Moto GP starting to rekindle the fire

Postby boxerscott » Tue Jun 11, 2024 10:52 pm

This season has been a turnaround for moto gp enthusiasts. It needed it. Since Rossi`s demise / retirement and Marquez`s plight of injuries, the lack of star love hate rivalries , covid etc we now have Marquez back to fitness , building form and causing more controversy stealing the 25 Ducati factory seat from the current championship leader! I hope the young "Martinator" is fired by his rejection (by the politics of Dorna and Sponsors) and goes on to win the title.

One wonders how this young man can do it knowing he does not have 100pc commitment from his teams suppliers or the shallow mechanisms of corporate global sales. I hope he sees it for what it is and matures to go on and be great at what he does.

I don`t subscribe to much these days but now keep an eye on the highlights on You Tube.

BTW The bikes look shite with all this Dan Dare winglets and tail fins, looks similar in keeping with what my 5 year old grandsons draw!!

As a side note im well into WSB. Toprak Razgatlioglu is such a naturally gifted rider the way he slides the bike into the fast bends is a joy to watch. BMW went all out to poach him from Yamaha and he`s not disappointed. Hope Jonny Rae can get the Yamaha to work, would be a shame for him to fade away.

But what about today ....

The most ridiculous start for MM93, skidding on his own tear off, dropping eight places, coming back to win. A good watch on the tele this morning.
