      Ok so we have confirmed elbow down at MotoGP is old hat particularly at Catalunya turn 5. Everybody is doing it....So lets raise the bar again and wait for the first SHOULDER down? Jorge seems to be getting closest so far.....

        What Monster is feeding Cal?!

        Lorenzo 'll not sleep tonight - Ped on pole! Rossi - same old story.

          Yamaha is facing severe engine problems. Both Lorenzo and Rossi had their one engine retired. They are now on 4th one. Honda on the other hand are still on 2nd one.

              I hate to say this, VR of late reminds me more and more of Michael Schumacher on his comeback drive at merc, just occasional flashes of brilliance. I just hope he retires at the end of this season.

                Alright so Rossi qualified on 3rd row as usual.
                Everyone is talking about tyre choice considering the race length. Lets see if we can enjoy some good overtaking in the 2nd half. But I bet my money on Honda. Saw Pedrosa hitting top speeds over 340kmph on the straight 😝
                Just because you haven't seen it doesnt mean its impossible...expect the unexpected.

                  He's #2 in the team.
                  He isnt slow either, couple of tenths here and there,
                  he just had bad moments, which cost him bad.

                  Qualifying is the problem tho, lets wait and see how he goes about in the race

                    Vinales has got 'points' for his behaviour in the pit lane. All the race pundits seem to be happy. First ever this season.

                    Well, if Rossi can tailgate MM, it 'd work for him. But, keeping up with a hot blooded maniac is tough for a 34 year old champ.

                        Valentino should retire at the end of the season.

                            Two things are clear from the Catalunya race: Rossi's reign comes to an end and looks like Dani's shot at championship victory is far from certain.
                            What I find most disturbing is that Lorenzo is a strong contender for this year's championship...again.

                            Wow! Could this really be true? Because this sounds like a deal-breaker.

                              "A perfect day, to be honest I didn't expect to win, I knew I had chance but not like in Mugello where I was more convinced"- Lorenzo

                              The Black Mamba strikes again. YES!!! GO #99!!!

                                I can understand your feelings, I love the DOCTOR so much that I hate seeing him get thrashed in every race. Look at the gap between him and Jorge, u will know how far VR is from the top group, I don't see him catching the top 3 throughout the season. Even Cal is belting VR now a days.
