2020 MotoGP Racing - Spoiler Alert

[cowboyup3371]

Watching the Spanish GP right now and all I have to say is wow, what a race. Marquez was very lucky on turn 4 at first and made a fantastic comeback until the last few laps. I hope it won't be too long for him to come back

Looks hurt bad.

Broken humerus, so he's going to be out a few weeks I would think.

Before that crash though, that was one of the more amazing displays of riding that I've ever see.

And very nice to see Quartararo get that first win.

I haven't see the race yet, but learning the outcome spoils nothing for me.
Yeah old story: the younger man wins, the older (they age quickly) champion competes so hard he injures himself.
Glad to hear MotoGP is racing again.
Been very afraid our Michigan Governor would shut down track days!!! Could still happen.

I'm glad to see racing back. BT Sports coverage was excellent. Love how they used the background screen to conduct interviews. A very unique and novel approach in today's world of social distancing.

One takeaway from the MotoGP race for me is that Marquez is still the man. By a large margin. He was absolutely flying as he always seems to do. Dude just can't seem to find it in himself to back off sometimes though. His body is accumulating a lot of damage as time goes on and it may well catch up to him here sooner rather than later. Rossi in contrast (referring to both today and back when he was dominate) keeps the rubber side down more consistently.

Anyway, I'm glad to see Quartararo finally get his victory. That dude is fast, even riding what seems like a slower bike. It seems crazy that Yamaha continues year after year to field a bike that's so far down on HP compared to the competition. Oh well.

And why the heck is Rossi still hanging on? For the money? I suppose that's a pretty good reason mind you but considering where he was in terms of skills and where he is now it's hard to understanding why he persists.

What is the standard level of skill to ride MotoGP?

I'm only posting this short video because it shows the high level of skill expected in MotoGP.
Can't see this at normal speed.

Rossi is hanging on at the insistence of Dorma... He is such a fan draw to the series they don't want to lose him although any more years of him propping up the middle of the pack might see him becoming a less critical part of the show.

He should run a team next... he's already heavily into rider development at his ranch

Ed - How do you get BT Sport? I had to watch highlights only on Dplay..... (two days later)

[Nessism]

Rossi's got his teeth into the lower level Sky Team eh? I agree that he should move that side of the business. Maybe just one more year of mega millions? I suppose it's hard to say no.

Marc has been cleared to race this weekend.

Hahahahahahahahaha

Marc has been cleared to race this weekend.

If he is not careful, that is what he WILL end up looking like. He is not indestructable.
