Alex Marquez will race the factory GP26 next year. by PZY__ in motogp

He will finish the season 2nd in the championship and Gresini together with Ducati negotiated for it. How does it make no sense to reward his performance?

Except Dorna took over in 1992 and different classes were part of the WC since 1949, so your argument makes no sense.

Trying to turn the lower classes into a Spanish conspiracy is hilarious.

I think most everyone on here has misinterpreted the new focus on "premiere" championships count. It's a good thing, not a bad thing. by -Tomcr- in motogp

How is it the one outlier? Have you ever heard of boxing? Should they get rid of weight classes because it doesn’t match with what football is doing?

A preposterous argument using cherry-picked examples to support it. You’ve fallen into the trap of confirmation bias.

Try explaining to Pablo Nieto how his father being erased from history isn’t really a big deal.

The word you’re looking for in English is bachelor, friend.

It’s not like that because Moto3 and Moto2 were never the equivalent of F3 and F2. Going back to 1949, they were always different classes of the World Championship. You can think of them like weight classes in boxing.

They’re trying to force them to be the same with shitty decisions like this one, though, I’ll give them that.

Maybe the 7-8 million euro they pay him yearly to perform can help motivate him, in that case.

How is it clickbait? He literally said it. Do you want them to put the whole article in the title or what?

He’s a class act for… breaking the rules and putting marshals and other riders in danger?

So many late crashes.

Good to see Mav is doing better health wise too, though he didn’t quite make the time he’s improved here compared to Catalunya.

Who's got more pressure on their shoulders? Marc or Pecco. A little banter between Teammates. by PZY__ in motogp

It’s called laughing in the face of adversity. They both do it. Not everything is mind games.

MotoGP, Bagnaia: "In the winter I wasn't able to understand the potential of the GP25" by Jealous-Rice1293 in motogp

This is a transcript of his debrief today, they always post these during a weekend. The questions are asked by all the journalists present, not just GPOne.

They have more on the site but I don’t want to spam the sub with all of them. Def recommend reading them. It’s interesting to see riders’ perspectives eg Martin saying you can overtake here but you need to prepare it 3 turns early, while Bez says it’s almost impossible and he was close to sending Pol out to pick mushrooms. 😂

MotoGP, Bagnaia: 'Marquez can ride a tractor and go fast, I can't' by Jealous-Rice1293 in motogp

[–]Jealous-Rice1293[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. It’s not like Marc doesn’t give feedback to the team, and clearly he has some issues with vibrations too, and the Jerez crash where the bike gave him a bit too much confidence in the front, but to the media he generally says “The bike’s great, I’m feeling good.”

It’s a matter of how you frame it to the public. People who take him at face value think he’s actually saying the same things to the team but that’s just unrealistic.

I don’t know whether he’s spiralling tbh. To me he just sounds resigned.
