Really?

All I can say is George continues to be a douche.

...oh...Marc continues to win.

MM is hard enough to beat without that margin.

Strange that such an abrasive track was also so slippery. Riders caught out all over the place. Both tyre wear and losing the front and rear were issues.

Haven't watched Moto2 yet, but the Moto 3 race was like a bowling match. People getting taken out all over the place. John McPhee was completely vertical, all the while holding on to the bars, from a highside and he saved it. :o Randy Mamola...eat your heart out. :P

Also, the Honda's had two riders drop out of the lead due to mechanicals...they just quit running...very un Honda like

My boy finally gets a great start, they were ganging up on MM early again, than boom. If Dovi didn't STOP, Lorenzo wouldn't have grabbed all that front brake. Yeah he was a little hot, but nothing crazy. What was the final tally of riders going down? Half the field at least. Tricky track today for some reason. (?) #9 looked good today and had some great battles till Rinns tried to launch himself off the bike. Crazy race.
Woohoohoohoo! Two personal records! For breath holding and number of sharks shot in the face.

Dovi stopped to avoid contact with MM...at least that's how I saw it.

Every rider that finished collected points.

Crazy race.

If Mavericck, or Rossi, had any tire left at the end they would have been  serious contenders.

Like Nate said, Dovi checked up to avoid hitting Marc which caused JLo to react. So, MM actually caused the chain reaction. On purpose or a weird line. (?)

Oh and 3 podiums in a row for Danilo.  [clap]

Everyone can decide for themselves.

I disagree with Daryl. George was way too hot for that corner this weekend. It had been a problem all weekend, and particularly today. I don't think Marc's line was that weird, or taken intentionally for any other reason than to pass Dovi.

C'mon,his line' caused Dovi to have to drop the anchor. Something was up, or Dovi was in too hot as well, dragging JLo with him. I say simply a racing incident, but what was causing all the other wrecks. Aprilia team took each other out. Cal went in way too fast on his wreck., etc etc etc. I'm blaming the full moon. 🌕

That's racing. Any time a rider gets stuffed in a corner he'll react by checking up, or standing the bike up. Same thing happened in Mugello when Petrux passed Dovi inside. It's the rider behind that responsible for not colliding with another rider. George didn't do that. He's already said it was his fault, and I agree. There was nothing wrong with Marc's line. Dovi was slow into the corner. Petrucci saw it and slowed. Marc saw it and passed. Rossi and Lorenzo reacted way too late. Lorenzo took out Dovi, and one of the bikes took out Rossi in the run off when he ran over it. Had those two not over cooked it into the corner we wouldn't be having this discussion.

The track sucked this weekend. It was hot, and that track is greasy when it gets hot. It was that way for all three classes. The commentators were talking about a stat that shows Barcelona is always at the top of the list for crashes. Add the fact that the circuit was changed in turn 10, for safety reasons, and the new turn doesn't really fit the layout.

The stewards will decide whether George was at fault and penalized, or if it was just a racing incident, and life will go on.
