Lorenzo looked good on practice, such a shame he's nowhere after qualifying.

Just shows the teams change too much for the sake of it when the second yamaha team shows them how....

Is Rins a future world champion?

You've got to feel for poor Fabio.

If he can get qualifying sorted he looks like he could be a threat this year , I would put money on him being a motogp champion in the next few years if he doesn't manage it this year

Quartararo and Rins look like they will be the next big stars.

Dullest race for a while though.

Marquez can only stop himself from being Champion again.

Lorenzo really does look like he is finished. Every other Honda rider beat him.

They were saying that at Ducati a year ago and then he won 3 on the bounce.

The thing with Lorenzo is everything has to be just right for him. He doesn't seem to be able to ride round problems like some other riders.

The fact the MM93 followed him in FP shows he still has pace IMO. He just needs to be more consistent.

You don't win anything in free practice though. Turn up on race day - that's your main job. If you're worrying about little things on your bike then your mentality is weak and that needs working on.

No excuse for Nakagami beating him on an older bike.

He's 32 now. it looks like his best days are gone. Apparently he nearly rode his Honda into the Ducati garage by mistake on Friday. That sounds like someone whose mind is elsewhere.

I don't think he is written off yet.

Miller and Crashlow spend too much time together I think.

I had it on in the background so didn't really watch it but I think about 12 laps went by when nothing the commentators said made me glance up to watch.

Moto2 was something else though - the race start anyway 0_0
