A guy that can get that Honda on the podium in the sprint race when there’s no need whatsoever for him to push that hard? I think you are probably underestimating him. We will see!

IMHO…. MM can’t do enything special in Ducati next year, he is too old and too many broken bones..he is yesterdays news.

I tend to agree, 7 titles.

Shame he is not as entrepreneurial as Vale, could have been easier to retire now.

MotoGP level is very high these days, Martin, Marini, Pecco, Bezecchii all excellent young riders.

You think he’s got out of his contract and moved for the money? I don’t think he’s short of the stuff.

Didn't mean that. My guess is that he has nothing to do outside of racing.

I reckon he still desperately wants to win and he has zero interest in retiring yet. He’ll be on a bike that’s capable of winning so it’s going to be interesting to see how he adapts.

What a shame, I really hoped for Martin

Another very nasty crash for Marquez

Hopefully ok for testing. In the garage and not in the medical centre.

Probably a fraction too aggressive from Martin… shame.

If you add up the total air time of MM this season from crashes, it’s pretty high. But yes in this instance it seems Martin tagged him and off he went. The bounce he had coming off the ground from the initial hit on the gravel, whoaa don’t recall seeing that before. He looked like a basketball being dribbled. Not sure how he got up after that.

Binder… since when does being told to drop a position, overtaking someone and they overtake you back count as dropping a position?

Macattack · Nov 26, 2023

World champion and race winner Pecco Bagnaia. He definitely earned it with cool /smart racing. You just cannot discount his talent .

I guess this time it wasn't his fault, Martin clipped him

Marquez clipped Bezzecchi earlier.

"Can you understand why no actions were taken?"
"Because he is Marq Marquez" lol

This is the opposite of entrepreneurial. That's not being a leader. The move to Ducati is being a follower

Did you reply to the wrong post?

What a final race of the season. I felt bad for Martin but I think he'll have his time as champion too.

Macattack · Nov 26, 2023

In an interview on crashnet Martin seems to blame marquez for the crash. I'm not sure what to think

SuperDomestique · Nov 26, 2023

Gotta hand it to Ducati for doing the double-double (B2B WSBK and B2B MotoGP). Not sure a manufacturer has ever done that

SuperDomestique · Nov 27, 2023

Gotta hand it to Honda bringing over a couple Ducati riders to the fold. Marco will be a great pick up for the development of the 24 RCV. It’s looking a lot more like a Ducati already (this is the bike at the Sept Misano test). Just look at that bread box. Will be interesting to see how Tues goes.

Great news about the new signing for VR46!
