A daring move by Marq at the last curve..almost saw him through and beat Dovi. Always keeps me wondering what this guy is made up off..pure Skill / No Fear - never Die Attitude / just pure Awesomeness. Thanks to him, it was hell of a race, a real blinder :-)


ATGATT!!!

Cheers,

Fantastic race ,down to the last corner . Dovi deserved it with soft tire option but love the way Marc fights till the end could have gone horribly wrong for both of them.Great race by Dani too.
Morbidelli consolidated his lead over Luthi in Moto2 while Mir did the same in Moto3.

Missed the smaller classes racing yesterday. But what a race in MotoGP. Not just the last corner move by Marquez, but the entire race was good to watch!

That's kind of an oxymoron. He is Marc. He dares to try the unthinkable everywhere and manages to pull it off more often than not

i missed watching the race that seems to be the most exciting one of the season so far..

Re: MotoGP 2017 season discussion thread

just watched the race finally...great several laps between dovi and MM, and terribly questionable (but not surprising) last corner attempt by MM, think he hoped for a repeat of jerez 2013 last lap bump that would correct his line through the corner at the expense of his rival and win him his race (obviously he is smart and experienced enough to know that he would not have any decent line through the corner without bumping into someone/something to correct himself)...and probably dovi's greatest ride in his career so far..he probably was ready for some ridiculous attempt from marc..

love watching MM ride even when he is alone on the track, easily the most exciting and talented rider, but sometimes it seems he has or firmly believes in having very (borderline) unethical last ditch tendencies in closest battles... but then he is not the first (or the last) one to believe in and practice such tactics.

i hope dovi wins this title...

Wow Rossi was so close to kick off Marquez silverstone track record. 0.4 sec until sector 4 which eats up all his advantage.

Awesome MotoGP race. It would have been so much awesomer if Marquez had been able to fight till the flag. 5 guys so close to each other till the chequered flag is amazing racing.

Glad to see that no one crashed out because of the exceptionally bumpy Silverstone circuit.

Lorenzo did a good job for 5th, for most of the race he was running the same lap times as the guys ahead of him. He lost touch at the beginning and could never recover the gap. Slow and steady progress for him.

Good ride by Rins as well, coming into his own finally. Comprehensively faster than his teammate, who crashed out losing the front yet again.

Terrible day for Aprilia and good day for Pol Espargaro on the KTM. The Austrian manufacturer is improving in leaps and bounds.

Great Moto GP race .Also the Moto 3 race was awesome with almost 20 riders at the end finishing within a couple of seconds ,some of the corners five abreast and the lead kept changing corner to corner - finished one lap earlier due to red flag after a crash .Missed the Moto 2 race though.
