Lotsa bullshit rules considering it's supposed to be 'prototype' racing.

Maybe they need headlight decals. Grin

It’s the F1 of motorcycle racing.

I don't watch F1 because of all the bullshit rules...

it is interesting that there's no mention of the protest on the moto gp site.

That’s because Dovi was setting the pace and no one was in a hurry to test the longevity of the Michelins. I think the walking wounded, like Cal and MM, appreciated the sedate pace. The Yamahas also preferred it since they still don’t know if their tire gremlins have been exorcised

Rins was looking racy.

Rookies did pretty good, other than Q's warmup bobble (but geez even then he was within a second of arguing with Zarco over the first point!)

Dunno why Danilo looked so down, maybe the bike is tiring him out.

Ducati put a tire cooling device on.
Honda's had a brake cooling device on since mid last year IIRC.

Dovi handled MM again on the last-corner challenge.
And it's at 4/1 now, or 5/1?
That's gotta burn MM's cookies.
It'd be interesting to watch them all and see how Dovi pulled it off.

How in the world did Iannone drop his bike on the cool off lap?

Quartararo set the fastest lap during the race. He might be mixing it up with the big boys during the season.

Yes, if Q can get over the yips, he'll be fine!  popcorn

Apparently Danilo gambled on soft/soft, but the track temp didn't drop and I suspect he burned em up.

Appears the paint gave way and seat foam dislodged with it.
What do you reckon DP ?

That foam had a firm board backer. I think it had some sort of clip that failed.

Miller recounted: "The seat is glued on to the subframe, and the subframe being painted, the paint didn’t stick well enough, and the glue ripped the seat and the paint off.“
