Helluva punishment all right. His apology sounded sincere and only had one ‘but’ in it. Did they revoke Tyson's license after he bit a chunk out of Holyfield’s ear?

They are definitely taking this kid to the woodshed over this. Will be amazed if he ever races again.

Not MotoGP but I watched the final Canadian Superbike race today and interestingly enough a Kawasaki won the race, he came in 5th in points standing but at least there was something other than a BMW in the top 10 for once...might as well be a BMW series. Suzuki and Honda didn't even show up.
I read the 2018 GSXR1000 was the best GSXR ever made....how is it showing in the other Superbike series....?

Toni Elias and Roger Hayden (about to retire!) have been doing well on it here in the US, trading race wins with the Yamaha of Beaubier pretty regularly. Brad Ray seems to be doing well in BSB. Not sure about their World endurance team results. Alas WSBK is all but void of GSXR's right now. But then that's nothing new, Suzuki hasn't had a strong presence there in years.
A couple things here: a) this is a bike which is not on a track nor is it engaged in a Superbike circuit, b) whomever is riding it at 300kms/hr isn't even wearing gloves or a jacket so is therefore in my eyes a nut.
Last years model GSXR1000 won the Australian Superbike Series last year , and this year Honda CBR1000 won .
I heard Mat Mladin bought a place in Arizona years ago. Does he still live in Australia? Met him at the Sonoma Raceway years ago. He and ‘elbowz’ were fighting it out every race back then as riders for the same team, something like Rossi and Lorenzo did.
He has just started a race team in Australia , runs a Suzuki 600cc in Supersport class bike ( at least one bike ) and next year I believe he is running a Superbike Suzuki again in that class also . Think he has come back to Australia to be more involved with young riders and Australian Racing , but don't know much about his personal movements .
Good to hear they (Suzuki) are doing something out there.

Their MotoGP bike is right there with the Yamahas at this stage. Just needs the right guy twisting the throttle on the right day now.

Jordi Torres gets the call up to fill in for the injured Tito Rabat on the Avintia Ducati for the next few rounds. Rabat was horribly maimed in the practically, criminally, unsafe fiasco that was the ill fated Silverstone round, as you may recall.

Marquez hitting back in FP2. He better now that they named a turn after him at Aragon yesterday.

FP2 and they all chucked on softs to make sure to get into Q2. Aragon has a few of those left hand corners Marquez loves so much.
Watching them brake is a gas! Imagine the forces placed on the front tire when the rear tire is off the ground by 4-6 inches.
