New tires at the end, supposedly. Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: kopfjäger on October 13, 2016, 05:46:35 PM I guess my boy was watching himself on the big screen. :D
Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: ducpainter on October 13, 2016, 05:50:39 PM I guess my boy was watching himself on the big screen. :D He sure couldn't get it stopped in one.Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: koko64 on October 13, 2016, 08:37:12 PM What, he's (Miller) upright?! :o
Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: Needle99 on October 13, 2016, 11:23:31 PM I expect Miller to take it easy this weekend.
Really wants to ride at his home Gp..... Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: ducpainter on October 14, 2016, 04:03:55 AM I expect Miller to take it easy this weekend. Yup...only one crash in the first two sessions. :PReally wants to ride at his home Gp..... Bad crashes for Pedrosa, a highside to the moon, broke his collarbone and won't ride. Laverty crashed hard also, and got hauled off on a stretcher. Can't find a status on motogp.com Edit... Laverty's OK... http://www.bbc.com/sport/northern-ireland/37653854 (http://www.bbc.com/sport/northern-ireland/37653854) Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: scaudill on October 14, 2016, 06:21:40 AM The wings are huge!

Danny could have been a spoiler. Might be the end of the season for him. Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: kopfjäger on October 14, 2016, 06:44:57 AM Not sure how long this will stay up. He was launched

Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: Speeddog on October 14, 2016, 10:10:37 AM Pedrosa got launched at the apex, and landed on the green runoff strip past the curb on the exit.
Glad to hear Laverty's OK, that was brutal. First a highside, then his bike tries to squash him, and finished off with tumbling head over heels in the gravel. I was sure he was hurt. Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: ducpainter on October 14, 2016, 10:14:19 AM The stretcher ride was certainly disconcerting.
Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: DarkMonster620 on October 14, 2016, 02:53:57 PM Ouch!
Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: ducpainter on October 14, 2016, 04:57:25 PM Laverty sitting out FP3 due to concussion from yesterday's crash. Maybe FP4.
Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: kopfjäger on October 14, 2016, 05:02:01 PM Jack goes down again
Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: ducpainter on October 14, 2016, 05:12:24 PM Jack goes down again That's only twice.Good thing he's taking it easy. ;D Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: kopfjäger on October 14, 2016, 05:36:54 PM Holy make the beast with two backs balls. Lorenzo got spit off like he was in the PBR.
Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: ducpainter on October 14, 2016, 05:38:38 PM Holy make the beast with two backs balls. Lorenzo got spit off like he was in the PBR. Well, he can't win the championship, so he's competeing with Dani for biggest high side.Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: kopfjäger on October 14, 2016, 05:39:38 PM That was wicked, and he landed flat on his back.
Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: kopfjäger on October 14, 2016, 05:40:20 PM Jack. Give it up dog, you're not ready to be back.
Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: Speeddog on October 14, 2016, 06:29:08 PM Dani and JLo only had bronc rides, Laverty had the bull that stomped him after it threw him down. :-X
Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: kopfjäger on October 14, 2016, 06:39:09 PM :D True, that bike was going after him like a bull.

Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: Speeddog on October 15, 2016, 09:07:57 AM FIFY ;D Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: ducpainter on October 15, 2016, 09:11:11 AM FIFY ;D Just a kid Nick... ;)Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: Speeddog on October 16, 2016, 07:32:05 AM Well, that was a surprise!
Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: koko64 on October 16, 2016, 08:56:32 AM For Marc and his team too at first.
Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: ducpainter on October 16, 2016, 08:57:46 AM Well, that was a surprise! I posted my reaction in the news thread by mistake. :PFor Marc and his team too at first. They recovered quick enough to get the shirts out in time.Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: koko64 on October 16, 2016, 09:11:09 AM Yeah, and the golden helmet. I guess they carry that stuff to every round from when its theoretically possible.
Wonder if there have been cases of things not working out as planned and that stuff getting binned by season's end? Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: MadDuck on October 16, 2016, 10:11:27 AM Didn't see those finishing results coming at all. :o Who would have thought?
Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: kopfjäger on October 16, 2016, 10:16:11 AM High drama! [clap] My boy on the podium again.
Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: koko64 on October 17, 2016, 02:37:44 AM If MM can stay healthy and stay interested in the sport, he could give VR's records a good shake.

Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: thought on October 17, 2016, 11:57:21 PM After Rossi had his off, I was thinking, damn, just let the kid win already... then he did.
Wasn't rooting for him this season but it was great to see how happy he was with this surprise win. Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: koko64 on October 18, 2016, 12:28:20 AM Yeah, it's easy to overlook that he's still a kid really. Amazing achievements at his age. If VR's the GOAT, MM is the LAMB.
Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: Rameses on October 18, 2016, 10:21:34 AM Yeah, it's easy to overlook that he's still a kid really. Amazing achievements at his age. If VR's the GOAT, MM is the LAMB. Wouldn't that be the KID? Title: Re: Motegi Motogp 2016---Spoilers Post by: koko64 on October 18, 2016, 12:15:14 PM As in young GOAT, sure that'll do.
