Well, it looks like Marc Marquez has retired, due to his Diplopia. [bigsad][bigsad][bigsad][bigsad]

That’s a shame. Still, it’ll give the field of also-rans a go now. That’s going to bollox Honda for a few years while they learn to make a bike that people can actually keep upright.

After a bit of searching I can only find reference to that on one site, and that was published on the first of April. Let’s hope it’s a joke.

Pretty **** poor 'Joke', in my mind, using someone's medical condition as material.
Anyway, the good news, from the info on the Argentine Qualifying Grid report, is that Marc is improving and will be back competing in the not too distant future.[bigrolf]

I'm usually pretty easy going, but even I thought that was poor form.

MotoGP requires a lot of watching if you follow the practises, qualifying and then the race in each of the classes.

Its often on at the same time as F1 , (same practise and qualifying/racing sequences) , Supercars (practise/qualifying/shootouts , super2/3) , Nascar , then add Superbikes if youre still keen , and in my case FIM Speedway which I love.

Is too much motorsport ever enough?

No wonder my wife mows our lawn....I love her a little mower every day.

I pretty much only watch Moto3 these days,, no scripts, no team orders.
Young Aussie Joel Kelso been doing well the last two races( before falling off on the last corner last week while in 14th?),, just standing in this year before a full season ride next year.

Bugger! That’s going to upset a few people as the silly season approaches.
