Thai MotoGP 2024

Post by ChrisW »

All over the place in second practice.

Nice to see Acosta out-performing the injury and Quatararo the bike (see earlier session times).

Let's see what happens tomorrow - tonight, in the morning...whatever.

A nasty pit lane accident for Tony Arbolino. Hope the chap is ok. Quartararo's face when watching the incident spoke volumes.

Pleased for FQ in Q1 and 2, the sprint had a few scrappy moments, happy for the championship.

Acosta still needs to crash less. Feels like he's riding the KTM like Marquez on the Honda last year.

Pecco needs to start beating Jorge very soon,or the number one plate is going to Aprilia in 25.

JM can finish 2nd in every race and be champion even if Pecco wins them all.

But 1 crash for JM and it's game on.

I quite like the idea of George winning it. Mixes things up, a bit spicier for next year.

I don't mind much who wins the title. Both Pecco and Jorge have ridden well enough to deserve it and both have made big mistakes on the way. Whoever loses will have those occasions on their mind for sure.

This one isn't over just yet.

Shame for Quartararo - was looking foward to seeing how he did over the course of the race.

Not sure why Marquez pushed so hard so early.

Great stuff from Miller and Acosta at the end.
