Man... 2017 is going to have a really hard time beating 2016 in terms of great races. That said, I thought 2015 was going to be impossible to beat too.

"Pedrosa reeled in 3.3 sec in 14 laps while passing MM, JLo and Rossi."

Possibly the best race of his career from that perspective.

I am not sure how Honda would have taken it, hadn't he able to pass VR as well.

Yeah...George figured Rossi should wait until George wouldn't be scared by being passed. laughingdp
Had the same issue with the poor Sic at Estoril, which laughed as VR did (which in turn upset JLo):

Hmmm, and he ran the soft front tyre without overheating it. He is also the lightest rider. Put those together and he could utilize the soft front and ride to his style on the bike. Just a theory.

NO load from wings . . . tyre doesn't bear? all that extra "weight" so stays cooler . . . Just a theory . . .

Factoid from Julian Ryder:

This year, Michele Pirro has finished more races than Iannone.

Wow...

Though in all fairness, Crazy Joe did pretty good in at least one of the ones he finished.
