    Major blonde moment for Martin with that line/braking point... poor Bez getting cleaned out too. i guess we wont see much of Martin now for the rest of the year. i was thinking he might of done well at phillip island on the aprillia but we'll never know now. hopefully we have a good race later today

    Marc is fastest in morning warm up - copied Bagnia's settings over night? (I know peccos got the 24 forks etc)

    Really good to see Bez was 3rd fastest in warm up. Looks like he did not get too beaten up by Martins takeout yesterday.

    Two Hondas in the top 10 for warm up. I wonder if MM after following Mir for so long in Saturdays sprint was thinking "This Honda has improved a lot, wonder how much Honda would fork out to have me back?"

    Dunno if marc was looking after his tyre but several times Mir just dropped him accelerating out of the corners,although i think marc was off line because of his prvious attack. Gonna be interesting to see if Pecco can keep up that pace. I am pretty sure we will have a new champion tonight

    MM: "I am at peace".

    He was catching Pecco once he had clear air..

    They are calling him the GOAT.

    He has achieved his goal after 6 years he should be at peace .

    Now Pecco is on fire and MM at peace and well deserved he didn't just win he decimated the opposition this season : )

    Be an interesting remaining few races to see of his fire gets relite next time he puts his helmet on.

    For me greatest of our time but another championship would unarguably earn him the GOAT status no one could deny him - even Rossi fans.

    Who knows whether Pecco will be as fast in the next race, lol.

    MM is now both the youngest and oldest champion, and has the longest career, but I think the "more than a number" thing was quite correct, its not just about how many/much he has won, but how and what he has gone through to get here - I think that is what makes him the best. Alex said "people have only seen 10% of his comeback".

    Apparently MM had trouble hitting his marks on the last lap because he was crying so much..

    “Six years ago, I didn't know what suffering was. I just tasted the glory, all my career, since 2010.

    “It's true that I had some injuries, but it was always like 3 months, 4 months recovery and win again.


    “So when you have four years, with four different surgeries on the arm. Also, I broke other bones during that time, and had double vision twice.


    “It was super difficult.


    “We are humans. I have a talent, and other people will have another talent, but we are humans and just trying to do our best.”
    He still wants to win... and he can still make that bike do things others cant... although I would have to say Mir had that honda doing some crazy stuff - looked like he was riding on ice.
