    In regards to the championship, yes.

    I don't know if you watched the post race interviews. It was cool to hear how excited everyone was about the race, especially Rossi. I figured it was going to be a bunch of pissing and moaning about Zarco and the like being too aggressive. Glad to see these boys still like racing.

    Oh man... the action in PI was AMAZING!!! Like Paul I was a little bummed about the finishing order, but HOLY SHIT was it a hard fought race! And Moto3 was fucking SIIIIICK!

    Gonna watch Moto2 now. If it's HALF as good as Moto3 and GP I'll have a good time

    Re: Moto GP 2017

    That was a pretty wild ending to the season. I can’t believe Marquez stayed up when he lost it going into turn 1! Unreal!!! Not the first time we’ve seen him completely lose the front and still pick it up but damn! If he crashes there good chance Dovi goes on to win....then he crashes out too! Unreal, dudes.

    Looks like Paul wins the bet, Lorenzo places 2 spots ahead of Crutchlow in the season standings and no one had Dovi on the board.

    Paul, I owe you a kale salad or whatever the fuck it is you eat to be 132 pounds.

    Perhaps not the way things turned out, but had he been there I think it would have been a different race. Dovi could have applied pressure on MM.

    Maybe, but he wasn't going to be there. Lorenzo was pulling him forward, not holding him up. Evidence: He never even came close to showing him a wheel.

    And i still can hardly belive marc pulled off another one of his front end crash/save scenarios in this race. Geeeze. His completion rate is climbing despite 27 crashes this year. Also, how does he not get hirt... ever?

    Dovi could see dickheads board too, and likely knew he was being told to pull over by the team. He may not have wanted to risk a pass that he didn't have to make?

    Never mind. Dovi says he didn't hold him up...

    I believe his nickname in the paddock is Popeye, which makes me like him even more.

    Cal wasn't on the list. Dovi was the best choice. Lorenzo it a tool, and Max is a douche

    Awesome season... Interesting end! I was all "WTF LORENZO! PULL OVER!" for a little while, but you guys are right, when Dovi didn't show him a wheel I got the impression it was because he couldn't. It looked like Dovi had a little more mid-corner speed than Lorenzo but he didn't quite seem to have as much for him on entrance and exit.

    idk, I disagree with that somewhat. While Dovi may not have technically shown 99 a wheel, he was inside of his rear wheel multiple times during that race. Had Jorge moved ~ when instructed to do so, perhaps Dovi wouldn't have had to push as hard.
