    could well be back to back wins for him...i bet Ducati are wishing they gave him what he was asking for earlier..it must be frustrating for a rider when they don't listen to you,especially if your a 5 times world champion!

    Wow watched Dutch moto gp , how many of the leaders nearly spilled and the passing move's were amazing ! You couldn't keep count as they happened so thick and fast ! SWMBO and My good self disappointed Marquez won again Rossi or Lorenzo were our fav's but didn't happen and only one spill I believe ?? Ducati had one two mid race and then by lap 17/18 they were fading and gone by lap 19/20 ?

    Was awesome race so much happened it's hard to keep it all in !

    Been out playing on my bike today so just watched the MotoGP now,fantastic racing:cool::eek:,How lucky was Rossi not to come off after ramming Lorenzo's bike? Although Marquez is my favourite I would have liked to see some of the other guys win great to see Rins get a 2nd place..even though Marquez has a healthy lead at the moment it's still all to play for

    you're probably right but anything can happen,it's quite possible that Marquez could have a few DNFs,although I think this is the first weekend for ages that Marquez hasn't crashed at least once finding the limit during practice or Qualy

    That's one GP circuit I've never been to ,,probably cause it's full of Brits and it's usually raining! it would be a fantastic place for a track day though

    Agreed, a great achievement. It's a pity he is such an unlikeable lad.......

    Marquez is only doing what Doohan did in the nineties, he’s got Honda to build him a bike he can use in ways other riders can only dream of, some of those saves have defied the laws of physics quite frankly. The big shame for me as a Rossi fan is that Yamaha have failed to give him what he wants to ride it like he can, he’s just been quoted after coming out of a technical meeting at Motegi as saying he is telling the bosses the same thing at each meeting, he may as well switch on a recording and leave a photo of himself instead of turning up. :joy: Hope they can turn it round this winter but with the present regs on winter testing I’m not optimistic :worried:
