MotoGP 2016

We're all aware that the satellite bikes are generally a year old (at least) and don't get all the newest go-fast bits. I was unaware until recently that they don't rev as high as the factory bikes either. Any satellite rider scrapping with the factory bikes is doing a great job.

yeah that was great info thanks yes after rosi did his engine
said it was the valves . was 500 rpm or so u reminded me.



The Silverstone race was run later in the day than normal to avoid a clash with F1. The later time meant I didn't stay up but I woke at about 4.30AM, so brewed up some strong coffee and stayed up until the action was over.

Bring on Misano and hopefully an earlier start.

God i was tired after was held up i throw the towel in.

Missed moto 2 race must droped of . still got it recorded.

FP sessions are very close , mitchys have supplied some different tyres and they're aggreeing with alot of the riders , some good consistant fast laps
are being put down.

No Andrea Iannone this weekend after a crash in FP1 - back injuries although he did manage to walk away seemingly ok.

I think that if Crutchlow was just coming good because he started later in life, it would be progressive. He's had a confidence boost and he is riding with it.

I was waiting for him to crash the whole race. Well done to him for a fantastic result though.

Yeah reminds me wayne gardner once got his confidence
He was winning races . once you win one .
maybe his just comfortable certianly more relaxed.

The pundits say the Yamaha has the edge on the Honda at Misano and Lorenzo has found his mojo. Then again MM and pedro may not read what the pundits say.

There was a little excitement between ESA, Rossi, and Mike Webb. ESA should perhaps be a little less outspoken, comments like those can bite one on the arse.

Dani for the win.

That would make 8 new (sort of) winners in 8 races. That would make my weekend and really do in the heads of the bookies setting odds for the next race.

Been a good weekend so far for JL and he deserves his pole position breaking his own record,
VR second with MV third.

Michelle Piro has been given AI's ride and he also tried out a new rear wheel that has covers over
the spokes (so to speak).

There were better pictures but this one gives the idea. The wheel is interpreted as Gigi showing Dorna his middle finger.

Ii sounded as though Pirro qualified for Q2 but had to go thorough Q1 because he had changed to Iannone's bikes.
And Ducati were concerned that Stoner might upset the factory riders by outperforming them. I doubt Dovi feels any better about it 'only' being Pirro.

There was much chatter on the 'Net about Lorenzo running off track during his record setting lap. Apparently the rules say that both wheels must be over the line to exceed track limits. Mike Webb told David Emmett that Race Direction have a camera directly in line with the track edge at that point and they could they see exactly what happened. Lorenzo was adjudged to be within limits.

And more heart than head:

VR
JL
MM
MV
MP

I'll be very surprised if MV can hack it in the high temps on the Suzuki tonight...

Well, I'd have put CC in there as he's now the top "independent" rider but he feels he needs to do a "banzai" at the start to get near the front, which is a worry.

And I did like this...

[roogazza]

I was hoping we'd be back to normal and so it has proved with the weather fine.
No bloody pit stops or stop starts or bike changes,just good hard racing,please.

a Qual position of 7th for CC,as I said back to normal !!~!~!~!
Banzai boy will biff it on which lap ???

Go Valentino !

I'm going with ....

Well yes but honestly i feel you can only devolop to the max
for one riding stlye all though yamaha seems suit alot riders.

I feel giving Rossi the best treatment not as blanant thing.
Just because he brings alot to the sport.

Also the oem control cpu hasint helped honda at all
plus with tire change as well . its been great for sport
as made things . very even . everone learning ever race.

thank god not that boring 800cc class that becoame so
boring.

In moto3 i might be dumb ass but why dont they have min
lap time thing in quif there banging on about riders . slowing down to wait for a tow.
