I've been having a Sook. Sook Bloody Sook.

Evans down pretty much straight away. Sad Sook Sad Sook Sad Bloody Sook Sad

Normally I'm pretty 'non partisan' about racing, but I want to see Mitch do better, and retain his ride.

Oh well, he went from 31st to 10th.

A Yamaha freight train - they certainly got the bikes working.

Tigga getting things done. Keep it steady, and get that Title, young man!

Good fight between Febvre and Guillod(sp?) with 'G' trying to get back past 'F', but blowing through a turn, down into the boonies. Still got 9th.

Oh well, they are replaying 'Hitsville : The Making of Motown' on the TV next to my 'puter screen. It's a great documentary. I'm the 'Whitest of White Boys', being a Ranga, thus damned near Glowing in the dark, but bloody hell, even though I'm not much for music, you know things have got through your thick skull, into your Psyche, when you know every flamin' tune that comes up during a show, and however old they are, they are just fantastic. Should lift my Sooky mood, in time for the 2nd Motos.

Well, I bloody well hope so...... Whistling


PS - Having a Sook / Being a Sook, is several levels below Having a Sulk........... not becoming for a bloke in his 7th decade, over a bloody Motorcycle race.

People will say I'm being biased because I'm Australian but I honestly think Evans is a better pick for the HRC spot than Fernandez. He showed a lot of potential in 2020 then had some bad luck with his surgery going poorly but he's finding his feet again and is looking like he's getting back to that pre injury form. Fernandez has also been great this year, but I think Evans' ceiling is higher. I think Evans has a much higher chance of being a world champion than Fernandez.

Left some stuff out because I'm rushing this comment to watch the broadcast as it came on when I was typing this out haha

The ironic thing in this gajser herlings discussion is that gajser is much more of a crasher and not a small crasher either.

Wonder where Pancar ends up next year, if he keeps up close to this form maybe Adamo's ride?

I really want to see what Evans can do with a good start this race if he's not too tired from coming through the pack in the first one

Guada testing the Barriers Blink

Renaux flipping backwards then getting hammered / squished. Shocked

Go Mitch!

Winning the race was maybe a bit of a high goal for Evans when he was only 5th in a single moto all year. But good moto, keeping pace with the top 3. Damn team Australia is strong this year

Edit: fastest lap of the race lol! He could actually win this or get close at least

Did anyone else think JT was much better at this round? I haven't liked it every other time he's been on, in fact I groaned when I heard he was going to be in the booth but I thought he did a much better job this time and actually thought it was better than just Malin on his own.

He's Always been pretty good, and, he gets better every time.

With those 2, you've got 2 accomplished former racers, both with an agile brain, and both highly articulate.

Three qualities we don't often have, at the same time, in commentary boxes / studios.

Good to hear he's going to be back at the MXdN.

How old is Pancar? He’s been on 250F for a while now.

Pancar can do 1 more year in MX2.

He has been very impressive, super privateer.

This was his setup at Lommel

Really enjoying the return to form of Guillod. In conditions where people were struggling to pass he came back from two crashes in that second race to get back up to 12th.
Diga Procross should've given that replacement ride to Jere Haavisto, at least he's pushing up there in the points. Did he crash out of the second race or was it a mechanical? Mewse...who knows.....

Mewse must be at a crossroads in his GP career. I just can’t see anyone wanting to pick him up for next year. His results on the 450 have been terrible, he can barely get inside the top 25, which surprised me because he’s fairly tall. Domestic ride only next year is my bet.

This is probably what I expected out of him, I thought there was a very small chance he could be around 10-15 on the 450 but that was if he was a significantly better 450 rider than 250 rider, which I guess we now know he's not. Britain is going through a pretty big rough patch with riders at the moment and it seems like they're going to be for quite a while at this point. Barely any of them race outside of Britain anyway.

In his 250 n emx days he had the speed of j seewer.
His 450 decline has been surprising.
Had the best style on 250.
Hope he can keep this up.
I think him running the German series and competing ( winning odd race) with m nagal has got his confidence back.

Well he had the budget to do a year mx2 including fly aways in his own "team". Dont think mxgp will be much different in terms of budget.

I’m not talking about budget, I’m talking about his talent or lack of it seems these days.

Guillod should have tko or jasikonis spot for next year. He can ride inside the top 10 with a decent bike/program.
