What a Malaysian qualy session. Some topsy-turvy positions for the championship contenders. Looking forward to seeing what's Brad can do if he gets a good start.

Just watched it now... wow. Drama... almost as if Netflix wrote it..haha

The pressure telling for the championship contenders
 
Two cracking races so far! Hope MotoGP follows suit. Disappointing to see Ogura tip off. In hindsight, he'll know it was a dumb and risky move but it probably very well cost him the championship.

Good luck to Ducati next year in keeping the peace between Bagnaia and Bastianini. It is going to be fireworks of the highest degree.

I know right... and Beast has looked faster than Pecco, no love lost. No wonder Pecco wanted Jack to stay

Those 5 points from a few races ago might come back to bite the Dukes
 
I hope Fabio has a huge bonus from Yamaha coz man has been carrying that team with one hand tied behind his back. They gave him a knife in a gun fight and he's still standing

For sure! Everytime he tips that bike into a corner, it looks like he's about to go down, such is the way he's pushing.

There was talk earlier about Yamaha completely redesigning their engine into a V configuration from an inline 4, just to catch up with the Ducatis. That sounds like the ultimate admission that they have a dog of a machine, yet Quartararo had delivered on it.
 
Gonna a big race weekend in Valencia in 2 weeks, Moto2 and MotoGP titles on the line. Any takers on the winners?

Fernandez and Bagnaia for me. Ogura really screwed the pooch this past Sunday.

I want to say Pecco BUT he has a tendency to also screw the pooch - gonna go for Fabio. I would also like Ogura to win - KTM has been 'too dominant'
 
So Quarataro fastest in Valencia FP1 with Bagnaia down in 17th (only 0.6 seconds slower). Brad fired in the third fastest time right at the end, less than 1/10th of a second slower.
 
Ogura crashed out (again) handing the Moto2 title to Fernandez

Yeah. He was forced into pushing so his demise was hardly surprising. Congrats to Fernandez though. He rode a strong and measured season.
 
What a second place. Argh, if he had just passed Quartararo a lap or two earlier!

So stoked for Bagnaia and Ducati. Been a long wait for the Bologna Bullets.

Crazy on track scenes.

Shame for Fabio, sent into a gunfight with a knife but still rode like a beast

Brad with the pace late on and lovely for Suzuki to go out with a win
