I’m going to strongly disagree. Marquez is an excellent racer. His racecraft is phenomenal. You don’t win races and championships like this kid and NOT be a good racer.

There was no telling who would win this race. Marquez had maintained the lead, but was on an extra-hard rear tire compared to the hard tire Rossi was on .

How about measuring what is used AND what remains?

5.) Electric Headlights

The free engine development is definitely where the advantage has been found.

That's either Alex Marquez or Tito Rabat - Moto2 field.

This is a great idea!

They definitely did! I suffered through the road closures last spring/summer, and had friend witness Dinklage zipping about on one of those old-school Razor scooters near Yorkdale :P

Here you go.

Anyone watch a Moto3 qualifying?

I would argue that. Where the IOMTT is unique is in the road circuit itself and the dangers it offers - it's do or die.

Back in the day, the IMOTT was part of the GP circuit, but it was deemed to dangerous (in part by the rider) and made uneligible for Grand Prix status.

Motorsports stars Valentino Rossi, Flavio Briatore, Fernando Alonso and Heikki Kovalainen were on the list of hacked accounts.

I'm not going to camp out in a lane following every other person if that's going to create undue risk for my safety.

The bikes change from year to year based on specific rule changes which come into effect. Much like in F1, there are rule changes concerning the weight of the bike, the amount of fuel it can use, engine limits and capacities, electronic packages, and even brakes.

Correct, it's a guard for the brake lever.

The discussion of "safety" needs to be broken down, I think.

This may be an obvious question, but is there a distinction between an "Owner's Manual" and "Service Manual" with autos?

All right, I know I've said my piece, and that this is a few days late now, but I came across something today which should have hit me sooner.

Really? So only the competitors are justified in caring about "who ends up where?" It's called a RACE! I watch the specific races I do because I am fan of those sports in particular. But what makes them exciting to watch is the battles which take place, the swapping of positions, the potential knock-outs. That's…
