Pedrosa would've needed to get heavily penalized for that + 10 on the grid or something  That was really, really bad. He really lacks race awareness at times, he needs to back off prior to the bang. Amazed he was let go of that. Social media of course blaming Lorenzo for everything under the sun, but Pedrosa should know that there's no room for three riders in that spot. World class performance from Márquez either way, had the race completely in the bag no matter who crashed behind him in spite of not even finding an ideal top-end setting all weekend long, just having to rely on endurance pace. Finally had time to watch this last night. Id call it a racing incident. Pedrosa was committed to his line before Lorenzo went lower and Pedrosa likely couldnt see due to being lower than his bike. Absolutely gutting for Dovizioso though. That's pretty much the championship right there. |

Grosjean's days are short in F1 methinks and good riddance. He's lost it. Two horrible mistakes in two races now while his stupid asshole teammate finished 6th today. Haas needs new drivers...lol.

Hopefully Monaco produces a non-Mercedes win. I will be hoping Kimi wins as he so strong there last year. In MotoGP, I'm gutted for Dovizioso and Zarco after what happened in Le Mans. Marquez was unbeatable but Zarco made such an insane pass on lap 1. |

Zarco was out there on a limb looking rather desperate, was lucky not to cause a pile-up taking Márquez and someone else out into turn 1  He needs to calm the heck down to become a championship contender one day. Dovizioso really threw away the win there, unbelievable how hysterical he got. Márquez must've really gotten to him, this was so unlike everything Dovi ever has been like. Márquez did well managine the lack of front end grip on that particular track for his particular bike type and rode well. I really hope Ducati will choose Miller over Petrucci though. The latter has four good races per season and otherwise is a waste of seat (in effect will never be World Champion), whereas Miller actually can develop still. Ducati need to use their heads. Finishing 4th on last year's bike that didn't suit Le Mans at the time was more impressive than 2nd on the new bike that Dovi showed suited Le Mans. Miller on the other hand is someone I could see develop into a serious challenger to Márquez in the longer term and he deserves those resources and a chance to work with Casey Stoner's input and rider coaching. Vettel should be favourite for Monaco but I'm sure the FIA will throw some mystery SC as usual whenever he looks set to win  🖕🏿Mörön🖕🏿 |

Vettel and Hamilton both make me sick. The China GP was the best in recent times, not only for the action, but for Ricciardo's win.

Lommaren Predictions for Monaco and the Indy 500 tomorrow? I bet Ricciardo will dominate until his car eventually breaks down , allowing Vettel/Hamilton to win yet again. I hope I'm wrong though. I can't wait to see what happens down the field though (Stroll, Grosjean, Verstappen, Magnussen) For the 500, my money is on Scott Dixon...

Not sure I'll watch either to be honest  Too good weather to waste my time on a Monaco procession and no TV channel in Sweden broadcasts the 500, which is a bit of a lottery anyway. Will probably tune into a stream for the final 100, then watch the start of Coca-Cola 600 before watching the remainder on Monday morning. Dixon usually fades late on in Indys though, which is a shame since he's my favourite driver. Hopefully you're right and he can pull something big tomorrow, but it's probably going to be someone getting fortunate with a yellow or off-sequence strategy run. Enough crap drivers in an Indy to cause plenty of crashes and extra yellows. Yellows breeding yellows is definitely a dangerous thing at such superspeedways. Wasn't Sage Karam's crash that caused Wilson's tragic passing caused by cold tires after a restart at Pocono there? I watched it live and seem to recall there were scores of yellows due to bad driving that day. The way Karam lost the car didn't seem natural at all to me. Ricciardo should win, but hopefully Ferrari can use Kimi as a roadblock at some stage of the race or he fluffs the start. Vettel needs every single point to counter the rediculousness the FIA engages in. |

Ricciardo starting from pole and Verstappen last  The races aren't broadcast on free to air TV anymore but the highlights are on Monday nights. Verstappen will no doubt get aggressive again which might lead to some action... |

Jorge Lorenzo rolling back the years, and how... even by his stunning Yamaha standards that was something special It'll be interesting to see how he continues this year after Ducati made some modifications to his bike for Mugell, which had great results.  Let's hope Marquez has some poor races so the championship is closer. |

good for Lorenzo but I would've liked to see how Crutchlow would do there. I wonder if Pedrosa will retire. He's been so far off the pace. |

Pedrosa really should retire or consider WSBK but I'm hearing he's off to Marc-VDS Yamaha instead of Lorenzo for next season. Not really sure what the point is with that. He's too big a name to run for a satellite team. |
