Motoamerica final round - Alabama

Post by wull »

If anyone is interested, it’s been a more exciting year to watch than previous years.

Final round at Barber Motorsports park raceway. It’s came down to the final round between Jake Gagne and Danilo Petrucci.

It’s looking good for Jake retaining the title but anything can happen, I’d love to see Danilo win it as it’s such a bore to watch when Jake fucks off in the distance.

Qualifying results with Jake setting an outright lap record.

I haven't watch any of it this year,but in years past I did. The commentary does my head in to the point of spoiling the racing. It used to be a very processional field,but maybe that has changed.

Since Rinaldi has resigned to Aruba,Petrucci won't be joining wsbk next year at least. Ducati will want him out there until he wins it for them.

Agreed, when it was AMA with the likes of Mladin and Spies, many moons ago the field was strong, it’s piss poor now. The commentators are laughable, useless no fuck all idiots, also the whole set up with the tracks, marshals etc is extremely dangerous, definitely the shit show.

Jake Gagne wins race 1 extending his lead to 13 points going into the final race. Petrucci finished fourth with a 5s penalty for a jump start but after his team appealed it was overturned and he kept his third place finish.
