Quality race despite the track, looks like it's gonna be very tight this year. Love that the indie teams have a chance of wins.
 
Good Race from Cal, lets hope the rest of the season he can stay on (Doubt it though)

As for Rossi just awesome :)

Great to a see DNF from Lorenzo as well :P

I do wonder about Smith and Redding though, the KTM should be performing much better.

However first race of the year only the means the most important race of the year is nearly here.... The TT :)
 
This is absolute chaos. Teams can’t just leave the grid n delay the start. So harsh for Miller. He made his mind up, took the gamble and was ready to go when all the other teams were messing around
 
Yep, there need to be some repercussions for the teams for delaying the start.

Honda can’t complain about Zarco’s move on Pedrosa with the way that Marquez is riding now - almost wiped out two riders
 
Well that was a helluva race, dunno what Marquez was playing at you kinda expect that kind of all or nothing at the end of a close season not 2 races into the start of a new season, that aside what a race Cal rode, you beauty!.
