    Yes, it was pretty good, although I would have preferred MM v Acosta - I reckon that would have been more exciting

    Barcelona confirmed for the final round

    Yeah, I reckon they confirmed too early.

    Track's Ok - higher up than the city - but spectators and teams still have to have accomodation
    and get to and from the track.
    And Valencia is getting the priority assistance.

    Shouldn't have gone to Spain while this shit was happening IMO.

    go back to Philip Island FTW! Get MM back in there to stir up Pecco and Jorge!

    Go kart track and xr100s.
    Acosta would do the business. VR46 guys would be hard to beat as well.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    I dunno, have you seen that video of the VR46 Ranch a few years back where a bunch of GP guys turned up to dirt track? MM was holding himself back because he was WAY faster than Rossi hehe - he had to let the old fella have a chance. It was quite good.. he is VERY fast on the dirt

    Marc also arrived on a full works bike compared to off the shelf equipment at the ranch.

    Yeah they all run their own number and branding, as to the level of factory trickness for the rest of the bikes I don't know. Marc certainly isn't dumb though, the guy is as sharp and shrewd as anyone.

    As you see the guy change and evolve over the years you certainly realise he's not your normal kinda person.. If he was into finance he'd probably be Elon Musk or something

    looks like lights out at 3am ... i'll set the alarm and watch this one live. martin could wrap it up if he wins, but if i was him i'd be keeping out of trouble foremost.

    even if he doesnt finish he will still have 12 points on Pecco,which means he can come 4th even if pecco wins the grandprix. Its conna take a dnf in th grandprix i reckon for Martin not to win.
