Vinales looks to be going through a bit of a rough patch this weekend. Bike played up today (fairing came loose?) and he had his first crash of this season. Qualified a fair way back in the field. Bit of a come-down from the previous few rounds!
I haven't watched any of the sessions, but it's mad Maverick hadn't crashed once this season until now. He said in an interview at the last round he feels he has loads more speed to find in the bike, as he hasn't found the limit yet. Guess he did today! Still great to see his progress.Vinales looks to be going through a bit of a rough patch this weekend. Bike played up today (fairing came loose?) and he had his first crash of this season.

It was a shame that the yellow flags stopped MM from showing what was possible. I still think it is going to be a good race as MM is looking racy and he has nothing to prove except get stuck in and use the race as a test to get upto speed. He has no skin in the game this year so can just ride for results.
On another note , what was going on with the Moto3 qualifying ? I`ve see a tweet and short video about some mechanics from another team stopping a rider from exiting the pits, looks like they hit his kill switch ???

Yep, Max and Sterilgarda have officially apologised, so I guess those guys are sacked. Crazy thing to do.On another note , what was going on with the Moto3 qualifying ?

Its nuts ..... They must know there are cameras everywhere. Someone must have told them to do it....... dirty tactics. I wouldnt be surprised if penalties are awarded if it has come to the attention of the race stewards.Far Cough said:

It seems they dabbed his front brake a tad. Apparently there is data to back that up.On another note , what was going on with the Moto3 qualifying ?

Is this to do with a rider chasing for a tow, that does not shock me that much actually, if I was running a team and had spent all weekend seeing the same rider looking for a tow off my rider I would probably come up with something like this, it is incredibly frustrating. Was it Oncu by any chance?
For sure the wrong thing to do.
but Moto3 is full of idiots, yet how often, in fact nearly al the time, even on tracks where a two is needed or necessary do you see the guy doing all the work on his own hardly lose anything,
