    Qatar is always a bit special. Not least as the paintwork looks Bangin in the floodlight.

    But I think you will find I predicted it all. With enough vague comments I'll favour and lean on a few until my insights look like Madam Gypsini.

    I don't do lotto numbers but for the right fee I can give you stock predictions for 19 yrs out.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    The next track is even more of a one off. If it's finished... Here's hoping.

    They think it will be finished, but what will be finished? There is some concern they will have fixed the worst bits but the rest of the track isnt too great either.. or something like that. Supposedly it needs completely rebuilding.

    Apparently the track designers recommended some fancy pants grade of chip, but they decided not to use it and now its fohked...

    Going to be an interesting race going off the fact no one has raced there, Brad Binder looked fohking good in testing though as did Rins, Pol etc. So I'll be putting my money on them early on whilst the odds are good, then the beast is going to come along and ruin my predictions...

    At this point I am picking Rossi for the win, because that's about as likely as guessing who's going to take it on the day, lol

    Yep. A couple more finishes like that and he will psych himself out. Again.
    If he can't get the bike to work he can't have much future in MotoGP.

    He needs to be fired. He's done. He's costing money and wasting time making bike changes to suit him when he's not going to deliver.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    It's good of you to say something nice about him. My favourite memory of him is when he was riding 125s and Paris Hilton had just bought the team and at the launch he was just flat out looking straight down her plunging neckline. Speaking of flat...

    This time tho he is not flat out blaming the bike and engineers.
    At least he has said he has to look at his teammates data and try and change.
    You guys are harsh after one race LOL
    On a Motorcycle you're penetrating distance, right along with the machine!! In a car you're just a spectator, the windshields like a TV!!

    It's not one race though. It's the last 3 years. He brings nothing of value to the team he's in. If he isn't handed a perfect bike he can't do well and he doesn't know how to adapt to a bike that is a poofteenth different from what he expected.

    Someone I've wanted to see succeed for years. If he didn't have bad luck, he'd have no luck at all.

    Just another McPhee year really. As James D says above - If he fell into a pit of nipples he would come up sucking his thumb.

    This was his last chance in Moto3 and, sadly, I don't see him getting a seat in Moto2 unless this year is exceptional.
    The best way to forget all your troubles is to wear tight underpants.
