MGP - Qatar - May Contain Spoilers

[dibblecorse]

FP1 nearly done, all looking clean, Miller has had an off from what I have caught so far but is back in the garage safe ...

Morbidelli top of the tree with 3:30 left ....

VR46 in 6th ....

FP1 MGP

Moto3 commentators reckon FP2 will be the session that sets the times for qualifying, I wonder if that will be the case for the other two classes.

Yeah, I heard that, something about ideal temperatures and operating in proper daylight, as temps tail off as it gets darker ....

Things I learnt today:

Gavin can't say Boscoscuro.

Thats because he can't roll his R's, also learnt that Hodgson though the iconic #37 won the 2020 MGP title !!!!

What is MGP shown on these days not watched it for ages might stick it on tomorrow.

Might watch it that way, not really a fan of watching full races not live but highlights are ok.

Ducati top speed is considerable. Expect major slip streaming overtakes on the straights. Miller looking good.

[hiccy18]

Rins has gone well here in the past, and Franky looks like a dark horse, as usual.

Will HRC be able to make enough fairings this year

[epom]

Excitement building, have cleared the schedule with the wife

Think fp3 showing which bikes work best with greasy/low grip.

That Honda front end not looking like it’s giving any feel/confidence.

Good to see the Prillers making progress.

I’m suspecting KTM are holding something back at this stage too. Maybe dialled the motors back at the mo.

Suzuki also a bit underwhelming so far, but I expect the late race pace to be their trump card again.

Having switched allegiances to Ducati, got to say, they’re looking awesome so far & they’ve got a hungry bunch of jockeys this year.

Hope Lowes & Jake Dixon stay crash/further injury free too.

McPhee must be due some better luck this year too.

Binder under investigation for the elbows out with Masia on the pole lap.

[FourWheelDrift]

Zarco 225.5mph.



Then doesn't make T1 on the brakes. Doesn't stop until he reaches the Red Sea.

Emmett cant say Boscoscuro, but he cant half say "as it stands" numptie.
