I'm interested to see how Lorenzo gets on against Marquez. Marquez will no doubt wipe the floor with him and Lorenzo will throw his toys out of the pram like he has with every other team mate that has beaten him

Anyone going to Silverstone this year?

Me and my dad have been for the past 2 years. After a bit of debate, we have booked to go again this year.

Interested to see what they've done to the track, if anything, after last year's washout.
 
I wonder if this will be the year where @deuse gets to be right when he says that MotoGP AND Moto2 AND Moto3 break the lap record at every circuit, every year. I'm thinking...no.

Catalunya for us. My wife has refused to go back to Silverstone after getting stuck in the car park for 3 hours
 
I'm a little out of touch... what are Suzuki doing up with the front runners?! :)

I don't think I'd realised I could watch for free due to my BT Broadband. I think I thought I needed to pay for a higher package. Nice :)
 
Super close racing all the way through, going to be s great 2019 :)

Yeah Suzuki have really done well in the last 12 months, I think they'll win a race or two this year. Ducati still looks the best but I think Marc will still nip it.
Thought Cal was outstanding today, 3rd with basically no bike time since destroying his ankle at Philip Island.
 
Great first race, although the pace was fairly sedate for the first 15 laps, but made it more interesting, Vinales doing his best to make it as hard for himself as possible! Hopefully see more of Fabio Quartararo next time out, cracking recovery ride from him!
 
The Dovi/Marquez rivalry has to be one of the best of modern times. Absolutely cracking race. Pity that Quartararo stalled it, he definitely had the pace to keep it up the pointy end.

Cracking ride from Crutchlow too to come back from his injury and get a podium. I was expecting him to bin it after complaining about his front end before the race.
 
Shame for Cal and the jumpstart but he was clearly moving when the lights went out, and that's against the rules. Sure, he gained nothing and the punishment doesn't fit the crime but rules is rules.
