The Ducs did much better than what I thought they would, but still convinced that they will need an Alien to really compete.

Unbelievable VR! What a race!
Ducatis are going to be there every race this year.
MM took too many risks, and should have settled for 2nd place, at the chunks VR was gaining on him at every lap.

That race was really somethin'
Agree 100% with you duccarlos.
What happened to Lorenzo? He must really be feeling like a turd these days.
Great move by Crusty for the podium. I was hoping he would get it.

The sun got in Lorenzo's eyes. He inhaled a mosquito. Some kid gave him a dirty look.
What a race.

Best season openers so far in years I'd say.
Incredible racing, always a nail biter.
And to think that this time last year Rossi was fighting to just keep the contract with Yamaha... incredible.
Also... Dovi is only 6 points from leading the championship too... never thought I would see that happen on a Duc.

Absolutely. This year will be a lot more uncertain than last year.
Not only for the win, but for the podium as well, with Ducati able to be there at every race. I would have loved to see VR on this Ducati!
JLo. WTF happened to the guy? He seem to have totally lost it.

Carlos...I love ya bro...but I want whatever it is that you are smoking.
3 races in with 3 2nd places from the turnip truck by Dovi. Iannone has had a 3rd, 5th and 4th.
Dovi has finished better than Lorenzo in all 3 races. Iannone has finished better than Lorenzo in 2 out of 3.
I understand that we are only talking about 3 races so far but to say that they aren't "really" competing...come on man. Seriously?

With his choice of tire Jorghey should have been hounding Iannone and Crutchlow. He's now relegated to the same level as the Turd. They have no will to battle. He needs to be leading into the first corner to check out. He seems to just give up after a few laps knowing that the rest of the field is still not fast enough to catch him for 5th.

You can always count Dovi for a podium, but he will only win a championship, and I'm going to catch some heat for this one, the same way that Nicky won his championship. His consistency will keep him in the points and if he's lucky MM and Vale will take each other out a few times. Unfortunately for him the Rossi of 2006 is not the Rossi of 2015. Vale and MM will eventually pull ahead of the pack leaving the rest fighting for 3rd. And from what we've seen, Lorenzo does not have the fight in him.

Wonder if MM will take a few less risky tyre choices from here.
Burned twice now....
Racing at the back looked to be good again by the frequent swapping of places...

Perfectly played race my VR. Steady, methodic, and always pushing.
Jorge...?? Is that what we can expect from him the rest of the season? If so, give his seat to Alex Marquez.
Any follow-up comments from MM on the incident, his tire choice, etc.?

MM disappeared into his van and did not release any comment AFAIK.
It is clearly not VR fault. MM hit VR first, than put his front tire 1' aside from VR rear tire, in an inside point where VR was going to enter a turn.
MM could not possibly keep 4 laps in front of someone eating 0.5s per lap. Likely even Dovi might have come in front of him.

Just read a MM interview on the news, and he does not blame VR for the accident.
He also said the extra hard tire was not a good match for his bike, so they had to pick the hard one.

OMG!!! What a race, I speculate MM attempted a cheap "REPSOL" move by trying to knock a rear wheel speed sensor of VR's Yamaha. Somebody please post a pic of VR riding away while MM was sliding on his ass.
