    MotoGP race wasn't very exciting, was looking forward to another Dovi vs MM battle but the Honda went boom - I bet some mechanic or engineer is getting reamed out right now.

    Moto2 & 3 tonight

    Anyone else see Pol Espargaro (sp?) highside on the cool down lap?

    We have different definitions of exciting. I though the race was great. Rossi was impressive, as was Dovi. After Marc's motor blew it got even more exciting to me. Dovi could have settled, but he didn't, and it could be a championship winning ride. Motogp is not that likely to be a dogfight, so perhaps your expectations are off.

    Not the most eventful but a good race, Rossi was strong just didn't get enough of a lead there, surprised but impressed by Dovi though!

    My heart actually sunk when Marquez blew up, hate seeing mechanical shit take someone out like that.

    His peers collectively decided not to reel him in too soon. Dovi's made a pattern of taking the lead with 10 to go and then putting in his fastest laps. Its working very well for him.

    I liked all the races. Moto 2 delivered all the way to the end. Moto 3 was just bonkers.

    Yeahhhhhh... I knew it was coming though, thanks to Shawn's spoiler on FB

    Was a sick race, though.

    Moto2 was a shaping up to be a good one, too. Bummed when Alex bit it. He's prob my fav rider in Moto2 now. Was Sam "Sir Crashalot" Lowes with that wild style, but Alex is just so damn quick and always riding so damn closed to the edge.

    Re: Moto GP 2017

    Great job by Dovi. How did Marquez save that highside on the last lap?

    I always like to look at the overall results - top Yamaha was Zarco in 8th, ahead of Vinales factory Yamaha in 9th. Think the Suzuki execs (4th and 5th) are gonna give the Yamaha guys a hard time at the next karaoke bar get together?

    After Marquez, next Honda was.........Tito Rabat in 15th

    I still can't believe the result. Dovi has to be perfect for the remaining races

    Re: Moto GP 2017

    Unbelievable Marquez's propensity to just throw a bike in front of another racer no matter how dangerous, the conditions, and his likelihood of making it to the finish line first. Dovi in the other hand so consistent, so head strong.
