Possible SPOILERS: Random MotoGP notes and info.

It was very cool to see the Women's MX Series get air time on the Peacock broadcast. One moto on Friday was not shown, but Moto2 on Saturday was broadcasted live. The top 3 women zapped the field and made it really entertaining.

Good on ya ladies!! and good to see the series being featured!

Oops... wrong thread with that. Oh well.

I am going to listen while I work this AM.
 
This is really good. Pedro has a lot of personality showing now that he is comfortable in his MotoGP Star shoes.

At 34;00 he talks about Philip Island as the best track. Damn shame we won't get to see the best guys on the best track. :(

Also Liberty Group.. and growing the sport now that Vale is gone. :cool

Still working my way through the interview.
Some really fun stuff.

Ultimate racing motorcycle. Probably this year with be the baddest road race bike of all time. His description of how the aero works is super interesting.

Pedro's dream car.. F-150.

He thinks Jett Lawrence could become a Pro Road Racer pretty quickly but no matter how good a GP guy (Jack and Mav) they could never rise to that level.

He still lives and home and likes it.
 
And another long one.... insight into the Martinator.

Just clicking it up!
 
"This is a very important victory. Winning on a circuit that runs clockwise is something I've been waiting for...People know I never give up, but I really suffered in the last few laps. The bike was there, but I was completely exhausted...I tried to keep up the pace. I could see Ogura was attacking, but not enough to catch me. This situation made the end of the race particularly grueling," the Spaniard continued. "Those were the six longest laps of the year. Not of my career, but of the year for sure!"

You were my dream, and you’ve become the most wonderful reality I’ve ever known. When I joined MotoGP with Ducati, I thought I’d already achieved something indescribable, but you’ve made me believe in it more and more. Eight years, 31 wins, 63 podium finishes, 28 pole positions and two world titles, twice runners-up in the World Championship – this is the story we’ve written, and it’s ours alone.

We’ve grown together, we’ve weathered every kind of situation together without ever giving up, and we’ve always spurred each other on to give our all.

And you, who are one of the best parts of me, have given me the most thrilling moments of my career; you’ve made me a better driver, a happy young man, and we’ve had such a great time together.

Last season it was difficult to see eye to eye; we clashed more than we’d have liked, and something began to change.

I feel the need to start afresh with a new challenge, but I’ll never forget what we’ve been. You’re part of me, and you always will be.

I love you

Pecco
 
No surprise but did Pedro go to the 2nd best bike?
 
Moto3 going to a spec class 700 cc Yamaha twin in 2028? wow …

MotoGP and Yamaha announce new Moto3 project for the next generation of Grand Prix racing

tl/dr: “At the heart of the project is a new racing prototype developed by Yamaha, based on its proven CP2 production platform and extensively re-engineered for Grand Prix competition. The ultimate objective is to achieve a superior power-to-weight ratio compared with the current Moto3 machines, while introducing a full-size motorcycle better suited to the physical characteristics and riding style of the next generation of riders.”​


:dunno
 
Maverick needs to go back to Suzuki.

Attitude and bad luck have fluxored his career.
