Re: Portuguese MotoGP
Hope Pol is OK, that was a fucking horrible off.
Jack is a happy bunny, its going to be interesting to see him and Aprilia boys be the main opposition to Ducati with Honda and Yamaha in the background. Go Europe!

Re: Portuguese MotoGP
I can start watching races again. Haven't been able to see any since they put them on the Bein channel which I don't have. That was 5 or 6 years ago, maybe longer. Only recognize 3 or 4 names.
Entire season is now on NBC

Re: Portuguese MotoGP
We only get the main race on Sunday, no sprint race & no other classes. Tuned into Daytona coverage a few days ago & saw a bunch of frigging HD's with panniers doddering around the track, didn't even watch a full lap of that bullshit. Did see some 200 coverage, the last 6 laps. That's kinda boring AF without 1000cc Jap 4'sG.P wrote: Fri Mar 24, 2023 6:16 pm Enjoy! its a real big change this year with sprint race on a Saturday before main GP on Sunday but if you've not been watching for a whie just enjoy the racing as its brilliant in every class at every venue.

Re: Portuguese MotoGP
Sorry if this is a bit thick, but:
Does today's FP2 decide the grid position for the sprint race on Saturday? Or does the usual Saturday Q1and Q2 decide the grid position for both the sprint and Sunday's race?

Re: Portuguese MotoGP
The practice sessions determine whether you go into Q1 or Q2. The combined times of FP1 and FP2 take the top ten into Q2,the rest will do Q1. The top 2 in Q1 get another chance in Q2.Pirahna wrote: Fri Mar 24, 2023 7:46 pm Sorry if this is a bit thick, but:

Re: Portuguese MotoGP
Transferred to hospital in Faro with spine, chest and lung injuries but so far looks positive for movement and no paralysis despite the spinal injury.
The riders have been saying for a while that wall needs an air fence and the gravel just lets them skim over it so might change before tomorrow gets running

Re: Portuguese MotoGP
First ever sprint race today. Given how mad FP2 was yesterday I think today is going to be VERY interesting
