Marquez........Hmmmm......... Good but WTF was going on on the last lap? Not entirely sure who hit who? It almost looked to me like lorenzo turned into marquez when he realised that he had lost second? ...... but today - Crutchlow for me - beaten to hell and still riding like he stole it...... much respect especially after practice yesterday....

Kinda a Simmo move on Lorenzo IMO ,,,youthful inexperiance that could have ended in a DNF for both of them,,,,,the kid IS the one to watch this year however,,,been saying that since last year,,,that said, Moto GP is boring and its future is iffy ,going on like this,,, the real racing is the WSS series , where , there is a "full grid" of the craziest riders on planet Earth going for the gold,,,,

He's crazy fast and aggressive as hell which = fun to watch! I'll be surprised if he doesen't DNF a couple races this year though. Like others have said in some ways his style reminds me of Super Sic but even faster than the late great Simoncelli. I just pray he doesen't cause a serious crash this season between himself and anyone unfortunate enough to be in his path.

With Lorenzo blocking lap after lap, what else would he expect from the guy he is blocking?
Looked rather "Rossi like" to me, of course he would have done it earlier.
Hope Dani keeps from tarmac surfing this year.
Will DePuniet survive another season of leading all motosports in crashes.
Will this bode poorly for me with my DePuniet Shark Helmet?

I think I need just a tad more excitement in my races. I do not think I have seen a greasier track so early on. Not only does Marquez appear to ride the wheels off that Honda, He seems to be able to wrap it into a pretzel and push the limit fuckingmidcorner. We had better watch out for this guy he may make racing even more boring.

Marquez looked apologetic. He went into the corner too hot, IMHO.

No question about it though, MM is on fire. Honda grooms them in the M2 class to be MotoGP champions.

Wasn't a great race, neither was Moto2. I do like MM though. He rides on the edge and its like Stoner was never here. Has totally stepped up, he really is an amazing talent.

Marquez must have seen the same move on the same corner 8 years ago by Rossi on Giberneau.
He was so close to tail ending Lorenzo in the race. Lorenzo got of lightly

Lol great find!

Get used to it! Moto 2 -3 is more competitive in a way as they all run the same engine and are closer together and they do it all the time, nobody seems to mind there.
MM wants to pass a slower rider who is in the way... What would you do? Go "after you sir".... It's a f race!
