    Congrats to Marquez, Crutchlow, Pedrosa, and Honda for taking 2nd, 3rd, and 6th place at the San Marino GP. Marquez has now expanded his championship points lead to 67 with just 6 races to go with Rossi now falling into a close 3rd behind 2nd place Dovizioso.

    Here’s a vid of the race - watch it quick before it disappears :D Lorenzo crash is around the 54 minute mark.

    I keep forgetting that I have BeIN sports with our cable company but I have subscriptions to both WSBK and MotoGP, so I just stream them. I was able to catch some Moto America races on BeIN but there too, I can stream them from their website. Essentially I leave the TV to my wife and I just watch stuff on my computer or iPad.

    If I get up early (5AM) to catch the race live, then I use the media computer in the living room to watch on the big screen. A couple of times though, she sat through the Austin races as these where a little closer to hours where we were awake anyway. She found an liking for Dani Pedrosa and is now sad that he has not won a title in the MotoGP class and is now retiring. She said she was getting annoyed that MM seems to be winning races or leading the championship all the time. I told her that's kind of the point of racing, and her response was, "He could at least let Dani win once in a while." Um, OK...

    BSB at Cadwell Park last weekend, one wet race, one dry

    Watch the start when Glen Irving stalls the Ducati, what follows is exactly what Marquez should have had done

    Great riding from all concerned

    Congrats to Honda and Marquez for winning the Aragon GP (3rd in a row!). Kudos to Pedrosa for taking 5th. Marquez now has a 72 point lead with only 5 races to go - time to get the champagne ready and for Ducati to wave the white flag - LOL. Lorenzo's high side on the very first turn was pretty bad - hope he's okay.
    Edit: Lorenzo blames future teammate Marquez for his crash - I watched it again (about 16:30 mark of vid) and I'm not buying it. Link: https://www.motorsport.com/us/motogp/news/lorenzo-marquez-destroyed-my-race-and-my-foot/3182311/

    Watch it quick before it disappears! :D

    I think he knows it wasn’t MM’s fault, he just can’t accept blame that it was his fault. This is one of the reasons I’m not a fan of his. He may be a good rider but what a poor sport! When asked if he did or was going to go to race direction he said “No, because from the outside everyone thinks I leaned too much on the dirt area and it was my mistake” He knows they would call it his mistake and/or a racing incident.

    It will get even better next year, if Marquez starts beating his ass on a regular basis. The only guy who likes him is Alberto Puig....birds of a feather.

    They have a saying in Chicago: "Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. The third time it's enemy action."
