MotoGp 2022

What a race eh? For the second, third, fourth and fifth slots that is. Fabio ran off from the first corner and never looked back gaining a six plus second lead at the finish. That boy can ride! So can Mir on the Zook, from 17th to 7th in the first lap finishing in 4th! Not bad for a rider w/o a ride for next season. Poor Rins though, after last weeks DNF and then today thru no fault of his own gets violently taken out in the first corner. Broken wrist/hand maybe? And Taka, after losing the front into the first corner taking out Rins and then face planting into Bagnaia’s rear tire ripping his shield off and snapping his neck back. We have a pretty wide opening on our helmets so hopefully Bagnaia’s tire didn’t saw his nose off. I feel bad for Espargaro too even though his finish was entirely his doing. Coulda finished in second place! Fabio has signed a two year deal with Yamaha and the money musta been enough huh? :laugh: Helluva performance today! 206 mph down the straight every minute and forty seconds for 24 laps!

Yeah it seems that everyone but the officials agree that Taka should be sanctioned. I can’t find any updated info on Taka’s condition other than what Rins said about seeing him in the hospital. Looks like Bagnaia’s tire (did) get to Taka’s face.

”Well, sincerely, first of all I hope that Taka is OK, because I saw him in the hospital with the face very bad,” Rins began.

Taka is staying in overnight in hospital - i guess for observation
Apparently he is 'ok'

Doesn’t it seem a bit odd that there’s no medical update for the only GP rider that was hospitalized? Rins said he saw him there “with the face very bad”. Did he suffer a buzz saw effect on his face?

 
I saw that but why would he do that? The KTMs aren’t exactly running away from the Ducatis and he’s done pretty well with Ducati. I don’t get it.
Not winning enough for Ducati who must've told him earlier this year he wont be needed after this season. Aki Ajo is Jacks manager been like that since waaay back Ajo also has teams in KTM Moto3 and 2.

Maybe the Aprilia seats are gone already ?
HRC doesnt want him.
Satelite Ducati teams dont want him either ?
Yamaha are sewn up and only 2 bikes next year.
LCR , been there done that .
Suzuki.... :crazy:
 
Random thread drift.…

… but I was having a coffee and chat with a guy who lives near me again this morning who I see most weeks.

He won 3 x 500GP and had 3 x 3rds in a season up against Kenny Roberts Jr, Max Biaggi, Valentino Rossi etc.

Chatting about Old Skool bikes he casually mentions he has a brand new R7 Superbike (1999 OW-02) still in the crate.

Interesting guy!
