Marc Marquez is no longer seen as an “alien” by Fabio di Giannantonio.
Marquez enters this weekend’s French MotoGP at Le Mans hopeful of a first victory on a Ducati, after insisting his adaptation to a new bike is complete.
But Di Giannantonio, who rides the same GP23 Ducati as Marquez, has suggested that the eight-time world champion is not striking fear into his rivals anymore.
VR46’s Di Giannantonio told Motosprint that he notices how Gresini’s Marquez rides the Ducati when on-track together.Quote :
Lol when you can keep up Giannantonio, you can say that !!!!!!!
You'd never go hungry with Nigella Gaz.
If it weren't for flashbacks...I'd have no memory at all..

Just takes a few minutes on the phone to download, then I watch on the TV using Chromecast. Probably a good idea to use a VPN.
I'd prefer not to do it, but it's either this or put up with the second rate coverage on ThreeNow.

I'm doing a shuffle between who has it at the best times. Watched quality on 3now, downloaded a torrent off Reddit for the sprint this morning. Still deciding if I'll get up or stay up for 3now at midnight or another torrent as 3now didn't have the sprint up in time this morning. I guess the $240 sub takes all this away lol
Riding to Napier on the morning so need some shuteye 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!!

Flippin epic GP though.. MM with a clear track chasin PB and Martin was .5 of a second faster. MM said that with new tyres they are all about the same, its only as they wear (I guess due to styles/setups/skills they all wear differently) that some riders get an advantage. Jorge Martin is quite amazing in this race, especially the last 3 laps.

I am still going month by month on Motogp.com .Have to keep an eye o the dates cos they will auto renew if you dont untick that .I will not renew for the summer break of ourse. At some point i will jump o the reduced rates as the season nears the end. will have to give tv3 now a look.Yes MM 13th to podium on Saturday and Sunday .He seems to cope with worn tyres quite well. And Acosta was human this weekend.
That was a good race, considering the problems with aero, overheating front tyres, etc. that are meant to prevent close racing!
Ducati's problem is that they will want to keep Marquez and Martin on Ducatis and not go to Aprilia or KTM. My guess is that may mean Martin in the factory team and Marquez and Bastianini on the latest spec bikes somehow.
How did Acosta manage to crash like that and not take anyone else out?

So, Miller is possibly going to Honda, and apparently KTM/Redbull have approached Martin. He rode for them in Moto2, so unless Ducati have offered him a spot on the downlow I reckon he's likely gone. He hinted at it in the press conference.
Personally, I think MM would be great on a KTM - more front wheel riding and back slidey.
Also apparently Honda have made a huge offer for Vinales too, so there might be an aprilia option oo, maybe even 2 spots if Aleix retires (I think he should)
I think though Ducati wont change the factory team but they'll give MM a latest spec bike. Martin to KTM and next year will be hella exciting.

Well that's easy. Pramac and possibly Gresini is going to Yamaha because, business. So the GP25s will be offered to the next Ducati team. Then Maquez can ride for Rossi's team. . . . Oh. Right.
Well Martin can. And MM team with Peco. Ah.
Right. So Freddie Spenser will squeeze on his old leathers and Make Honda Great Again.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
Pit Beirer has said that he doesn't think Marc is a realistic option for KTM as he wouldn't want to change bikes again. He has also put Miller and Fernandez on notice, saying he'd like to keep them both but their performance is lacking.
So KTM will probably be looking for 2 riders

I'm not neceessarily an MM Fan but you gotta give him credit for being up there with Bagnia and Martin.
That move on Bagnia on the last lap was pure class.
Bagnia was pissed of (as you would be) and the fact it was clean as made it hurt more I reckon.
MM quite is stunning this year this year
Love to see him on a factory bike and stay with this team. I'd give them and Pramac one factory bike each.
