He needs to go out and hit the pace car. It’s the only thing he hasn’t hit yet.
*yes, I know there is no pace car in MotoGP.

100%. He even admitted yesterday that the way he set the pole lap isn’t the polite way to do it, but he doesn’t really have a choice
Yeah, just started watching the race on the DVR, forgot it was this weekend.
IDAFC21 check your DVR.

Yeah the dvr got it.
Still havent watched the first race......
And finally just watched the first 2 races. Jesus WTF is up w/ Marquez..... How the hell did he even make it out of Portugal alive?
Also, still being somewhat new to all of this, while I do not like to see riders go down and I definitely don't like seeing anyone get hurt, on some level its still kind of hilarious to me that when it does happen, 1. you barely get any coverage of it, aside from the announcer saying "crash!" and a quick shot on tv, and 2. They just keep on going no matter what
In F1, if a carbon fiber strake flies off someones car they red flag the race. But here, there could be a BODY laying just off the track, and they just toss up a yellow flag and run out and get him out of the way while everyones still flying around
Also, again I'm not a bike guy and have no experience riding on or driving one, but I'm still quite amazed at how hard these guys can still go in the wet (thats what she said)

So, not a spoiler, but Marc Marquez is out this weekend due to the injury he suffered at the opening round, where he took out Miguel Oliveira. He (MM) was to serve a double long-lap penalty at the next round, which was Argentina, but he didn't race that either. So now Honda is trying to appeal the penalty so he doesn't have to do it. WTF? Why should he get to skate on serving the penalty? Right now the appeal is being delayed.

Yamaha didn't get any better with straight line speed. Ducati just walked sprinted right past, no effort needed. Doesn't make sense to me why Suzuki pulled out of MotoGP when they were doing so well, and here we have Yamaha doing so poorly. Maybe Yamaha should go find the engineers that worked on the Suzuki's.
For such good weather (a bit windy) the amount of attrition was really surprising. It might have been the front tires giving up, a lot of riders went with the Hard, so they should have lasted for the duration of the race.

dude you aren’t kidding. The Yamaha is by far the slowest bike on the track, look how Rins hung with Pecco. With 8 laps left when Marini flew past quartararo, Yamaha should have been embarrassed. Dude made up a 10+ bike gap in one straight without even using the slip stream
French GP this weekend! I finally just watched the Spanish GP ??️ With the last 2 weekends being F1 weekends I kinda forgot to watch it. Thought it was a pretty damn good race, but I am also biased towards Italians with red vehicles winning races.
I also still need to watch the Formula E Monaco GP, which I think I will do now as well. Just get all my backlogged motorsports things knocked out tonight.
