So in FP4, MM93 nerfs Karel Abraham out of the way, in doing so breaking his own bike and once again endangers others. I hope he gets a penalty for that. Some things never change. He's been an asshole since he started and still is.

Zarco showed us how to not act when you crash. He had no awareness at all of the potential for another crash, and ended up getting tagged because of that.

I viewed that incident through a different lens. I saw Márquez on pace and Karel was a bit off line and parking it in the turn. Karel came back down into the race line (still off pace) just as Márquez was closing in. They bumped, Karel stayed up, and Márquez lost a winglet.

I think you’re making too much of that contact.

Good to see Zarco OK.

That was brutal and he was damn lucky that the bike was sliding and not tumbling.

MM Rules MotoGP. Amazing talent :hail

Great to see Fabio and Jack on the podium. Solid job by each.

Bye JLo.. thanks for the memories. Your dedication, talent and amazing effort is so notable. :wave :hail :wave

Holy hell, you all know I hate Zarco but I never want to see that again. At least keep your head on a swivel dude. I guess when I crash in a MotoGP race I'll have more room to talk.

Either that or the trellis frame gods are punishing Zarco.

FP4 MM93 vs. hack abraham was much ado about nothing.

A bit off line? There was so little room that MM ran into him. In FP4 a meaningless practice. He doesn't care. He's shown that over and over. If it had happened in the race, I would have shrugged my shoulders. He chose to risk bodily harm in a meaningless practice.

I think you think what I thought may be mistaken.

That was brutal! :wow

Amen. I suspect he learned something. :laughing

Reminded me of one of my first race crashes, 1989 or 90. Oil at T3 top at Sears Point. Guy in front of me tucks and goes down. I hit the oil patch and go down. As I am sliding in, he is standing, back to the track, with his hands on his hips staring at his bike. I run by him and dive over the tire barrier as the next bike comes auguring in. He suddenly realized where he was and followed me.

I watch most of them too. No Acid involved. :laughing

Must have been tripping. In what world does Jorge quit MotoGP, Valentino come in mid pack, and some unknown rookie take pole, while an English guy ends up on the podium?
