GP of Japan 🇯🇵 Spoiled

[silas]

GO DESMO DOVI ! Let's beat MM this year !!  Incredible race.  It's like something clicked in Dovi's head this year- (did I see an article about how he saw a sports psych?) . He always had so much potential but seemed to lack the ability to fight prior years. I hope this is his year. (since its not Pedro's).

This sport is like baseball...it can be very mental. Now he knows he can beat MM, and out fox him on the last laps. Love it.

I think it was this thread where someone mentioned Dovi's previous lack of a 'killer' instinct.

Interesting vid if you have a motogp script... http://www.motogp.com/en/videos/2017/10/18/dovizioso-s-mentality-the-white-and-black-horses/242955

Good stuff. I’m really surprised that more of these guys aren’t using head doctors. The mental game is Huge’ in sports.

There's someone in the Ducati squad that could use a heap of head doctoring......

And I've found a pic of Marquez's horses, the one isn't very white and he keeps a blanket on it 'cause it doesn't get out much.

Yup, but like Dovi said, some folks would/will/do look at that as a weakness.

Well... not sure if that would be helpful at this stage. If you would have said this 10 years, then maybe yes.
