  1. Q1 MM93 WTF!!!???
    :cool:
     
  2. That’s the risk of leaving your final flying lap to the very end of the session. I’m sure Baggy didn’t fall off deliberately :joy: It was commented that MM had been “steady” in both sessions and in a couple of shots, he didn’t look comfortable on the bike. Andy
     
  3. I wonder why 93 didn’t just go out on his own in q2 after setting the lap record on his own in the previous session. Was clearly held up on both runs.

  4. Good old Pecco.

  5. It seems the full coverage we had last weekend by Quest was a one off, this weekend they're back to just doing the sprint.
     
  6. Shit race, Jorge’s great start about the only highlight.

    Interesting hearing Gav and Hodgy saying 93 should retire when it seems he’s already signed up for the 850 era.
    And was it my telly or did the French crowd cheer/erupt when he crashed?
     
  7. Well, I enjoyed it.
    :upyeah:
     
  8. Be surprised if Marc is racing Sunday. He couldnt put his foot down after he got out of his leathers..
     

  9. Which part? I think I counted two overtakes after the first corner.
     
  10. Declared unfit for tomorrow.

  11. Not sure that’s the right thing to say tbh.
    Surely not wishing ill on another biker?
     
  12. Eh?
    I enjoyed seeing Martin dominate.
    Thought Fabio Q went well, likewise Ogura.
    Its true not much happened up front. And I hope Marc is ok too. Looked a nasty off and lucky the bike missed him.

  13. “5th metatarsal fracture on his right foot”
     
  14. That will explain the hobbling.

    I still wouldnt rule him out of the championship with the way things are dove tailing between the top three or four riders though.

    We all know how it usually ends…
     
  15. Hot and sunny at Le Mans today.
    Although some heavy rain in the area.

    Saw Marc Marquez come off, but not like watching it slow- mo on an 8k TV !
    When he came past on the scooter I thought he was applauded rather than booed.
    The crowd at the gate
    Marc Marquez after his crash in the Sprint race today
    Heavy rain and thunder near Le Mans but missed it so far.
