Qatar Moto GP - **With Spoliers **
Discussion
Impressed by the ride from Maverick; thought he'd run & hide from the start. However, he kept his cool, when he could have lost patience and done something rash; delivered the win as we expected, just not in the way expected. Other good 'old head' rides from Dovi, Rossi & Marquez...scoring points consistently could pay off even more so this year.
And, I don't want to sound like a broken record, but that race was everything the F1 wasn't.

I dipped into F1 today, spent about 5 mins looking at it then turned it off. After pratting about with Kodi for an hour I just subscribed to the video pass. Cool having multiple screens and being able to review without spoilers.

The KTMs were 16th & 17th place 33s & 39s off the winner, probably the track conditions keeping everyone pretty close but 33s off the winner is usually 10th/11th place, 39s 12th/13th.
Or it might be a good sign of close racing this year.
It was a short race though, so those times are a bit distorted. Or it might be a good sign of close racing this year.
Great race, amazed by Zarco at the start and gutted for him. Great win by Vinales. Marquez seems to have his sensible head on again and took a steady 4th, he's still the favourite for me this year.
I've always liked Lorenzo, but once again he's proving that unless conditions are perfect, then he's simply not up to it. Disappointed.

Heuwen manages commentate on the rest of the field whilst somehow only ever really talking about Rossi. It's quite a skill.
I'm excited to try the C5 highlights tonight. If the commentary is done by literally any other creature, facility or instrument in the entire universe capable of making noises, I'll never ever look at BT Sport again. For, lo, everything about Heuwen is terrible.

It'll no doubt be the same package C4 had, BT Sport's commentary. Probably because they have the UK TV rights.Gassing Station | Biker Banter | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
