Yeah, it really seems like the whole thing about Ducati picking Bez over him really put a massive chip on his shoulder that he still hasn't gotten over... and then it's as if going on and winning a championship gave him an entitlement complex. Bad mix.
Re: MotoGP Discussion (SPOILERS!)
Definite race of the year for Moto2, just got a chance to watch it last night. Too bad for Canet doing all the hard work to be punted off the podium in the last few turns. Everyone in the top 4 ran a great race, entertaining from lights out to checkers!
Re: MotoGP Discussion (SPOILERS!)
Speaking of Moto2 what's going on with Joe Roberts? He was in the hunt last year this year not so much, don't know if he's even cracked into the top ten yet in any race.

iirc Ducati chose MM93 over Martin for the factory team. Martin was pissed and signed with Aprilia almost immediately after. And important to note that Espargaro, Martin's best buddy in MotoGP, is now a test rider for Honda. So maybe he's telling Martin that Honda have some amazing things on the way and that's why Martin wants to bale from Aprilia.

I think you meant the Beast (Bastianini) who's gone to waste now at KTM.

Roberts has been lost for a bit. This class can be like that though. Consistency near the top is extremely rare. It seems that if you are just a hair off with the bike, or your riding, you are out of the top ten. And it happens to literally everyone.
Re: MotoGP Discussion (SPOILERS!)
Moto 2 is a tough class.. The margin is thin..Tattoo is a fast dude and struggles with being at the front all the time..
Makes for some fun racing.

No, I'm not talking about this past year when they chose Marquez, I mean the year before JM won the championship. It was a toss up between Martin and..... (see below)

Thaaaat's right... E Bastianini, not M Bezzecchi. I always mix them up.
