

 

[dave b]

@David.S Rossi invented the doctors dangle

It shifts more weight to the back of the bike to stabilise it braking

 

[svensktoppen]

That was a brilliant race and a great result for the championship

You had me worried there but just double checked and they are racing on Sunday. Cheers for the heads up anyway.

That was changed a couple of years ago i think. I went last year and it was on a sunday.

 

[cupraricky]

Thank you.

Also acts kinda like an air brake too
