Honda are still holding out on the 500 .... might give it to him tommorow?
their bike horribly spat Pol off - electronics ? the poor bugger is in hospital and wont be back for the rest of the weekend. This presents huge responsibilities on Stefan Bradl & maybe Taka and Alex to test and give feedback / direction on the 2022 Honda next week.
I think everyone has their work cut out for them this winter. The Ducati is unbeatable with the current group of riders even down into the non-factory classes. And that's with Zarco having health issues and not being in the mix. Next year there will be even more Ducatis buzzing the field down the backstretch, oh my! Have you noticed how sour Fabio has been even as world champ? He knows he can not keep up with the Ducatis next year without a miracle.HRC are in the crap
Cracking Q2 result for Jorge Martin well done !
The Dukes have locked out the front row and looks like one of them will take the win.

Hi. Will they have a tape recorder making the vroom vroom sounds?New MotoGP (all classes actually) Fuel Regulations coming. No Carbon by 2024, No Fossil Fuels by 2027. By my estimation we have ~8-10 years of good old fashioned internal combustion powered racing at this level and then it will be Electric.
MotoGP, E-Fuel arrives in MotoGP: zero carbon fuel as of 2024
MotoGP: In two years' time, the fuels used in MotoGP will be 40% synthetic, and 100% in 2027. Not only for the premier class, but also for Moto2 and Moto3
Part of the draw of Motorcycle racing, (any motorsport really) are the sights, sounds, smells etc. of the machinery being used in anger! And while they are at it, how much longer will they be able to use actual Rubber tires, Seals, or petroleum lubricants? Without it, you might as well be watching drone racing! Just the singular opinion of a lifelong Motorsports fan.
....and I think many other fans...formula E is very, very boring....
I actually didn't mind the MotoE esp the torque shredding the rear tyres.
It's just not the same though, the smells and sounds are missing....
Article about the above. Hadn't heard Pere Riba mentioned earlier.Didn't see this one coming. Mike Leitner is out of KTM, to be replaced by Pramac man Guidotti. Wonder if Suzuki would take a run at him, as I have been hearing that they have been actively seeking a replacement for the long departed (and deeply missed this season!) Davide Brivio.
Official: KTM confirms Mike Leitner's exit as MotoGP team manager
Mike Leitner leaves as KTM's MotoGP team manager, clearing the way for Francesco Guidotti's arrival from Pramac Ducati.www.crash.net
