Can't be bothered with the wet.
But hey, Rossi looked great for a while.

Roll on 2019 for me

Like all of us you just want fisticuffs between Jorge and Marquez, with teams of Honda mechanics lined up holding the handbags. It will be hilarious.

Watch Yamaha get its shit together and smoke 'em all is my prediction. Or the Ducati now gorgeous Jorje has fixed it.....

I’ll watch it tomorrow.

Yeah it was a completely shit race and an utter lottery. Staying upright was a brilliant achievement.

And it wasn't over 'til the fat lady sang

Fenati has been naughty again. He's apparently been charged with failing to stop for Police.

Hahaha I can't believe some people want to give him another crack at racing. He's a fucking nut job.

I wouldn't be surprised if other riders protest his return. Imagine a rider strike.

Just watched the race - at least I could FFwd to the restart. Rossi crashes again???

They could have red flagged the race a couple of laps earlier. By the time Dovi puts his hand up, you know it must be bad.

i thought it interesting that he crashed the same way losing the rear,though he wasnt the only one!Had me hopes up for awhile I thought Dani was going to come forward.I thought they left it fatr too late,with so many crashes of the same type.

Interesting race, there was some good battling going on despite the excess water falling from the Sky.

Happy for Dani to go out on a solidish result, I get the feeling he'd given up getting the tyres n bike to work for him so wasn't going to take any risks. Still stayed on board when many didn't.
Now he's got millions in the bank, a good looking Mrs and time on his hands so I hope he enjoys his retirement a bit before getting back into it too hard with the KTM stuff. Be interesting to see if he ends up back in the paddock in some capacity or breaks clean after his KTM test duties are done, Stoner says it's hard to keep in shape just for the occasional test.

Speaking of KTM, good to see Pol back in the fray, he was giving MM a hell of a headache, haven't seen that for many years, bet those KTM guys are still hung over. That bike will eventually make it to the front, they've just got a few years hard yards to put in. They now have 3 excellent riders on the bike next year and one that's still got a bit to prove to show he deserves his seat, that alone should bump em ahead with Dani showing them some Honda secrets.

With Rins showing his potential and the Suzuki getting better n better next year is already shaping up to be a good 'un, now all we need is for Aprilia to make another step and it will be a Moto3 race every GP. CHURRR!

Yeah, I noticed he waited until he was in front then put up his hand.

Cheers

2018 Red Bull Rookie Champ.
Met him, his brother (also a Red Bull Rookie Champ)and his Dad at Misano.
A couple of really talented kids, we will be hearing a lot more about them in the future...

Really talented kids who aren't Spanish or Italian too, which the sport needs badly.
