46 second and 25 fourth. Hope they can put it to Márquez............ Does Simon Crae bother you guys or just me? He sounds like he’s jerking off when he’s doing a interview. He bugs the shit out me. He needs to get the fucking words out of his mouth.

They can race him but MM93 seems to pull out that last lap or so. The Yamahas looked better though, 3,4,5.

in the BT Sport coverage they had an interview with Moto2 leader, and next year Pramac MotoGP rider Pecco Bagnia.
And afterward it was mentioned that he'd told them that Pramac had offered him a place for 2018 which HE declined, (obviously), the question is, who was out? Jack or (the new Ducati factory rider) Danilo? Or perhaps even Jorge! with Danilo shuffling across a year earlier!!!

Well, no Lorenzo to stir the pot, but a least Marc is starting on the second row. Might forestall the inevitable.

Hopefully Dovi can put it to him...... Did you guys see the article on superbikeplanet? They are saying Beach might go flat tracking and that Mees made more than Beaubier this year. Yoshimura Suzuki are going to have Elias and Debise. Sucks they didn’t replace Hayden with an American.

American road racing is trying to regain where it was in the 70's and 80's and I'll be the first to say, I don't know what they need to do to get it back. Without moderate support from all the manufacturers I just don't think it'll thrive. I dig their telecasts too ... it just sucks.

Ok Marquez... a bit of overdoing it in celebration for my taste. I'm an old fuddy duddy though.

I disagree that American Road Racing is trying to regain where it was in the 70s and 80s. I would say it's well below a lame attempt. America has little interest in road racing sadly. It's really unbelievable the amount of energy the rest of the world puts into that sport compared to us.

Damn shame what we did to the sport here in the US. Look how long it's taken IndyCar to come back from that Fiasco. Everybody in the rest of the world practically rides motorcycles and bicycles. No such thing in this country. Drove the manufacturers out of the game with stupid rules that wouldn't conform to everybody else. I don't see how we can possibly get it back. Even Daytona which used to be a World Championship round is meaningless these days.

I was looking at my 1974 Daytona 200 program the other day. Amazing how many world level foreign riders were in the field that year including Agostini.

MotoGP3 got cut off by a football game so only saw the end, still amazing. Amazing that Zarco walked away.

Interesting review of little dani as a test rider.

http://www.superbikeplanet.com/green-flag-red-flag-dani-pedrosa-ktm-tes…
A lot of valid points in that article. I still think Dani's experience has to help in some way. He's still a better Rider than anyone KTM has had so far. I don't believe the comments about Hondas seamless transmission are true. I've read articles seen drawings the principles are well-known. Yamaha and other manufacturers lease rights to the design. Hodaka had one back in the 60s.

Maybe there running the big boys before MotoGP2.
