I love the two nitrous bottles on the ground next to the Maverick on the pole.

In other news, Marquez evens the score. This will be fun to watch.

You all know I'm a Marquez fan, but part of me is really rooting for Dovi to win the title. He's a true gentleman both on and off the track.

http://www.crash.net/motogp/news/882312/1/marquez- saddened-by-grandstand-jeers

Let's see... he ruined the chances of an Italian legend of winning a title in 2015, and this time around he beat an Italian, riding an Italian motorcycle, in Italy. What a "snowflake."

Guess you didn't read everything...

“This honestly makes me sad because the podium I can understand, but what I cannot understand is when you crash and the grandstand cheers,” said Marquez

It saddens me as well that some vitriolic fans would revel in the potential injury of another human being.

I seriously doubt he ruined anybody's chances of winning. He won, fair and square. If somebody else had run a better race, they would have won.

Marquez and Dovizioso are both very good sports.

Unlike some others I could mention.

And furthermore,

“We are riding at 300kph there on the track, we are pushing the limit, our life is there and we can get injured.

“I hope that in the future, minimum my fans never do this with any rider because the feeling is not nice.”

Marquez and Jorge Lorenzo have frequently been booed by fans of Valentino Rossi, after an acrimonious end to the 2015 world championship.


Sour grapes. Losers don't have to be dicks about it.

I'm a fan of a lot of these riders.

It's the fans I'm not such a fan of.

Marquez and his loverboy, JL, should have thought about it before conspiring to screw the GOAT in 2015. They made their bed. Now lie in it.

Oh; come on. Let's not get carried away with offensive photoshops.

I'm a Rossi fan, and I find those two displays both unwarranted and inappropriate.

Both Lorenzo and Marquez are very fast riders, along with the rest of the Moto GP grid. Even if you don't like them, (or even if you do), there's no need to cross way over the bounds of civility.

I like to think we're a bit better than the USA hating NFL jackasses.

It's quite telling that you have these photos... did you take them yourself?

Something in the water out there, I think... not just the smog.

This is pretty interesting:

I remember the e-Race at Indianapolis. It was nice to watch a race without ear plugs even though the bikes weren't (on a whole) terribly fast. Several years later, though, I'm sure these bikes will be VERY different.

I certainly don't have fantasy gay photos of men anywhere on my computer... until you put them there.

In any case, your grapes are sour and your gay photoshops are not appreciated.

Have you contributed financial support to BadWeB? If not, please do so.

BTW, it's a damned shame Michael Czysz is no longer with us. I'm sure he'd've come up with something AMAZING for this new series.

Abe Askenazi (sp?) was working for Zero, I believe. I would not put "Amazing" outside his abilities.

Abe is still the CTO at Zero... but they seem to be more focused on practical transportation, not "HALO" bikes.

That was quite possibly the best finish to a race I've seen in years. Definitely the most exciting this season.

Now that was SWEET! Seeing Dovi snatch victory from Marquez on the last corner like that made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. If he can do the same for Marquez' whole season, that'd be almost as sweet as seeing one of the Factory Yamaha guys win the title. Unfortunately, just like last year, the other factories made a "leap" during the mid-season and Yamaha went nowhere. : (

What looked for the longest time like a faster Moto3 race, turned into another decisive victory for Marc Marquez.

A very exciting contest to watch, too bad about Dovi.
