MotoGP Mugello (yes... spoilers, duh!)

[Raux]

Dovi has a 10km/h avantage on the straights and is STILL 6 seconds behind MM

and PIRRO!!!  .398 off and in 2nd!  maybe they found something in that lab bike finally.

Keep in mind that half the riders didn't really participate other than a handful of laps.  The track was drying/wet.

[stopintime]

FP2 Rossi and Lorenzo on top.

Pirro fast - was on 5th - ended 10th   

Swoosh.... where did Hayden find that pace

Swoosh.... where did Hayden find that pace 

1 second off the pace in the dry.  Seems about right.   

[MadDuck]

1 second off the pace in the dry.  Seems about right.   

I was going to say.........

[swampduc]

1 second off the pace in the dry.  Seems about right.   

You just need to lower your standards/expectations. Then it'll be impressive 

[Triple J]

I take it none of you saw Marquez' crash?

200 mph sliding in the grass on the left side of the straight going into one.

Not seriously injured...but it was scary.

He just found something he can't/shouldn't do on a GP bike.

I saw it...pretty crazy. Not sure what happened as the video didn't show all of it, but it kinda looked like his signature swing wide at the last minute before the corner move and he clipped the grass??

Glad he's OK.

I think he locked the front...picked up he rear wheel and when he came down crossed up it sent him into the grass.

[Jester]

Marquez might have snatched too much brake coming over the crest and locked up.  It looked brutal during the live session.  Very glad he's ok.

[Raux]

damn.

again Pedrosa slows up Marquez.

Marquez then tries to catch Lorenzo and is out.. 

Pedrosa doesn't deserve that bike.

they were on Lorenzo's tail and when he turned it up, Pedrosa couldn't hang.
