Lorenzo reminds me of Eddie Lawson. Just bangs out perfect lap after perfect lap! Be a cunt of a man to try and race!

Well the Marquez incident looked just like that... a racing incident. The Guy had just saved a high side & when he landed back on the seat ,to me he looked like he was about at a 45 deg. angle to his original line....so he basically got spat back into the corner.
I think wotshisface figured there was no way Marquez was going to save it & he committed himself to the inside & bingo...
I think the save by Marquez was purely luck.

Apparently the Race Committee penalised Marquez a minute for reckless riding (as he was already on a yellow card), and the FIM over-ruled it on appeal. Race Direction will not be happy. Marquez would be well advised to behave from now on...

He's certainly had more 'incidents' than anyone I can think of for a long time.

How I see it too..............

Marquez would have been so bloody distracted then pleased and surprised that he was still on the bike that all he could think of was getting racing again. He is pretty dodgy though - but that could be read as 'competitive'. And that's why he is a possible future alien.

Am watching the three races this afternoon. I always record and view all three races.

What a great piece of slo mo photography of the eight Moto3 bikes going through that corner. Would've made a great still picture.

Pol had been glued to his rear tyre for the whole race.
Where did Marquez think he was when he shut the gate?

He's entirely self absorbed... nobody else counts at all. Like I said... a punch in the face leads to zen enlightenment. Ianone's the guy for the job.

If not...the big boys will next year quick smart.

Stunning footage (watched it last night) those slow mo frames are awesome.
Good to see Lorenzo putting that Yamaha on the top step (where it belongs)
Marquez may be an Alien in waiting but but he needs some race craft/etiquette errr... shall we say...drilled into him. Perhaps out the back of the paddock somewhere so he doesnt get distracted

That overtake chop thing he's got going on is going to kill someone.
The 'take out' was a racing incident from my perspective, he was a passenger on that bike for a while.

Did he pick up that habit in the 125/250f's as they seem to all do it esp weaving down the straights , even heard rumors they'd bang the clutch lever while passing.
