RedBull Ring GP

Post by the_priest »

Well blow me down! KTM on Pole by Pol. Nagashimi and Zarco 2nd/3rd, although Zarco does get to sit on the naughty step in the pitlane start.

This is really turning into a who is gonna win it season! Marquez is now confirmed as out of order for 2-3 months and will only return when 100%.

Rossi is far down the field in 14th.

KTM should be sending Weeksy a thankyou card or something.

they should be sending one to Pedrosa as well. I reckon his feedback is what is turning this beast around into a rideable bike. He was probably pissed at riding a Honda that was not adaptable enough for different styles.

But yes, Weeksy should get a nice Orange thank you card and a free 1290 SDR Test ride.

I reckon when he sells the XSR, Rossi will win the championship.

I'm still not sure why Zarco was in Q1 & Q2 when we all knew he was starting from pit lane ???

I thought that. But also that he went through from q1 so effectively deprived another rider a chance of moving to q2 and getting a better grid position.
Seems wrong to me.
