    I kinda thought Pol was going to be the next Pol. Um, well he was showing such promising rides on the humble KTM. Buuutt. . .

    Goes to show how fickle this tyre vs chassis, suspension, crank dynamics, hair gel, and ECU mixture is.

    One guess as to who spent some time cosying up with Marc Marquez and Valentino Rossi in Clinica Mobile last weekend???

    Hint: Cormac Buchanan.

    Oh, was that too much of a hint?

    Little shit.

    While he has since made a correction to his statement - his problem may well be that Yamaha shares his sentiments!

    You can't help but be impressed by his absolute mastery.

    Y'know, I reckon only people looking to create a beat up would have interpreted that as meaning anything to do with Yamaha.
    When I saw the quotation I only ever thought about his earlier period in M3 when he quit the team during the season. Only to come crawling back?? (If I recall correctly).
    Doubtful if he even go to root Paris!! That would have been a shame...... Mmmmmm.....

    FP3 Vale!! Vale!!! Vale!!!!

    But anyway......

    Nice to see a crowd in attendance.

    Reports that Rossi has found speed. I hope it's real speed and not just speed that takes him from 20th to 10th.

    Fabio is a fucking weapon. Goes to show they knew what they were doing when they let him into moto3 early.
    Good shit.

    Iker finally got a rocket up his bum too now his seats 100% on the line. If they do drop him I hope they pop him into the Moto2 team at least to give him another chance to move back up, goes to show how important the years in moto2 are.

    Olivera looking good for another podium too I think, here's hoping they can disrupt Fabio enough to stop him running away, not looking like it at this stage though.

    Looking forward to the race, gunna be epic I reckon

    Agreed about Fabio he seems really in tune with his bike ATM.

    I'm hoping Morbidelli will do well like to see him get some reward

    Like to see the likable Miller get somewhere but they say tyre wear is an Issue there so maybe Ducati will fade?
    Everyone got a laugh about his inter change with MM start of FP3.

    Zarco is riding well to deserves a good result.

    Good to see MM bullshit in FP3 didn't work out and infact gave Pol the advantage for qually which knocked him out
    I'm Guessing Pol is regretting his decision to change teams to Honda.

    Fabio might run away with it, I think he will ride it the same as last race.
    I'm picking Morbid to come good at the end with wildcard Suzuki.
    But love to see Miller shove it up them all.

    Live tonight whoohooo Moto3 at 9pm MotoGP 10:25

    Go Vale !!!! lol us pensioners need to stick together !

    He has had some great rides at MontMello. First saw him there in 2005.....(when Zaus turned an M1 into a ball of metal).

    Then there was that great scrap with Horhay (whatever year it was ?) with a last corner move that really was up there for the pass of a century.

    Fingers and toes crossed for Valentino. xxxxx

    You'd never go hungry with Nigella Gaz.
    If it weren't for flashbacks...I'd have no memory at all..

    Yup, if it were me I'd be like "Keep up motherfucker", lick the stamp, cross out the return to sender address and send it.

    Quatararo.

    Black flag situation?

    Black/orange flag situation?

    Opinions?

    You'd be black flagged for an undone helmet strap correct? Because in the event of an accident the required safety equipment wouldn't do its job. Watching those last laps, well I'm no praying man but I was hoping to high heaven he did not have a crash because that could've been potentially very horrific.

    So if you'd get a black flag for an undone helmet strap, then yes I would agree with a black flag for both the leathers being compromised and the removal of the chest protector.
