Complete & Utter Farce

Ken walburn · Apr 10, 2018

Moto GP Argentina, what complete & utter farce from the beginning to end. Saturday, Canet let off a blatant intentional take out of another rider. Sunday, everyone on grid except Miller on wets for sighting lap. Oh dear let's delay the start & let everyone else change bikes to slicks! Should have started race & then allowed people to change bikes after lap 1. Then Marques stalls on grid & breaks every rule in the book & only gets a ride through! Then he knocks another rider off the track from behind, has to give back one place! Then knocks Rossi off bike from behind & is penalised after race! Complete & utter mismanagement of riders throughout the whole weekend. IMO Miller lost race due to decision. His team must be furious. IMO Marques should be given a one race ban & points on his licence. What do you think?

agreed. Marquez should be punished severely.

There needs to be a limit to the number of infringements a rider can make before being disqualified.

Race start organisation was pitiful.

After watching the highlight,s it should have started as the grid positions were then if the riders wanted to come in and change bike or tyres so be it. Marquez needs a chill pill and a proper talking to but after all the comments posted on here I was expecting something much worse. He was very lucky to stay upright after running into Espargaro it's extremely rare not to see a front wheel come second in that situation. You cannot knock his speed though.
