Well, the speculation can now end. I'm going to be sad to see him go. I enjoyed watching him ride but he hasn't been the same rider this last year or two. Here's hoping he can bow out with a strong run in to the end of the season.

Pedrosa announces imminent retirement from MotoGP

Spain's Dani Pedrosa, three-times a world MotoGP championship runner-up, announced on Thursday he will retire at the end of the season.

The 32-year-old Honda pilot, who won the 125cc category in 2003 and 250cc in 2004 and 2005, currently sits in 12th spot of the MotoGP standings ahead of this weekend's German race in Sachsenring.

One of the most successful riders of all time, Pedrosa has the third most podiums and 54 wins over his 18-year career.

Pedrosa found out in June he would be replaced at Honda next season by Jorge Lorenzo, who signed from Ducati.

"Next year I won't compete in the championship, I'll finish my career in MotoGP this season," Pedrosa said.

"It's a decision I've thought about for a long time and it's a hard decision because this is the sport I love but despite having good opportunities to keep racing, I feel like I don’t live racing with the same intensity as before and I now have different priorities in my life."

Marquez 9 poles in 9 consecutive years and he snatched the circuit MotoGP lap record back after Petrucci broke Marquez's previous record a couple laps earlier.

Binder is gunning it now. Love watching him ride on worn tyres. He rodeos the schit out of that back tyre...
 
Mir is right on him. This is going to be 2 laps of nail biting racing.

Binder is holding it like a real pro.
