    I still think he'll be up there in the title race,if he can manage his problems. (esspecially with everyone else pretty much the same in talent and recording wins. )

    Go yamaha , and go #20 Fabio Q.
    Well, he made it through a weekend with no crashing, so if he can maintain that for a bit.. there's a chance

    I'll have a look at COTA tomorro on ch3 highlights.

    Sounds like he showed a bit of the old grit ?

    If it weren't for flashbacks...I'd have no memory at all..

    did he what...he overtakes riders so easily(he makes it look easy) compared with many of the others .He overtook about 14 riders to get where he did,and you can see in some footage on youtube that the Honda is NOT too much faster than many of the otherbikes

    His interview after the race is worth a read. Sounds like he stopped over analysing and just rode the bike.

    No one else can ride like that at the moment. Mir and Quartararo can be quite aggressive but their overtakes are not as clean.

    With the exception of Mir and Miller. Those two have 'a thing' going on.

    Mir was really rough last year as he was frustrated at the lack of power, Rins didn't have to barge dudes off line though.

    Watching Rins overtake all of the Ducs bar one was almost as good as the Marquez ride from last. Rins may yet surprise us all and win the championship.

    Dunno if any of you have seen this, but MM when he was testing his eye before COTA was recorded on a track by a youtuber.

    MM on his 600 and the other guy on a zx10rr



    That's one angry bumble bee you can hear lol

    Yeah and he has some fancy cameras lol

    Does go to show how fast a 600 can be though..

    You kinda get the impression that if MM was on a 250, you'd still see him in the mirrors lol.

    The YT algorithm suggested this for me today.. bloody hell.
    Same channel has a video showing how MM kept FQ at bay... it looks to me like he knew where he would get passed each time and just let it go then came back at him patiently.. and carried more speed at the same time.

    Most of those were in a straight line. Shock horror. HRC top bike is faster than most bikes on the grid.

    Most of the backmarkers use the foot off the peg strategy. Can't see how that actually helps.

    Does make me want to go racing again. I'm sure I'd clean him up.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.
