My God egor110. You really do hate Rossi. I for one am delighted he's on pole. The bodyguard thing is plain daft, only stirring up more media coverage just in case any muppet might not have thought about attacking them. Tbh I'd have thought all riders would have had someone at this level.

Why would i hate a Italian sports star i don't know?

For the same reasons i don't hero worship him either like other adults seem to.

If rossi wins the championship then fair play to him , but i'd prefer it if nobody ran away with the title this early in the season.

It's going to be interesting next year how his relationship with vinales develops.

I'm going to show some support for the Brits here. I reckon we'll have two in the top ten, also Crutchlow to finish the race. (I have not been drinking!)

I'll go for smith and laverty in the top 10 then.

What a bloody cracking Moto3 race

[loose cannon]

Wow I'm buzzing already after that freight train of a Moto 3 race

[mitzy]

Lowes
Classy move

[Fleegle]

Alex Marquez has picked his bike up more times than Cal this year. He's had a disappointing year so far.....I wonder if he will actually finish the restarted race

+1 . You can really see Brad Binder's class shining amongst the other riders though.

What a mess

[Centurion07]

This is a bit of a farce now, even if it hadn't been for the awesome Moto3 race beforehand.

Not even sure what the issue is.

Isn't it just, new rule, old rule, who cares! It obviously is stoopid.

[Yazza54]

10 lap dogfight could be fun though

[Centurion07]

Have I missed why they pulled them off the grid the second time?

What was wrong with making the guys that missed the window start from pitlane as they were going to?

Oh yes, balls out racing!

[hairyben]

I feel the need to apologise for this utter farce; I was just pontificating to the mrs when the quick re start procedure was announced how much i like that motogp just ditches the procedural BS that f1 would have and gets a race going. Then this. Sorry.

[Centurion07]

Does it get any worse than crashing on the sighting lap of a restarted race that you would've been on the back of the grid for?

Total clusterfk all round.

[FourWheelDrift]

This is what happens when you let the pedants run the show.

[FredericRobinson]

How can ignoring a red light / flag not be a disqualification offence?

[em177]

Rins to 7th in a 10 lap sprint is pretty impressive.

[s3fella]

Iannone for this one I reckon. The heat will mean the Yams struggle with the front. Duc speed will help it.
