    With JR, why fix it if it ain't broke...goin for his second Championship at 30....why would he move up to GP?
    Like Hayes, why didn't he move up when wining his titles, think he should of, should of at least gone to WSB...

    Yep, I do that always. And you have to actually watch the head of the broadcast and see if it is actually what they said it was in the schedule. I'd say they bat about 50%. lol
    I have seen a new schedule listed the day before a race. And some that pop up on the day of the race out of the blue.

    Online streaming is best IMO. Yeah I know it cost $$ but I split Moto GP with a buddy and he buys WSBK.

    I think he got invigorated knowing one of his arch nemesis will no longer be on his team! If MM said he was retiring, I think it would be too much for him. :wink:

    Assuming it all gets sorted.... and with another year under his belt, Vinales on an M1 just might be too much for him.

    The old man spoiled the Spanish party. Flag to flag. One step closer to doing what many consider impossible.

    Boring race for 3/4 of it but Val flag to flag was cool. He looked like a little rookie that won his first race, excitable boy.
    Lowes was most excellent. But wow!, Moto3 was awesome. Brad Bender was on fire. Some of his passes on the brakes were insane. 35th to chat big of a win!! I remember Biaggi running off at turn 1 and coming from 10 seconds behind the last guy to win, but what Bender did was even more impressive.


    The 16 year old Bulega was very exciting too, that last pass was very brave. Rossi was so happy for the kid.

    Wasn't the new software and rules suppose to make it a more level playing field? Seems like the same old aliens are at the front and on the podium! Take a look at the times the off podium riders are behind the winner, if not 3rd place finisher, WTF???

    Alien riders will be faster. The new ECU rules will not change decision making, late braking, cracking open the throttle and bravery. I guess JL didn't get the "Saturday night specials" from Michelin. lol Anyone remember that?

    BTW, My question was me being sarcastic. I find it funny that Dorna keeps reiterating how much better this will be for the sport, where as the last three races the front runners seem to have even bigger gaps than most any race last year.

    Thats funny you brought up the "midnight specials", I was going to say something about that too, just got side tracked. As they say, it's who you know, I think Rossi still knows a few people at Michelin. :wink:
