I think mv overtaking shows two things
1) the suzi is still not quite on par
2)He is showing a bit of respect to his elders

Early on I thought he was gonna stuff it up the inside of VR but then thought maybe not.He didnt show JL the same patience later!

Lorenzo was no where near as fast. He didn't need to show patience, he needed to get by and try to catch Pedrosa.

Yep but it was a pretty forceful pass!

Ditto. Used to think he was all good till that tragic display, after the worst case of dirty riding I've ever seen. Personally, had it been me he rode like that against, I would've smashed him in the face.

It was a gorgeous pass and was the only way he could outgun JL, who despite going at granny pace, was using all the tricks in the book to keep him behind.
I couldn't quite put my finger on where the Suzuki was lacking vs the Honda, but I think the main thing was Dani wasn't at the limit and was trying to keep his tyres good. Once Dani dropped the hammer it was all over for young Maverick. Classic racing though and what we all want to see, the young guns taking on the old heads.

Speaking of overtaking manoeuvres, pass of the weekend goes to Binder when he backed it in past 2 bikes (Fenati and ____?). Great riding and confidence in the bike beneath him.
Moto3 has some exciting talent I cant wait to see progress.

hell yes, some real good close racing from flagfall to flagfall in the moto3, almost looking froward to the moto3 than the gp now.

Yeah, I think Iannone popped up from the fairing and went for the brakes at the usual braking marker, but Lorenzo was much slower mid corner - with his rear wheel already in the air, it is a bit hard to change your line to cut to the outside line. Heat of the battle error. On the plus side, Lorenzo does an impressive "running man" mid air!

Rossi Proved again he is far from a spent force.
Felt the "thawing" between him and MM was a tad more genuine from the MM side. Pleasing to see it none the less.

Fucking awesome race!

Felt that way for awhile now. At times I hide behind a cushion watching moto3, how many bikes can you throw a tea towel over? I'm really hoping Binder keeps it together for the whole season. He's really standing out in moto 3. I mean, FFS, last to first and still 10 laps left to rub everybody's nose in it? Hanging around last night and then just taking his win. Great. Kent looked pretty good most of last season but I reckon Binder is brighter, tougher, and better hung.

Me and the missus are blown away by the current level of racing in all classes, watched motogp this morning, better than breakfast TV. I left the house feeling post orgasmic.

Oh, that's twice in succession Marquez has finished second after a blistering race and been all smiles. Got the points, on the podium, his time is coming I think and maybe so does he.
