  • Re: MotoGP 2016 Season - Updates!

    Very sad indeed, another great talent!

    Very very unfortunate. It's very disheartening, wish there was gravel on that strip of land which might have saved him. But all that one could do is wish right now

    RIP Luis Salom, you will be missed

      Sad news. I remember watching him race in Moto3 at the pointy end. He was always on it. An aggressive rider who would immediately try to get back if he was overtaken. It was wonderful to watch him on track. Another sad day in motorsport racing.

      Because of him accident, MotoGP will be using the F1 layout for the remainder of the weekend.

        When I saw him like this, I thought that his race was washed up. How wrong I was!

              ^^ MotoGP News - Catalulnya MotoGP to use F1 layout following Salom tragedy


              we all know shit like this can happen any time with any one of them and the thrill and danger is one of the main reasons why racing is awesome and why the racers love doing what they do, but nonetheless it's no less tragic when it inevitably actually does happen once every few years....

                While watching FP4 of Motogp, it was told by the officials that in Moto3 class FP, last corner exiting speed has increased compared to previous circuit last corner speed. Though nothing told about the changes in the speed of Premiere class speed at last corner.

                    Sure he did 😁 the race sort of reminded me of 2009 😁 🏁
                    Happy that Rossi finally broke the ice between him and Marquez.

                      I was there(in 2009 race) for sometime, during the race. Both VR46 and MM93 rode great! Great to see handshake between them. MV25 was a bit aggressive.

                          Ohh VR46. You are a master. Really deserve 'The Doctor' title. Started at 5th, dropped down to 8th and then clawed your way back in getting past the likes of Pol Espargo, Andrea Iannone, Danny Pedroso, Marc Marquez, Jorge Lorenzo with clinical precision. And the final 5 lap battle with MM93. Classic.

                          And hats off to party pooper Andrea Iannone for taking out Lorenzo . 0 points for Lorenzo means the championship is now open to the top 3. Iannone is like Danny Kwayt in F1. Likes to spoil others mood. Earlier in the season he had taken down Dovizioso.

                            Real beneficiary is Marc. However, becoz Yamaha's advantage is shared.by Rossi or Lorenzo. However, Marc slots in podium position and gets the much needed points. Today's race showed how important the synergy between the race track, setup and tyre. Lorenzo completely lost was due.to be overtaken by both Ianone and Pol. He may well fend off pop's attack. Ianone spoiled it.

                            Marc needs atleast 2 wins before the championship moves out of Europe, to stay in contention. Saschering may give him 1. Let's see...

                              Ramon Forcada to remain at Yamaha to work with Maverick Vinales. No shocker there.

                              He's leading the championship right now. 2 wins to stay in contention? very confused.

                              Marquez has won at every track (every venue) he's raced on with the exception of Motegi.

                              My money is on Marquez or Rossi to win the championship this year. In that order. (I want Rossi to win it though.)

                                It's not a prediction. I have done a splatter analysis based on the past performance of top four riders and can say that getting a victory in European tracks will be a tough ask for marc
