Unfortunately you can not hide NOS bottles on the Honda GP bike.   Tongue  All kidding aside, I'm expecting a rookie year similar to Lorenzo's.  Blazing speed, some wrecklessness, maybe a few spectacular crashes, grumbling from the "old" vets, and a worthy successor to Stoner's seat.

plus, we already know he can start last and still win.

Dude, you pulled this out of your crystal ball? Marquez just ripped through the field.

The MotoGP race was terrible. What a make the beast with two backsing cluster make the beast with two backs. Regardless of what people may say, no one likes to watch a race where half the field ends up in the gravel.

I don't want to see guys in the gravel, but you have to admit at least there was some excitement with this race.

yes...yes there was...Lorentho's moonshot was amazingly violent...and I can't wait to hear if there was any kind of blue flag that wasn't being shown because that wouldn't surprise me in the least.

(in my opinion) if he was being impatient, he would've forced the pass. in this case, i think "slowing down" to pick a better place to pass is what unsettled his bike and caused the highside.

that's the way i saw it during the race, but i haven't re-watched the incident.

also, FWIW, it looked like the way Ellison was on the race line, he wasn't giving any sign of yielding, which to me made me think he wasn't being shown a blue flag...not that I am a fan of Jorge...but more in terms of preventing some of these very issues which even Casey whined about in warning to ( though it was more in the disparity between CRT and prototype machinery in regards to lapping issues)...this is why Jorge had to change up something when this happened or he would have run both bikes off the course based on his speed and rythem...

The problem was giving way to JLo would have meant leaving the dry line and possibly crashing.

(wet) racing incident.  nowhere for ellison to go, and even if it were a dry track holding his line is the right thing to do.
