This is it, we are here again.

Miracles happen, but Dovi needs an unlikely win in Valencia paired with a DNF by Marquez in order to manifest the impossible.

Clearly, the money is on MM. I doubt he will take many chances, knowing he only needs to finish 11th or better in order to secure the title.

Let's hope they both make the podium. Dovi deserves a good finish here...if not the whole pie.
 
Dovi has been very consistent and a class act unfortunately for him he had the perfect Ducati season and still couldn't get it done. 3 dnf by Marquez the season really shouldn't have been close but I like dovi a lot so very happy for him.

I'm rooting for Desmo Dovi, best hope is some Italian nationalism comes into play, along with sweet revenge. No matter what MGP has put on one hell of a show this year. And I sure as hell hope Dovi gets a BIG FAT raise in pay.
 
i hope rossi gets in there and "tries for the win", just like marquez did at sepang in 2015.

i still cant believe what a .... he (i.e., marquez) was/is for doing that.

Look at the Yamaha struggle, and Marquez is the only routinely running up front. Even with all of Ducati's problems, maybe it's best bike on the grid. Jorge showed glimpses of potential, Petrucci was competitive.
 
Yamaha is having problems with the new bikes , I expected more from Viñales this year . last years bike looks to be better How is that possible ? from the interviews with Yamaha it looks like they have lost the plot . literally admitting they don't know why the bike is worse than last years bike. and admitting they don't know what to do. :eek: don't care about yamaha as much as ducati but I find it interesting they are in such disarray in such a short time.

I'm not on the band wagon of I hope Rossi pays marquez back for the stuff from 2015 IMO poor form .



I will be pulling for ducati and Dovi but if marquez wins I will not be disappointed I just don't see how you could not respect his talent (I feel the same way about all the Mgp riders, but marquez is a bit of an enigma)
I do hope there is some real racing in the first few laps so at least the final run for the championship is a nail biter .
 
MM is goin to
Take that Home

The duc squad is looking good for
Next year

Vinales needs to work on his mental strength
 
Marquez did what in 2015 please someone explain what happened in 15 with facts. Are u 46 babies still playing a narrative that does not exist? Jorge was the 15 champ cause he was the best rider in 15 end of story. Marquez won in 16 and 17. Rossi not even relevant and Yamaha killed itself no rider to develop the bike now that jlo gonr and if they take mavericks input rossi will be even worse.

OK refute this please in 15 rossi won 1 race that's 1. Jorge had the most wins the most led laps the fastest laps. I believe the most poles too. Marquez won Australia so that's not even a point and rossi lost it in sepang as he was throwing away the championship. Rossi lost 15 because of rossi only winning 1 race not because of Marquez winning Australia. If u want to blame someone in Australia blame iaonne he beat rossi last lap but that doesn't fit your narrative or how about Danni for beating him at aragon that doesn't fit either

rossi was a challenger for the title at sepang. marc wasnt. thats the point. some people may think "marc has every right to challenge for the victory REGARDLESS." others will say he was clearly messing with rossi's title hopes simply because he dislikes him. no right or wrong here. everyone is entitled to his/her own opinion.

hayden won a world title even though he didn't have the most race wins that season or proved himself the most dominant rider. sometimes it turns out that way. i agree that jorge was the stronger rider that season. and yes, i agree rossi's supreme lack of judgement cost him dearly that year.

still, having said all that, i still don't like what marc did, not just because it was to rossi. i'd have felt the same way if he did it to any other rider who was fighting for the championship.

no "46 babies" here.
 
I STILL Dont know why Rossi's name is coming up on just about every post...I thought this was about Marquez and Dovi??????????????????

those who keep bringing up Rossi are idiots.
 
Never in my life has a race made me feel so frustrated and sick. WTF was Jorge thinking? What an ........ If MM never saved his mistake it could been Jorge robbing his own team of the title.

Jorge is officially up their with my most hated peoples along side Wayne Rooney and Lewis Hamilton...... you ....... ......!

why? because (pre-race) i was thinking rossi (like zarco and iannone) could've been a factor that might play a part in dovi and marc's race result. it happens all the time in racing. if you're too dim to understand that, then maybe you're the ......
