Definite future world champions - or not!
Tim G replied to bluebee's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Thought exactly the same, he looked class and I thought he was destined for the top. -
Good top two, happy with that to start with.
-
Well done to Fabio on his title win, richly deserved. Next year could be special with Fabio, Bagnia and Marquez fighting for the championship. Cannot understand how Binder got the Yamaha ride and that team looks weak with a past it Dovizioso on the other side of the garage.
-
I think you need to join sky vip first. Very easy to do.

If you buy a chrome cast you will be able to open the discovery plus app on your phone/tablet and send the picture to your tv. I am going to have to show my 86 year old stepdad how to do this which is going to be tricky!! An Amazon firestick or Roku will also work.

Thanks for that, saved me a few quid. -
Great work from Michael Laverty, excellent news that we will have a British Moto 3 team next year. Sam Lowes also extending his Marc VDS contract means we will have a few British riders to follow next year.

I watched the Moto GP race at Becketts/Chapel corners and the interesting thing about Quartararo was how late he got on the power, it was about six bike lengths later than some riders. The BT commentators have said before how he rolls through the corners and this must protect his tyres. Dixon did really well and said he had grip issues on Sunday, sounds like he is on the bike again at Aragon as Vierge has turned down the ride. Will be fun to see what Vinales can do on the Aprillia at Aragon.
-
Also DAZN have just upped the monthly price from £1.99 to £7.99 a month and they don’t have much content at the moment. If they got PL rights you would probably be looking at £20 a month.
-
Vinales got what he deserved from Yamaha so will we see him on an Aprillia before the end of the season? Big weekend at Silverstone for Dixon making his Moto GP debut. Hopefully a young British rider like Vickers or Skinner will replace him in Moto 2 for the weekend.
-
Good to hear that Silverstone has record ticket sales for the GP. Hopefully Dixon will get a ride on the Petronas bike as I can’t see a way back for Vinales at Yamaha after his disgusting actions.
-
Will Vinales manage to last the season on Yamaha after today’s announcement? Hopefully Cal gets the works ride this weekend.
-
Not yet but I will try and catch it later. It makes me feel old as I remember watching him race on a 125cc before he moved through the classes. All you can say is the man had a stunning career and really help put Moto GP on the map. I would think the Sam Marino round will be very emotional.
-
Rossi retires so we were both wrong, maybe his team has signed Vinales.
-
I doubt it will be this weekend as a press conference is being arranged in Saudi Arabia at the palace about the team but has no confirmed date. I agree with you that I think he will be riding so that means Bezzecchi off to Petronas is a possibility.
-
Crutchlow replacing Morbidelli for Austrian and UK rounds. Will do well to get in the top 10 on that bike. Dani Pedrosa also on a wildcard at the Austrian round.
-
The problem is McPhee is nearly 27 and has only won a few races and has never challenged for the title. He is getting too old to move up as teams will be looking for younger riders with different passports. Unfortunately, his current employer has let him down twice so they must not think he has the ability at his age to go further.
-
Vinales is leaving Yamaha at the end of the season and has been officially confirmed. Only seats available are at VR46 and Aprillia but both would be a gamble. Has McPhee really done enough to secure promotion to Moto 2? I wouldn’t be surprised to see him in a Supersport championship next year.
-
Yes, good to see a youngster given another chance. Shame it was not Toprak but he is sponsored by Red Bull so no chance of that happening.
-
Morbidelli out injured this weekend, no announcement if Crutchlow is replacing him yet.
-
Long lap penalty, the team appealed but it was rejected.
-
DORNA need to get really tough on riders for doing it, I agree with you on pit lane starts, it would stop them doing it pretty quickly. Disagree with the Jake Dixon punishment for the Assen race.
-
I think Eddie Stobart are moving into part of the Newbury Showground.
-
I would expect both Petrucci and Lecouna to go and Raul Fernandez to line up alongside Gardner.
