MotoGrandPrix- Barcelona 2020

Seeing Husky get a win was cool. KTM maturing?

sorry, I’m slow on the uptake today ... :facepalm

yes, it was awesome to see Husky win the Moto3 race on 9/20 and see team owner Mr Biaggi on the podium with his first-place rider. :thumbup

Who were the talent scouts the Leopard Racing Moto3 team in 2016?

:wave

 

[Map8]

This is why negotiations went on for six months.

 

[Lucky Jones]

:laughing

 

[budman]

Dude must take a lot of shit but is lucky as hell too.
I mean his chair is solid. What a view.

No official word yet about who will fill the two seats at Avintia/Esponsorama-lama-ding-dong Racing next year. Bastianini has been signed by Ducati so he's obviously headed for the second satellite team but the official announcement hasn't been made, yet. There are rumors that the team may be restructured or even bought out by Leopard Racing.

Leopard Ducati would be kinda cool

Leopard has an endless supply of money to launder.

Leopard, ineos, Petronas red bull, monster et al are just in sports sponsorship for the money laundering. They don't need to get their name out there. And you know what? I am okay with their financial shenanigans as long as they keep my favorite sports afloat. There's an insane amount of corruption in all professional sports and as long as the fuckery doesn't influence the outcome of the competition artificially, I say let the fuckery continue

 

[scootergmc]

I'm all for racing in racing too, but let's not put Leopard in the same league as Ineos, Petronas, RedBull and Monster. They're not close. Not even close. Remotely close. Or even estranged cousins.

Easier to say than Avintia/Esponsorama-lama-ding-dong Ducati :teeth

Uccio chair joke was great!

Who is the other team Yamaha rider next year? Does Vinales have a contract for next year, missed it.

Maverick has to be the greatest disappointment for Yamaha.

Yes

 

[scootergmc]

Of course the only thing that frustrates me is Zarco getting the promotion. There's nobody less deserving, but as Clint Eastwood said before blasting me in the face, that's got nothing to do with it. Offhand, I can think of six dozen riders who I'd rather see in that seat.

 

[Map8]

Lots of chatter about the open seat(s) at Aprilia.













:laughing Just kidding. No one cares.

But so true.

Zarco and Iannone on some scrub team makes a lot of sense.

 

[R3DS!X]

Just kidding. No one cares.

:x I care!

I want Aprilla to be successful. Imagine having all the bikes being podium capable.

Also really wanting to see Kawi come back!

Maverick and Quatararo on the factory team.
Rossi and Morbidelli on Petronas

Mad

I want Aprilia to do well also. But I'm not going to worry about it until they step up their program.
