MotoGP 2016

Yeah, great ride from VR46. From the moment he hit the front, just looked completely in control. Lorenzo with a look that could kill as he got off the bike. Not a happy camper. Hard luck to Dovizioso. He just can't buy a finish right now.

Can't wait for Mugello in a month's time.
 
I missed the Moto3 race but have just caught the replay on YouTube. Simply insane ride. Edge of the seat stuff from Binder! Definitely going to start watching Moto3 on a Sunday before the main race from now on! Here's the race if you haven't seen it.

Marc Marquez :

I pushed behind Lorenzo , but i tried one , two , three , then i thought 16 points is good for the championship and those two guys were faster today

Lets see if he has really tamed himself. Last season he would have attacked and possibly crashed trying to overtake Rossi.
 
Last season he crashed five times not including the crash "induced" by Rossi. I saw three of the crashes and he was chasing for victory. If he had settled for second and third in all his five crashes he would have won the WC in the penultimate race.
 
Great race by Rossi.
Just too good for Lorenzo and Marquez.
Next race is at Le Mans on 08 May.

Yeah how weird was that! One of the more bizarre accidents I've seen :wtf:

The Ducatis need to sort themselves out now. They've thrown away a potential podium in almost every race.
 
This Binder lad has some serious potential.

Post race he said he realised he couldn't get away so he sat back, watched his opposition and figured out where he was faster. Made his move and defended it like a champ.

Our own ''Doctor'' in development? Very impressive to show that type of maturity and mental capacity so early in your career.

Also recognizing he had a problem in turn 1 where he was passed almost every time...

I like the way Fenati was warned on his pit board about Turn 11... and guessed what happened at turn 11 :D
 
I have high hopes for Binder! (both of them, in fact).
I didn't see the race yesterday but I heard he had another very close victory.
 
He has the potential. Not long ago the same could be said for Brad as well.
