    Mill

    Miller could be a good bet to win this. Bagnaia won't be taking any risks. Quateraro has to win it - or bin it in the attempt.
    I'm not staying up until about 2.30 to watch it so I'll have to avoid bike related sites until I do..

    FQ did everything he could though, that first few laps was epic.

    Can someone ban Bagnaia's girlfriend from the pits, please? I enjoyed the race, but holy shit, if this was a 1940s movie, there'd be blokes lining up to slap her out of her hysteria.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Not much. Their faces will paint a picture.

    Congratulations Pecco. It takes a lot to come back from 91 points down.

    Very sad to see Suzuki go, because they will never come back. A pity we saw so little of Rins during the race, it's been a pleasure to watch him on the Suzuki.

    They've left before and come back. Never say never.

    I can't see them coming back again. It would cost a small fortune to put a team back together and likely take years to build a competitive bike again. Maybe when MotoGP goes electric?

    I think the fact they've done it before suggests it isn't impossible. It would've cost a small fortune to put a team back together and did take years to build a competitive bike again that won a world championship after they left the four stroke era the first time.

    Well I'm picking MV for the win. The fact that the race has already occurred doesn't make it more or less likely, but mainly as it will send James into an apoplectic rage.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    sadly for Yamaha fans it sounds like the new engine is as slow as the old one...https://motomatters.com/analysis/202..._a_lot_of.html

    They should hire the Suzuki engine development team. That's a long straight at Valencia but Rins was able to stay in the lead.

    I feel really sorry for Rins and Mir having to move to Honda. Sounds like the new bike isn't much better.
