    Well apart from broken foot MM has a screw loose (who knew?)
    And that's also the reason Maverick has been absent.

    Thinking some sort of nylok on the other side. . .?

    And maybe some loctite would not go astray

    Clearly their big nuts are secured and staying in position, maybe working a little too well!

    Catching up on Le Mans and just watched Q1. You have to love MotoGP, so much is still down to the rider. F1 is just a joke with the hybrids, check out Murph's comments on Sky.

    Well, that was a demolition derby! And after all that, more tyre pressure bullshit!

    Alex has a broken collar bone and a light fracture of one vertebrata, and Zarcos injuries are torn knee ligaments and a sore neck. Both riders getting off lightly considering the severity of the crashes. Alex's crash was one of the most destructive ones I can remember seeing for a long time. They never did show the full crash reply on TV3 Coverage in replays, it was the end of it where you see what looked like Alexs bike flying through the air in many, many parts! Yikes! The riders have again asked the organizers to move the start line closer to the first corner. Wondering what it will take for the organizers to get that done?

    Yeah, they showed it on the motomundo's source. Acosta's bike died, and Alex clipped the back wheel, but he had, in that microsecond moved a fraction to the right, which probably made a bad thing slightly less bad. They showed it from Alex's onboard and Acosta's.. it happened so so fast, unreal.

    That AM crash was bloody scary and I'm glad they choose not to show the fullcrash. Most racers do not want to see the full drama, in slomo thats for sure
    2 restarts one nobodies fault the other a Zarco mistake. we have seen more red falgs in one race than I dunno hopw many seasons LOL.
    Not sure if I am keen on that weaving down the straight to the inside white line I was hoping noone would get punted onto the grass being in the lead riders blind spot
    I do feel for AM. He did nothing wrong and unfirtunatly they hadnt gone far enough in the race for him to get what he deserved for the weekend, not what he actually got. Cracked c7 I hope that works out ok????
    Aprilia big winner in the championship after all the post race drama. What a weekend, what a hectic GP.

    I cant find out so far whats up with Digga's hand?
