If you don't like the commentary, change channel or use mute. ;)

Could Lorenzo make a start like US GP last year?
 
Hopefully this will be a good one. Three minutes to go...

I will try and avoid spoilers though as I'll watch the race in
about three hours instead on mgp.com :embarrassed:

This is a race I have to watch with dad (we've been watching MGP
together for fifteen years) and he's away on a business trip.


Good Luck to Valentino and Jorge.
 
I haven't been this nervous watching a race for a very long time.

The field is helping Rossi. :lol:
 
Honestly Marquez's behaviour is ridiculous. The whole time he screams that he wants to win today and now he doesn't even add pressure on Lorenzo, even though he easily could've passed Jorge already :irked:
 
Rossi's losing ground to Pedrosa. This isn't looking good. :(
 
Marquez, you tool. You cruise behind Lorenzo, but once your teammate passes you, you actually want to race.

Anyway, congratulations Lorenzo on the title. Disappointed that Rossi didn't quite get there.
 
I'm a fan of Lorenzo, but seeing what happend today and in Sepang, he just doesn't deserve the title to 100%.
Really bitter taste to this championship, all thanks to Marc Marquez 👎:yuck:
 
Congratulations to Rossi for being the best rider of the season. The Spaniards needed an artificial penalty and cooperation across teams to even have a snowball's chance in hell of getting close to him.
 
Welp, looks like Marquez got what he wanted. Congratulations to Lorenzo on the title. :cheers:
 
Marquez should be fired for that. He's supposed to race to win not follow a rider on a rival bike without even the remotest effort to pass. 👎

Well done to Lorenzo. He did everything he had to do. That makes him a worthy World Champion. 👍

This. He even nearly took out Pedrosa as he was trying to get into a battle with Jorge.
 
If this world championship had been fair, I think we all know who would've won the title...

But I guess that simply happens in an international spanish series such as the MotoGP.


Officially Lorenzo is the champion, but I think we all know who the real champion is in most peoples eyes.
 
Not even a single move against Lorenzo. But as soon as Pedrosa pass him he immediately pass Dani and stick to Lorenzo's a$$ until the end.

I think it's just the British attitude towards sport, really. I was watching the Rugby World Cup recently, and Britain had a fairly middling team, but there was an assumptiom that they would be up there.

Which team was that, then? England? Wales? Or the Scottish team who were the unfortunate victims of a cock up that probably cost them a place in the semi finals instead of your native Australia?

I also think the British media tend to go overboard at times, but if you insist on being Mr. Knowitall, at least get your facts right.
 
And I thought mafia was only an italian thing.

Spanish learned well and took it to a whole new level.

This sport need a black flag rule when Race Direction finds out a rider is manipulating results.
Or this is no longer a sport.
