MotoGP Round 10 - TT Circuit Assen - Assen, Netherlands - **Spoiler Possible**

[budman]

Assen... the name means racing to me. A lot of brilliant action has been seen at this venue.


The circuit has had racing every year since 1955 except 2020. Wonder what happened that year

Pecco holds the current layout track record at 1;31;866


Pecco has started to roll so this track might be another good shot at a win and certainly a podium.


Marc won the GP over Bez and Pecco last year with the Orange wonder 4th.


Weather is looking good and that means game on baby!


I think this will be a great race with the Aprilia's and Ducati's on pretty equal ground.

I am looking forward to Ai continuing his strong run and several dude should be in the mix at the front.

Points have tightened up significantly with the Factory Aprilia boys issues.


Who do you think with rock the Circuit TT??

It's going to be a showing of red versus purple, everyone better keep their wits about them! Though I wouldn't be surprised if Acosta wants to officially brush shoulders with his future teammate "hey look what I can do".

If you have a MotoGP subscription the Gear up is pretty sweet.
With all the rider changes etc.. some good info and fun.

voted for Bez cus I think he's gonna bounce back, still expect Ogura to be in the top 5.

Watching practice starts right now. No more launch device.

Guess what... they look very solid. Easy to concentrate in practice, let's see what shakes in the race.

Fabio is really a bad ass rider. How he rides that Piano so fast for a lap is a beautiful thing.

On to Q2.

FUCKING EH!!!!




Kicking ass over all the factory teams!!!



Digi with a solid ride to beat both Bez and Martin.


Marc was 7th and was a bit of a surprise to me, but historically Assen is not a good track for him. Pecco running off track on the final lap gave Marc 6th. I am sure he will take it.

Seeing the Podium dudes concern when they saw Bez's crash was a real moment. Seems like Bez is not too hurt. Hopefully that is the case. ONE FUCKING HEAVY CRASH.

The podium was pretty special too. Never seen a Moto lift like that. Pretty cool.

Thrilled that Ogura pulled it off. 22 teams is one hell of a famine. I really hope Yamaha pulls out the stops and gives him a competitive bike; I’d love to see him win it all.
