MotoGP 2025

Toprak says he is going to MotoGP to beat Marquez. Perhaps he should let his riding do the talking. Ducati say, "Let's see if he can back it up."

thats the sort of talk to get passed and repassed about 20 times in one race,never happens on purpose of course.

Italy
Well that sent a message to MM's opposition on a track he is supposedly not good on
I think he is proving he is the only Alien in the group at present
They tried to take it to him in the first 6 laps and bloody aewsome they were
But he menaged himself and the bike to perfection.

What else can you say I dont see it as boring all I feel is total respect for a master at this craft.

He's not only an alien but he's a smart racer. Remember when he was winning on honda, often times he would follow, observe, like a killer whale hunting its prey.. then poof, attack.

He's just got even wiser and more canny as he has got older lol. Its mind boggling how he can do that at 350kmh

The 'other' alien needs his V four to arrive fully competitive (good luck) to see if he could be up there.

MIller seems to think that the v4 isnt faster, although perhaps it is on some of the tracks where the inline is much slower, like last weekend

[F5 Dave]

You'd think if Yamaha had employed, say Gigis right hand man, they would be able to make enough of a Dooclattery clone to leapfrog them to the playing field.
Oh. Right. They did.
Hurry up about it boys.

The v4 wont be a magic bullet for Yamaha. Its a whole new bike .Any traits that are agreeable on the Yammie now will not automatically carry over the the V4. I think next year the v4 M1 is just going to be a test bed for the 850 v4

Acosta is "special" and likely has the ability but he needs the bike.

Yes pritch there are a couple of Alien level riders . I miss the Rossi era and the Aliens at that time.

I still wonder if Miller and a few others like Vinales will ever raise their game.

Vinales has taken to the KTM like the proverbial. It does make you wonder where Acosta sits in comparison.

The real issue is that you need to be on a Ducati to have any chance of winning the championship, and 2026 will most likely be more of the same.

A little somthing to watch until the next race. This is the International "R3 Cup".
Watch the last lap from around the 23.20 mark.

Apparently the rider with the surname of Turner is according to the commentators a Japanese/Kiwi rider! They podiumed!!!!

As someone that has an R3 as a trackday bike, that was a bloody good watch.

I think MV is an alien,but he is alien off the bike too.

Miller won't. He's an excellent rider that won't improve, he's probably at his level and is too old to make the next jump. Probably could retire to WSB and clean up.
The level at MotoGP is that high.

Vinales, Geez. What do you say?

I just hope 2027 can bring some other brands into the frey.

As in that he is mostly "Lost in Space"?

For me the only real alien left is MM. Jury still out on Acosta for me, gifted he is for sure. Would be awesome to see him get a competitive KTM and take it to the dukes.

Yep bang on Alien Because nobody is coping with their bikes negatives like MM.
The duc has them ask Pecco and then ask Alex why he is those always .10's behind.
It's the rider in the set up before he gets on and on the bike.

I'm not a 100% MM fan as I used to think he was a bit dirty but now injury, age and risk adversity has made him a lot cleaner.
