That was brilliant racing. Tempted to watch the 2 and 3 races too.

Amazing race, so happy for Danilo!

Really good read here on the weekend below:

No point watching after that...! Nice one Jorge.

Looked to be shaping up to be a corker. Rins keeping it semi interesting until just then.

Jorge got a bit of feeling again and went in there way too confident. Turn 5 is notoriously slippy. Ruined the race, athough it was a good battle between Quatararo, Rins and Petrucci.

I've seen a few people on Twitter questioning if Lorenzo crashed on purpose to take out Dovi and help Marquez's title chances. Really? No chance. Absolutely no chance.

We were at the track, people started leaving after the " incident "

I agree, Marc can win on his own and is more interested in doing so for the right reasons, he doesn’t need help.

I actually agreed with Keith in that it looked like one of the contributors was Dovi cutting back, it certainly wasn’t his fault but it made the crash much worse

Yep, agreed. Marquez doesn't need the help and Lorenzo isn't a dirty rider so he wouldn't do it. The incident was definitely his mistake, but there was no malice there.

I guess some people forgot that Lorenzo never helps out his team mates

What is it with Lorenzo and the fuel tanks? Didn't Honda make some adjustments to his before this weekend? I hope he can get back to the front regularly, I'm not a fan but one more bike duking it out at the front has to be good.

There are 2 strong Marquez tracks coming up next so he's going to end up well clear in the championship. I'm not sure what can stop him from winning in this year.

Marquez has this champtionship in the bag I think. I can't see anyone beating him.

I'd really like to see Dovi take the title.

bloodiedathame · 3 Aug 2019 at 13:53

Just watched Marquez put it on pole on slicks in the rain. WTF.

As we keep on saying, the only man who can beat Marquez, is Marquez.

I was never around for the Rossi dominance years, but i don't even care that Marc is so dominant. I could watch the guy do time trials all day and not get bored. Some of the stuff he does is simply sensational, like that lap; I'm such a fan.

Lakeland · 7 Aug 2019 at 14:11

Them two laps were nothing short of spectacular. I’d love to seem him at the TT.

SoliD · 11 Aug 2019 at 13:41

Cor, what a race that was! Tense through to the finish. More of those for the rest of the season. But unlikely as this was a ducati track and only just did it!

AndyCr15 · 11 Aug 2019 at 14:12

I had it on in the background, but started watching properly from about 7 laps to go. Wow, great last 2 or 3 laps. Fantastic finish.

the-evaluator · 12 Aug 2019 at 08:56

Dovi really wanted that victory!

Shimmy · 12 Aug 2019 at 08:58

Proper dog fight that, great racing from both of them.

mikedigitales · 12 Aug 2019 at 09:07

Good to see Dovi take it to Marquez like that, proper racing again! Wonder where Zarco will go now they agreed to cancel his contract with KTM.

the-evaluator · 12 Aug 2019 at 09:10

I think Zarco will be without a ride in MotoGP for 2020 and will go elsewhere. It'll be a shame as he was riding very well on the Tech 3 Yamaha.
