Re: Le Mans MotoGP
Binder's short circuit race quality is showing through. He knows how to take advantage of the shorter sprint races.

Marini has inherited his brother's whining attitude
Rossi was the king of hard passes but was too big to penalise.
But was the king of whiners
LM should STFU

Re: Le Mans MotoGP
I think the problem is with the stewards for the most part, not the riders. There's a complete lack of consistency in pernalties being applied. Things started going downhill after the stewards became 'a panel' rather than a single individual.
There is no cloud, just somebody else's computer.

They say you can teach a fast racer to not crash, however Lowes proves that you can't.
I've given up on him.

Re: Le Mans MotoGP
Yup. Good hard racing
There was a big meeting between riders and race instruction.
I reckon the riders expressed their views quite strongly

Re: Le Mans MotoGP
Well that was an expensive meeting for a few teams!
I think MM showed his class with that ride. The sooner he gets on a European bike the better.
