Even the lay 2 laps that were tame by comparison, still had some aggressive passing. It was awesome!

 Shocked Shocked Shocked Don’t pack the haulers. Let’s just race here for the rest of the season. 10th to 1st right out of the gate for Lorenzo, soft front couldn’t hang. Rossi and Jorge made simultaneous saves.  bow down MM made yet another ridiculous save. Dovi and the Golden Boy had a moment.  Evil My boy had a great race.  applause applause Rins was mixing it up with the big boys.  Evil

The Moto3 race was good too. Several contenders crashing out at the end.

Moto2...kind of a snoozer with Bagnaia leading from start to finish.

The lead pack was lucky that Rossi and JLo didn't go down, that would have been horrendous.

Vinales found his Mojo, hopefully he can keep tabs on it for a few races.

Jlo smoked off the front tire (?).

Rins gettin' after it, good to see more different riders on the podium.

For some reason Rossi got into a braking duel with Dovi, rather than let him go past/undercut/race him for the next corner.

I think MM just hung out to swap paint for a while, then took off.

At the press conf MM explained that his preferred fast line are more sweeping in Assens, but he needed a gap to really use them. Basically every time he tried to use them someone would dive inside.

You can barely see Rossi on that photo and he was up there the whole time. I think he would have managed 2nd place if he could have just dove on the inside after letting Dovi go into turn 1 too hot.

Very likely.

Dovi said they each released the brakes twice trying to get the upper hand.  laughingdp
