    I think it sux that there is a fucking stupid rule that if a rider has a break out ride, they are screwed by this tyre pressure rule. Motogp really need to sort this shit out.

    Apparently MM backed off the gas a touch thats why AM collected him.

    Martin had a prang, and its not good news.

    Jorge Martin's CT scan has revealed an increase in the pneumothorax he suffered. The Spaniard will have to remain under observation for a few days in the hospital until the pneumothorax resolves.
    Pneumothorax is a medical condition where air collects in the pleural space—the area between the lungs and the chest wall. This air puts pressure on the lung, causing it to partially or fully collapse.

    Coupla rumours from Oxley Bom.

    Acosta to Honda at season's end. No evidence apparently but from multiple sources.

    Kenan Sofuoglu was seen in the MotoGP paddock. The former multiple WSS world champion is currently Toprak Razgatioglu's manager. The rumour has Razgatioglu moving to Honda in Superbikes next season then to MotoGP when the new rules come in for '27.

    It'll hurt to laugh thats for sure
    11 ribs jeepers I would have thought the airbag would have helped more.
    Been down twice with my tech 5 and it was great, I won't even ride road without one now.

    Yes, that's what did the damage. He would have probably been fine otherwise. He can't fly home until the lung reinflates (I don't know the medical term?), probably months before he can race again.

    Years ago tucked the front while leading and got ran over ... a couple of ribs paid the price. weeks later they'd set and didn't hurt any more. then driving into early morning sun i sneezed - that was worse than getting run over .

    Italian press claim to have the details. Acosta will have the cash. NZ$172 minion and change over three years.

    Jeepers how could I miss that Thanks makes me feel a bit safer
    I bought a tech 7 for the track as Tech 5 is on its last blowup @ $500 per time, kept my tech 5 for the road only.
    Secondly you can now change the canisters your self 4 times on the 7 so it is way more cost efective.

    Acosta might go to Honda if Zarco keeps doing his thing. Overall maybe the wakeup call of MM leaving did Honda a favor.
    Its big money but I'd guess winning motovates Acosta more I reckon.

    I watched the full race tonight. it was good, I wish I hadn't known that Marc won. But it was obvious he was managing the tyres.

    There can't be that much wrong with the KTM if Mav can beat all of the Ducatis except Marc.

    The tyre pressure rule is just ridiculous. It has to go, what a fucking joke it made of the post race. Or are Dorna so stupid they don't realize this? It nearly cost Marc the first race, I was amazed he was able to manage it.
