He and the Smurf stayed on the hard tires, didn't try the soft tires.

Oh. You would have thought that if they wanted to test the longevity of the soft tires, that they would have mounted them from the beginning of the session.

The Smurf ran the soft tires in the morning (FP1).

Seems a bit odd, but they're among the sharpest knives in the drawer.

Hmmm... when does The Ben and Perdrobot lose their factory rides? I'm still a fan of The Ben (even like his hamburger restaurant here in Dallas!) but not of Pedrobot. Maybe they can get a job serving and busing tables at Stackhouse Hamburgers!! laughingdp I think The Ben should go back to his roots and run WSBK. Pedrobot... hmmm, I'm thinking busing tables. Don't see him as a WSBK rider. Maybe Moto2??? popcorn

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

Never mind. Saw the highlight. He almost highsided and brought the bike back onto the racing line. That was a douchebag move.

And, again, no consequences. I thought that maybe, since he took out a catalonian this time, there might be some. But I failed to take into account how far up Repsol's ass the series is.

The expression on the face of the yamaha prez when spies went down did not bode well at all for his contract next year.

Marquez seriously is the biggest douchebag of them all. That was such a bullshit move on his part  boo

I really don't want to see him in the GP because of those types of things that he has a penchant for doing... but alas  he is riding the Repsol train

On the other hand, what a pity for Ben. He finally got a good start

I think Marc is a pile .... but not for today's incident. After having just saved the bike on his knee... coming back into Pol was a fluke thing. Watching it in slo-mo... it looks deliberate, but when viewed at normal speed.... not so much ( IMO)

And Pol..... there's no crying in Moto2.... motoGP maybe .... but not moto2

Pedro is a top three fastest guy in the world, soon to be number two when Stoner vacates his seat.  He deserves his ride.  Ben has no results to show for anything he's doing in MotoGP this year.  He may have won, but he screwed up.  Bad luck and mistakes is becoming the norm for him.  Once again we go back to "he needs to turn it around quickly or lose his ride."
