Smashing race, even though the podium wasn't what I had hoped for.

Great race, although the top 3 is becoming rather predictable - a lot like F1 this season!!

 

[Mephistopheles]

Firstly, surely no one can call that race boring.

Secondly, thanks a ****ing lot BBC for letting me watch the Barry Sheene tribute lap and all those past stars riding his bikes you bunch of ****ing ****s.....

 

[Bushi]

Best race of the season so far.
After Marquez passed Jorge for the first time, i thought it was done and dusted, until Jorge fought back.

A shame they skipped to Rossi when Marquez was just about to make his last move on Jorge.

 

[Bill Boddy]

After what has happened recently it was certainly an eye-opener, instead of Marquez disappearing into the distance Lorenzo still had enough in his tyres to fight back.

There used to be F1 races like that, but they were mainly at Monza with the banked track.

 

[Dizzi]

Only managed to catch the races on catch-up yesterday.
That was so exciting!
Whatever Marquez is on I'd like some - how can anyone be so smiley with a dislocated shoulder & coming second?! If only other sports could accept second place with such a smile and congratulations to the winner.
The adrenalin must be really kicking out those endorphins when you have a last few laps like that Motogp - phew!
To cut the editors a bit of slack they could have done with split screen to watch Rossi/Bautista and Lorenzo/Marquez, great to watch but couldn't show both.
Moto2 was good too - congrats to Redding for the home win.
I don't know if I've not really listened before or if it was just Silverstone crowds but the sound coming from them was amazing. Not only for the Brits either, any good move was cheered on with enthusiasm whoever the rider was. It must boost the riders when the crowd join in.
Not sure where they're off to next but more of the same please (without the injuries)!

Interview with Jorge "George" Lorenzo http://d4nt4ky1.blogspot.co.uk/2013/09/interview-jorge-lorenzo.html

 

[Mephistopheles]

Pronounced Hor-hay... it means farmer...

 

[Jos the Boss]

I know, I was just watching

 

[gethinceri]

I think it means farmer's wife.

 

[Mephistopheles]

Hey Jos the Boss, that's a million times better than McLaren ****ing tuned....

 

[Jos the Boss]

They did a new one last season, not as good but still pretty funny

 

[Incubus]

I thought it was a brilliant performance we saw today.

I'm not sure everybody out there will agree with me but I still think that at THIS POINT IN TIME Lorenzo is "the most complete rider on the grid" (or has that become a registered tTM these days)...

 

[Jos the Boss]

Great race, shame Vale wasn't on the podium

 

[mjo]

I thought the race was quite dull actually.

 

[gethinceri]

Good overtakes and nice to see team mates really battling, season set for a great run in. Shame Rossi couldn't keep up and Crutchlow being done right at the end.
A very good race.

 

[Mephistopheles]

Great race, for a few laps near the end I found myself perched on the edge of my seat, not something I can say about F1 lately.

I've got one complaint though and as usual it aimed directly at the BBC. Why did I have to wait until after midnight to watch the race????????????????

TWATS.....

 

[Bill Boddy]

Because you don't have Freeview and/or a red button?

 

[Mephistopheles]

I have red button but no sod told me it wasn't on BBC2 and finding red button listings is a nightmare as it isn't listed on the EPG...
