So is Ducati, I think one of the best motogp race ever, :clapping: very happy with not a single Spaniard on any of the 3 races podiums! (I'm Italian). :lol:

I see that Ducati GP15 wining more than a few races this year, the bikes are way faster than Yamaha or Honda, finally an exciting Motogp season  :drinks:

Watched the highlights last night. What a race. :clapping:

 

Good to see the Ducatis up front but with such a speed advantage?

Outstanding race from Rossi. Let's hope we get a lot more close scraps like that, I couldn't bear another Marquez dominated season.

Agreed, a belting race, top 3 certainly showed them the way. But would Marquez have won if he hadn't been punted off the track?. Much as I want Rossi to win another title, still think the Hondas have a good chance.

They do indeed. MM went through the speed trap at the fastest ever recorded at a MotoGP, 350.5kmh IIRC. Faster than the Ducs.... Last to 5th... I had a feeling this could be a red hot season & sprung for the Motogp video pass, the only way I can watch it down here. Nothing on poor view. Bloody awesome. Moto3 looks like it's going to be epic, too. Cajones grande.

The Ducatis did 354km/h more than once, and MM only manage the fifth best lap time, MM manage to gain a few seconds to the top four only during the laps that Lorenzo was ahead, autosport and crashnet have extensive data on the race

At least with Ducati in the mix things should liven up. Dovi may not be a headline grabbing artist but he can certainly ride a motorcycle.

I happily stand corrected.

I shall eat my helmet if MM fails to get to the pointy end this season despite Losail's surprise. Mind you, I was off the couch cheering on Rossi. I am entertained. Amazing start to the season.

Hope you have a bicycle stile helmet, better if made out of something soft and tasty, :rotflmmfao:  this is not going to be a MM year, I'll be surprise if he doesn't  miss more than one race, he hit Bautista's bike and the guy had to retire, he has done that before, too many times, the way he ride is a danger to everybody, but most of all, to himself
