The new season is hopefully only few weeks up the road and we had already test delays, MM93 uncertainty & most recently Fausto Gresini passing away.
This is the point where i leave the stage for you folks to post positive comments about what are you looking for this upcoming MotoGP season.

On the other hand, I expect a similar season to last, with many riders exchanging podiums. I think Morbidelli will continue to shine on the Petronas Yamaha but Quartararo really should come of age this year. Then there's Miller on the factory Ducati...Rossi, Pol on the Honda, Vinales? One thing for certain last year though was that the Suzuki was a brilliant all-rounder. If Rins can stay injury-free this year and Marquez isn't in it for the championship, then I would put my money on him. Can't wait!
Would love to see morbidelli up clinch it and/or one of the ktm’s in the hunt too.
I think MM93 isn’t going to be the same rider off the bat, if at all. This injury is taking some recovery and even if it isn’t affecting him physically by the time he comes back, it is going to be mentally, let alone the rust he’s going to have from over a year off.
The Shop
Pissed they are delaying or skipping the Austin round. Going to have to give in and take the girlfriend to Europe for a week so I can see at least one race in person.
Until somebody shows faster lap times I would have to say that Suzuki is in the driver seat with the best overall package.
And yes finally we have some Americans going overseas to represent!

There are a lot of FAST young guns in MotoGp!

Also I think Suzuki is ripe for some infighting because Rins is every bit the equal of his World Champion teammate. In fact if he does not dislocate his shoulder at round 1 he probably wins the title. Ifs and buts. Either way, with not much happening in development across the grid because of the pandemic, the Suzukis will be the best overall bike again.

My only complaint is the price. However you get what you pay for. Going to be a cracking season.
Damn I already get ass raped every month from Cox cable and I think they just upped my bill again!
Is there a way to share it like the old days with somebody else?
Pit Row
G-man they have an installment option. That’s what I do. 30 something bucks a month is easier for me to stomach than 170$ which is damn near a new set of tires for my bike.
A buddy here at work wants to share the app, he seems to think it would work but can't watch at the same time.
My questions are
1) Is it like the freaken Peacock App where if you miss the start of qualifying you can't watch from the beginning until it's over and you can't pause or rewind?
2) I have a Firestick on my TV if I buy the app can I watch on my TV and phone if I am away?
Thanks
2.)You can watch on any device that has a web browser, or a device that can have the app installed.
I think you will be ok sharing the subscription, especially if you are both on Cox internet. I have shared my login in the past with my buddy in San Diego without issue.
Watched the Press Conference on the phone and can't wait for the weekend.
Going to a Wedding heading down to Tucson so will be hit and miss on viewing, but will get to watch on Sunday when I get home. Will need to download the app to the BooB tube.
Gonna be an Exciting season and get to finally watch two Americans in Moto2.
18 races--WHOA!
Thanks for the tips. 👍
