    Hitting that at over 100 mph would be like razor.


    If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.

    I noticed Georges winglet braking off in one piece and sliding ahead of him, if he landed on top of that... Dangerous...

    Same could be said of any broken bike piece.

    That would have been great to watch! But I reckon Crazy Joe would have tried a Hail Mary overtake 20 m from the line and brought them both down.

    Better pull those deadly spinning rubber doughnut things off. Imagine landing on one of those!

    Was more the fact that it was a relatively low speed low side that generally doesn't have too much shit falling off the bike from, why add something that is guaranteed to break off? But noted.
    And for any of these guys if someone told them that if they sawed an arm off they could go 2 tenths quicker, their arm would be off before you could say see you on the podium.

    I would have said the least he could do was give Dovi a hand to push his...

    "Oh, I'm sorry, Dovi. I do seem to have fallen off my bike and knocked you off yours as well. What a silly chump I am! Look, I'd like to make it up to you, so why don't you sit on your bike while I push it over the line. You might as well get one or two points for the old team, eh what? No, no, really I insist. It's the least I can do." [Exit stage right to the tune of "Two Little Boys".]

    I wonder how that would translate into Italian. Not at all I should think.

    Oh , mi dispiace , Dovi . Mi sembra di essere caduto dalla bici e si buttato giù la vostra. Che stupido idiota che sono! Guarda, mi piacerebbe farlo a voi , quindi perché non ti siedi sulla tua moto mentre io spingo oltre la linea . Si potrebbe anche ottenere uno o due punti per la vecchia squadra , eh cosa ? No, no , davvero insisto . E ' il minimo che possa fare.

    Good read thanks. It looked like the old Marquez watching him back it into Turn 1.

    Just seen the race;
    So why was MM not black flagged for having part of his bike coming off (camera) that could have caused an accident?

    It posed fuck all threat, he had to change bikes anyway, and it wasn't his fault it was hanging off.

    MCN seems very confident that JL is going to Ducati next year. Hopefully Yamaha grab Vinales and we see his true potential.
