I written this before but: repeat, repeat, repeat....
With your American exchange rate you guys should spring for Dorna's streaming. (MotoGP.com). So far this week(end) I've watched the practice, qualifying for all three classes, a pile of videos explaining/hyping their griping, replayed MM's recovery on turn 12 five or six times to see how that was possible... and I can watch the race live or in the morning, or next week (again) and then again for the heck of it.
If you are a GP race fan this package is worth the coin. 139 pounds per year isn't cheap but on a mid winter Sunday morning when I go out to the shop, pick a race at random and listen to sound of bikes howling; every penny is well spent.
On to this weekend: Danny Kent (Moto3) got hosed in Qualifying. For the big boys: the Crown isn't being awarded this weekend. Probably not to VR in Spain either. Even as a Rossi fan I think his comments in the pre-race press were a tactical mistake.
To paraphrase an unruffled Lorenzo: the proof will be out on the track.
