Really nice to see Zarco limping over to Pecco.

How did they come together ????

The look on Rossi's face when he got back to the pits said it all, how lucky he was. I shouted out a few sweary words and the daughter came running to see what my problem was.

Late to the party as out working on the bike all day so only just seen the race..... IMO both Yamaha riders were lucky but Maverick cashed in more lives. The wreckage went in front of Rossi, it went over Vinales head and he was hit by some of it as well.

Scary crash and lucky everyone walked away from it.

In other news Avinitia Ducati have a factory GP19 bike for sale, low miles and can deliver in a small box ;)

Took a whle working out what went where on that. Wonder if those forks are useble, I'll stick them on my Le mans if they are chucking them out. The top triple clamp has totaly disappeared middle clamp looks ok, but how come the front wheel it missing? The fork wheel clamps look ok (ish) I would have thought they would break for the wheel to be missing.

What kind of action will FIM take against Zarco?
Place your bets now!
1 race ban ( which considering he is out for a bit will be toothless)
