...my girl woke me about half way through Moto2 and said I should go to bed...instead I went outside for ten minutes and froze myself awake, in very little clothing, ...that kind of worked until the GP started...by the time it was over I couldn't close my eyes at all...what a race and what a result...

Like wise, my jaw dropped so many times during that race.

I don't know what would have been better, a dry battle at the end between Pedrosa, Lorenzo and Marquez or what we had, all I know was it was dramatic and I am still buzzing. I like what one of the commentators said about the racing, you forget about everything going on in your life for 40 minutes.

Aye. There was no real need to be trying to do that right there and then. Only himself to blame.

Sadly he is showing a very simillar mental make up to Wayne Gardener ie crash or win.

Maybe Miller was intent on staying in front because the Honda has an edge in speed? I just had a look at the web site but can't see what happened at Race Direction.
Webb probably wasn't in a position to do much, had he penalised Marquez he wouldn't have made it out of Spain alive.

Stunning MGP race and once again Jorge showed the depth of his character - remembering what the early part of the season was like. That would have ruined a lesser man so I have to say I am impressed by the guy.

Also glad neither of those ugly crashes resulted in worse injuries.

Was going to ask what you thought there Pete.
Agree with you. Nothing in it, tho Rolf Harris got hold of it and did it to death.
Webb probably got them together to cool them off a bit.
Watched the whole moto3 but have copied the rest for tonite.

If you're gonna lean on someone expect to eat asphalt if you touch. Normally always the guy on the outside that goes down in that situation. Not like Marquez picked it up at all.

IIRC from the aerial replay Marquez was pretty much through & there was plenty of dry line left. Different perspective from the track camera. Determined racing to my amateur eyes. Shutting the door while the horse was going through it.

Without seeing it more than the couple of times live last night...I don't think Millar was even trying to shut the door as such. Either way...tough titties.

Compulsory stand-down period after being knocked out?
Or do these guys have different brains to everyone else?

Read FB like a dumbass and learnt of the GP result just before I started watching it. But ho - what a race!

Some lucky people there too. I thought MM was game to keep a hold of the throttle as he slid out into the trap!

Miller - well, it's almost like he didn't realise that Lex was still inside him, tried to tighten his line and then, in an ohnosecond, dropped the thing. I mean sure they touched but it he stacked it good and proper for just a touch.
