Just looked up the YouTube of the race, thanks for the hint, it was great.
Awesome battle from start to finish, Darryn Binder is my favourite in that class, he's ruthless out there

This has been one of the most entertaining seasons in a long time. I honestly did not thing AM73 had that in him, at least not yet.

Great race. I am becoming a bit of a FM21 fan. Cool dude.

Will be interesting to see which bikes go well at Valencia. Never been a good Ducati track, I think it will be between the Yamaha and Suszuki boys.

Never thought I'd feel sorry for Honda but did a little today, especially Nakagami.

Watched motogp today for the first time in a while...Curious, when did road racers start sticking their inside leg out when setting up for a corner? Is that a new technique?

So now everyone is hoping Rossi tests positive for COVID. Seems a little messed up. Smile

Well, when was the last time an American straddled a MotoGP bike? Woohoo

I'm guessing our beloved Nicky.... 😢

Garrett must be losing sleep with excitement!

Well, Garrett participated in a wet FP1 and set a fast lap time 1.5 off the leader, but Rossi tested negative again so he will be piloting the M1 for the rest of the weekend.

Bummed for Garrett. Showed a lot of speed in tricky conditions. Hopefully will get proper chance soon.

Not the most exciting race, I've been watching MotoGP every year since 2003 and in all that time I would have never expected Suzuki to be in this position, good for them.

Davide Brivio... Yamaha lost him and now he has taken Suzuki to the top. Composed, solid ride from Mir. He seems to be getting better every weekend.

That's the reason i fell in love with blue Zooki RGV 500 Nr. 10 Kenny Roberts Jr. back then in 1999, in 2000 500ccm world title then 19 years of drought but it was all worth it. Cool

I fell in love with yellow off-road Zooki around 2005 in the hands of Joel Smets, Steve Ramon, Ken de Dycker, Kevin Strijbos, Clement Desalle, AJ27, Jeremy Seewer, H-Law, RC4 & Ryan Dungey.

It's a curse and blessing at the same time. Hopefully the haydays of off-road Zooki are yet to come. Wink

How about Binder! took a long lap penalty for his mistake last race with Miller and came through to 7th, what a ride! Olivera also had a quietly excellent ride.

True similar to Dall'Igna at Aprillia and Ducati. The rebuilding of the sport from the 800cc era is truly incredible.

The long lap penalty is very interesting, almost wonder if that could be integrated into SX.

Watching the Coverage of MotoGP really puts into perspective how amateur the SX broadcasts are. That and the Gp interviews are so much better, they'll actually tell you whats going on or what's wrong with their setup, where the other bikes are stronger/weaker. Its cool having that insight.

The MotoGP broadcast with the subscription to me is the gold standard of Motorsport broadcast. Complete quality. SX, F1 and others should take note.

How cool is it to see Suzuki up top!

They're such an interesting racing company – like they have the secret sauce in so many forms, when they decide to commit... and then they'll probably pack this effort up in a couple years.

Cool to see though. Wonder if they'll give Marquez a run next year, his speed was otherworldly before that crash.
