    Eh, he only wins when he's on the best equipment. Wasn't that impressive last year on the satellite bike. He's a psycho for sure, but he's not all that. I thought MotoGP was supposed to be more about rider skillz, but the past several seasons have proven otherwise. I would argue that FQ20 is the most impressive current rider. He's showing pole speed often on a bike that shouldn't be in the top 6.

    socalrider pathetic and rude

    I won't argue what is boring or not, because it's subjective. I will agree it's less eventful in average, but, I still enjoy watching history be made. 7 seconds at sachenring!!!! That's wild as fuck... I have to watch. To see what else is going to happen.

    I will gladly disagree with you while also saying, you are one of the guys on here I would love to meet in person and just hang with. But that's the real world, we can all disagree and still get along

    Explain his Moto3 Championship.

    Explain his Moto2 Championship.

    Explain at least 3 of his MotoGP titles where it was clear he was riding at best the 3rd best bike on the grid.

    Explain how unimpressive he was on lasts years Satellite bike when you look at the other 4 riders on the same machinery and combined they tallied roughly the same points as he did while on a brand new team learning a brand new bike and with the use of maybe 75% of his arm.

    BUT, agreed on Fabio. Top 3 rider on the grid for the past 6 years.

    MM and Fabio are the aliens, Bags, Bezz, and AM73 are a step behind those two.

    I’d say the majority of us agree with you that Fabio is an alien.

    HPPT !!!

    Don't challenge him. He knows he's wrong. Everyone (not from his church) reading knows he's wrong. But he needs to do that. It's a release. He is in pain. He is taking a massive L this season. Be a friend. Let him have this.

    Yeah, wasn't long ago some folks were claiming Marc is done, arm is junk, he'll never win again, certainly not with any regularity, certainly not a championship.
    LOL, how'd that age Nostradamuses?

    To all the doubters credit, Marc was fucked up and had botched work done. Even though he can ride around a shitty bike, I believe physical well being is crucial to succeed at that level.

    It's hard to see past MM93 locking out the weekend... again. Admittedly, it'll be another snooze fest if that happens, but hey, that's what highlights and Moto2 & Moto3 are for.

    I think Jorge weekend has 3 potential outcomes. 1st scenario: he goes fast, finds a good rhythm, and mixes it it up in the top 5 (Bez is proving the bike can do it). 2nd scenario: he wad it up trying to go fast, gets salty, and exacerbates an already tenuous situation with the team. The media rejoice and headlines abound. 3rd scenario: he's signed the Honda contract and just shows up to check the box. Finishes in the top 10. Nobody faults him for it.

    Acosta seems to have broken up with KTM in his mind and I believe he'll push hard just to show that "see, it's the bike!" which likely means he'll crash out of 1 race. The rest of the KTMs will be there or thereabouts if the riders are healthy.

    I'd like to see Marini continue to knock on the top 5 and challenge Zarco as the top Honda. A top 5 should be his objective. Not sure where Mir is at.

    Franky should be back if his elbow injury isn't serious and I'd like to see Digital Antonio fighting for the podium with Alex. At this point, it looks as though Digital Antonio has more pace than Pecco.

    I'm curious to see if Fernandez continues his upward trajectory at Trackhouse. Agura has been mixed lately. Still feeling his injury?

    Olivera is cooked. Miller will be in the top 10 and same for Rins. As for The Royale. He's clearly the 2nd best rider on the grid. I'd like to see him get a double podium.

    Marini consistently challenge for a Top 5???

    Buahahaha…..

    Word is Martin has already “recommitted” to Aprilia and will host a solo press conference to eat crow and make nice with Massimo.
    As for this weekend, I predict he finishes 8th-14th which given his head space and physical status is as good as can be expected.
