I also heard that Bautista is riding one of those fancy "Aprilia Ducatis"

I thought the Muppet said that, but couldn't assed rewinding to be sure. I'm sure he was referring to pettrucci's lap as Pedrosa's too.

So it is true, Triumph to power Moto2 from 2019.
A 765cc triple in race tune developed from the new Street Triple.
Changing from Honda due to them pulling back from, or even totally away from, making the 600cc Supersport bike.

I seem to recall the Honda 600 engines did over a million kilometres of racing with only 2 failures. Here's hoping Triumph can do similar, there is a potential for embarrassment.

Oh my God amazing sponsorship! Di Giannantonio celebrating and congratulating Migno immediately after a tough battle! Now that's amazing! Will lookout for his name in the future.

What a Moto2 race! I'm thrilled for Pasini, I remember him having an awful run of luck about 10 years ago and being reduced to tears. This will have made up for a lot of that. Brilliant!

...fuck yeah...hot stuff that last lap...

[EJK]

Won't be surprised if they banned yellow smoke next season!

[roogazza]

Hondas had a real good day hahaha.
Doocatis so fast in the last part of that long straightaway.

Three really good races for me ?

Epic race. Dovi smashed it n showed them who's boss. I noticed midway through the race when he was tailing MV that he must have dropped to a fuel saving map to make the race distance, once he turned up the juice though, epic.

MM did worse than I thought but no where near as bad as DP, wonder if he had a dodgy front tyre? Or maybe the hard was the wrong choice. Him and CC will have to kiss n make up, unlucky for both

It was really pissing down here for a lot of the race and I was thinking I'd lose the picture any minute but there was no problem. Until the last lap - most of which I missed. On balance I'll still count that as lucky.

It's fair to assume none of us had a crystal ball that predicted that finishing order. Was pleased for Petrux and Dovi, that would have meant a lot to them.

I was pretty sure on Dovi and NEARLY put some coin down on Petrux for a podium before the race but something stopped me.

Italian fans are the best by far, glad the had some home heros to sing along too. I was singing too!

Great racing, enormous ride from Vale in such pain. Congrats Dovi, never looked like getting beaten

[BMWST?]

What a race!
Lorenzo leads !Dovi finally gets a result he truly deserves.I think the grip was less than ideal.and most were having grip issues. I was waiting for Dovi to drop back with the effects of the food poisoning.At one point i though Petrucci was going to take it,then when Vinales passed Petrucci i thought he was going to close in more on Dovi
Its a funny sport we all follow.Who wouldve thought a couple of years ago that a out of date satelite ducati would be too fast for a honda on the front straight?.And Petrucci?!I think i would have been less surprised if Pirro did that well!Petrucci seems to relish the less than ideal grip situations cos he goes well in the wet too.So i am thinking the grip wasnt quite there which explains why Lorenzo dropped back and why the other Hondas were poor?
However i think the development of the Ducati,for Lorenzo, is making it a better bike at last.

.At one point i though Petrucci .

I thought that too. Bloody glad he didn't though, as I had coin on Dovi. Huge congrats to him, rode like a champ. Bautista gave the haters something to chew on too.
