Motogp 2022 - Rider Poll

I voted Quartararo, but I see a lot of potential riders end up on top. They seem to be quite close to each other. Let’s just hope no manufacturer messed up their bike, to put them out of the championship before it even started.

I have never been a big Marquez fan, I never quite forgave him for crawling up Lorenzo’s butt. But I always liked the Doctor, so I’m biased. If he is actually fit though and that Honda is going well, everyone will have a fight to look forward too. That guy is just so incredibly fast and the way he seems to get out of a certain crash without actually crashing, incredible. I got to admit.

 

I see 4 possible winners, but if Marquez is 100% fit he has to be favourite

 

The Yam is too slow now, all the other bikes have moved on more than they have. Marc is always there but is only another bad crash away from disaster with either his eyes or arm injury.
Pecco was super fast at the end of last season and confident enough to fight with Marquez, as proven a couple of times, and the Ducati has also improved according to all their riders.

 

Time for a change of engine size? Shake things up a bit?

 

Dunno, they’ve had 990, 800 and now 999 (1000). How about 750, no limit to number of cylinders? They don’t need to go bigger, they’re already insanely fast as they are. Could lead to some exotic motors like the small capacity sixes Honda raced in the 60’s.

 

Anybody but Honda. Voted for Bagnaia. If not him then Quatararo but Yamaha need bhp. Don’t really have a favourite these days so just want to see some good close racing. Ducati also seem to be flooding the field!

 

I voted Marquez not that I like him in fact can't really stand him but the question was who I thought would win.
I always said wait till he has a bad accident then we'll see how he goes well he's had the accident and even no wear fully fit he looked fairly fast.
So if Honda have managed to up the power and handling and he is back to fitness I just think he will be hard to beat again.
should be an interesting season.
seeing which manufacturer has got it right and which ones have dropped a bollock.

 

No prediction from me, I just want to see good racing with different manufacturers and riders winning races, rather than the usual suspects hitting the front all the time.

 

Na make sure I sit on a cushion

 

i think the last 15 years in Motogp have been brilliant with loads of different race winners, i did a quick google for race winners in the last few years: 2016, 9 race winners, 2017 5 race winners, 2018 5 race winners, 2019 6 race winners, 2020 9 race winners, 2021 8 race winners, even in 2014 when Marquez won the first 6 rounds there were still 6 different winners that season. Raul Fernandez might be the surprise this year

 

Have to agree about Raul. He meant business in moto2 and looks certain to follow that in the number one class.
