I think BT Sport should employ Ben Spies in a full time commentary role to replace Keith and Jules.
EFA. Spies is great.

Hmm so so race, Marquez off into the distance(although pleased he won) and gutted for Cal, broken hand will be a long time off I think.

Really enjoyed listening to Ben. Easy to listen to and actually knows his st, which is a great change.

Michele Pirro is the official test rider and sub.

This isn't good for cal at all. Not only is he in the shadow of Dovi, his attitude (althought haven't seen much of it today) won't go down well with ducati.

Lorenzo isn't out of this, even after a ride through, he still only finished 3 seconds behind VR, I reckon he would have had second.

Point to make, neither repsol Honda in top 5 through the speed traps, so it isn't an outright speed issue, they've just built a good bike and it 2013 or 2014 tyre it doesn't seem to matter.

Bradley starting to step up, ride of the weekend was Vinales for me though, given the personal sponsorship from repsol and red bull I'd expect him to be on a repsol Honda within 2 years.

Lorenzo needs to get his act together. Title challenge is going backwards. Poor show from both factory yamaha riders.

Oh so you diagnosed Rossis front end problems before Ben did you? The other two didn't have a fking clue. That's info we wouldn't have got otherwise, just a load of speculation.
