MotoGP Misano 2022

[rodericb]

Great qualifying session in the MotoGP.

In theory should be a great race - Maverick looking competitive, Fabio needing to come through from 8th, Pecco needing the points, Aleix needing the points…
Hopefully they can work out the overtaking…
Was also watching a bit through my fingers re the running into white lines…

Fabio is going to have a hard time, will need a banzai start. Jack has been looking great all weekend, and Vinales has been making quiet, steady progress all weekend. Kinda hard to see past an Italian on the top set though.

Moto3 crashfest already, I think it's 5 or 6 bikes out with 17 laps to go.

Great first race, crying shame for Sasaki, Garcia had his self-inflicted damage limited by the result but I guess that will rumble on to the next round? Not the result McPhee would've wanted, not sure he'll be in the paddock next year.

Best national anthem reedition, ever.

Any news on Dixon?

Crap weekend for him sadly.

Good news, glad he's in one piece shoulder-wise.

Onto the next one!

Great gp race , even on a crap weekend quartararo still gets half decent points

Bastianini starts interview in Italian... "Oh sorry, in English"

[hiccy18]

Enjoyed that, decent race and great seeing Top Gun in solid form. Bit ominous for Fabio but what can he do? He's racking up as many points as he can get.

Vietti hoping off and Canet getting a solid result makes the 2 championship still close but looking very much a two horse race now, Fernandez really flowing well but Ogura takes the most he can get. Racing got a bit strung out though.

Pecco, wasn’t it?

[LukeBrown66]

Is it it me or is MotoGP getting a little boring, even Moto3 is not doing it what it used to these days!

Maybe just a little tired of seeing the same old people every week, maybe the commentary, just seems a little sort of drawn out and tiring!!

[Taita]

I think you've said that about every series and track though no?

[five50]

Amazing how MGP has changed - wasn’t that long ago you NEEDED a Japanese bike - unless you were Casey Stoner. And in the end even he went with Honda.
Now they seem a liability?
Could have watched the whole thing from Mav’s shoulder cam!
Gutted for Jack. First and second for Pecco and the Beast looks ominous for everyone else next season!
Hope Fabio keeps his chin up.

And anyone know why Maverick has the words / name ‘Leslie Chow’ written on his handlebars?

Isn't that the oriental gangster from the hangover films ?

Just find something to do with your time that you like, and enjoy it.

Yes, I think it’s the name of his #1 bike for some reason.
