Michael van der Mark replaces Jonas Folger at Monster Yamaha Tech 3 for the Malaysian GP, with the German still sidelined as he recovers from illness. Already a podium finisher for Yamaha in WorldSBK, van der Mark is also a three-time winner of the Suzuka 8H - most recently taking victory in 2017 for the first time with Yamaha - and a World Champion, having dominated the 2014 World Supersport season to take the crown. First called up for MotoGP[emoji769] duty to replace Valentino Rossi (Movistar Yamaha MotoGP) at Aragon, that was called off as the "˜Doctor' was passed fit to ride - but Sepang offers him a new opportunity to try a MotoGP[emoji769] machine.

yeah exactly. Marquez cant handle pressure and makes mistake. Ducati Dovi wins championship
 
I'd wish that AD wins the Championship but MM is very fast and talented + way ahead in points. Only a disaster will make that posible which we don't want that to happen.

I didnt say or mentioned of life. I just dont care about MM but that doesnt mean I want him dead or hurt.

Many people "risk" their lives to do their job. I should say injury since death is not common in Motorcycle Racing these days. Nothing special.

People probably are in more risk riding motorcycles on the street.

Hell...Nicky Hayden (RIP) died on the f*king road and NOT on the track.

You asked for prediction. I gave you my prediction.

MM said after PI that he'll be taking no more risks. He can ride more calmly, and even so, with his skill, he'll be able to finish the next 2 races in the top 6 with ease, which would be enough for the championship title.
In the end, MM definitely deserves the title. With 3 DNF's and still leading the title, AD is actually lucky that he's this close to MM.
Again MM has my money, AD has my heart.
 
I do care about MM the young Spaniard I know he is winning the Championship!! He is very talented young rider. Michael Doohan said yesterday. if he stays fit and healthy He will be the best Racer ever since he makes a lot of risky an incredible moves on the bike that many racers don't attempt to try. P1 is right now it's a dry track with wet patches. Rolling on wet tires waiting to dry out to try slicks.

Rossi goes top in FP3. Only rider to crack under 2.00 at 1:59:957

Go VR 46
 
Q2 was wild.

Top 10 within one second and shuffling the order all to the wire.

Prediction: Dovi on podium. I can't tell if MM will win or DNF. Set to be a great race.
 
Rossi is gonna have to pull a pizzapastamafia move.
 
Boring race but great run by the Ducati boys finishing 1st and 2nd, with Dovi coming out on top and keeping the championship alive. MM finished 4th but heads to Valencia with a 21 point lead. If Yamaha were smart, they'd try grab zarco as a factory rider, he was the highest places yamaha in 3rd.
 
Yamaha is quite in a predicament, aren't they? Rossi beat Vinales in the last 2 races also.

As far as the championship, MM has to DNF/not finish in the points and Dovi has to win the race for Ducati to win the championship. I think a DNF is the only way that MM will not finish in the points.

The last rider to win in Valencia who is not from Spain is some guy named Casey Stoner back in 2011, on a Honda. Jorge has the most wins in Valencia at 4 (MotoGP). The winner of 3 of the last 4 race wins are with Jorge with MM winning back in 2014. Both Dani and Vale have 3 wins in Valencia also.

I think today's race results just delayed the inevitable, but a great day for Dovi, Jorge, and Ducati !!!

Miracle is needed like Marquez DNF last race but most likely not.

After watching the most boring race of the year. I was waiting for the Team orders for JL to let pass AD that never "happened....

and Yes anything is possible. We will see at Valencia. Is not over until the "Fat Lady sings"
I still got MM for the win in his back ground even do We want AD and Ducati to win.

Yes. Valencia has been good for Marquez and other Spanish riders with advantage for sure.

See. I do agree on some stuff if it make sense to me. :D
