Just thinking. What sort of crap surgeon does such a shit job?
Wonder if there'll be any medical negligence claim?
In which direction? I mean, did they pin/plate it wrong? or do the commentators mean it has 34 degrees less movement than it should?

I don't really understand 34 degrees 'out of place' - but I've not found anything to say exactly what he had 'done' (maybe didn't look hard enough!)
Imagine breaking a pencil. Twisting it through 34 degrees. Then taping it up again.

Right. That makes sense now - the description, not that it happened :(

If MM hadn’t had that slide on the last corner there’s every chance he’d be on pole, damn impressive anyway. Cal going ok and proving Yamaha have issues with all but one of their riders

FQ needs to ditch that slow Yamaha, lots of yellow flags in both qually sessions which is taking too much away, not a lot they can do about it, thoroughly enjoyed it though

No one can say MM is afraid of a crash! I think he only knows one way to ride.

Saw something on FB about an incident in Moto3 qualifying - was it as I've read, the mechanics of the neighbouring garage prevented the other garage's team leaving the pits?? Surely that can't be right??

Yeah that’s correct, they stood by him and as he went to leave they stepped in and flicked his kill switch. They’ve been given a two race ban I believe.

If they were in my race team, they'd be sacked on the spot.

The question is, why did they do it? They wouldn't have without being told surely?

Only an idiot would tell them to do it.
They are as stupid to do it.

Biaggi has condemned it and they’re his team members. I’d ban them for life tbh as it’s a dumb move

Biaggi is an interesting chap.
But he wouldn't stoop so low.

Cal is faster than the all-time record holder.

Hmmm

Maybe those hole shot devices and suspension lowering thingies are shit?

Exactly this! I’ve been thinking the same and can’t fathom why they’d do it off their own backs, and 3 of them by the looks of it. The initial two who you see approach the bike and then when they walk away there seems to be a third mechanic appear and walk over almost laughing it off, just as the KTM mechanic has a go at him.

I hope it’s being investigated.

If I were the mechanic I’d have kicked the fuckers in the balls.
