MotoGP 2014 Season

£$%&%*£%£ BBC News giving the game away this morning.

WHY!!! Why do the news have to spoil things without a warning. If it's not BBC news it's BBC radio.

If I cared about the result I'd want to watch the race, and if I just wanted to hear the result I'd be happy to hear a warning first. So annoying.

Good work by Marquez. I think it's time Honda look to replace Pedrosa. Unbeatable on his day, but far too inconsistent.

Cal showed again why he isn't in a leading team. He drops it far too often.

I hope Cal has better fortunes on the Honda next year...doubt he'll luck out with such an offer again if he blows it.

He really should've stayed at Tech 3 instead of taking Ducati's money & making himself look like an ass, he's in danger of doing a Chris Walker & making himself unemployable in Motogp.

It was a factory ride and a handsome salary of 1.2mil... I think many people would have struggled to turn that away. Lets not forget, it could have also gone the other way. He may have had a better results now that Audi money was behind it. Instead of the dire results we've seen instead.

It was a gamble that didn't pay off. But I wouldn't write him off just yet.

Since Marquez came in the team Honda see dani as the perfect number 2 rider so that's why they were happy to keep him

Cal is dropping it because he's pushing the envelope when he can't tell what the front is doing so there's little warning before it just gives up. When Cal was on the Yamaha he was great, hence why he has the Honda next year.

I didn't think he had a choice to stay at Tech-3. They signed Espargaro before he signed for Ducati, didn't they?

It'll be interesting to see Cal on a Honda next season, that Ducati is an awful awful bike.

MotoGP has been getting worse and worse season after season. They shouldn't have moved to all these different classes or gone to BT Sport...

the old 125 and 250 classes were stagnant and needed a change.
the new moto 3 class is great, it would be great if moto 2 had other makes of engine, but still it good racing.
motoGP has been anything but boring
 
Sorry, I meant all the new classes within MotoGP.

Moto2 and Moto3 are infinitely better races than the MotoGP
