For those that follow Moto GP there has been onboard footage of Vinales from last weekend posted on Twitter. How he thought he’d get away with that

Jesus Christ, I thought he'd at least have been clever about it.

For those that follow Moto GP there has been onboard footage of Vinales from last weekend posted on Twitter. How he thought he’d get away with that His last 3 laps have been posted to YouTube on the official MotoGP channel. Not even attempting to follow the racing line, looks like he's out for a Sunday cruise. Deliberately riding at the rev limiter all the way down the home straight. Imagine being one of his mechanics who's been working hard all weekend and seeing him riding like that. youtu.be/LP3n-M6B_hs

MotoGP qualifying was fantastic today. Amazing lap by Quartararo, then just bettered by J.Martin in the last few seconds. Martin is all-action on the bike, amazing to watch and a star of the future for sure.
Someone at work was complaining that with VR46 retiring they don't have a reason to watch any more, I told them they were crazy, there are loads of really talented riders coming up from Moto3 and Moto2. Pedro Acosta had done incredible things in literally his first season on the bike.

As much as I love Rossi if you’ve only been watching for him the last few years then you’ve not been enjoying the racing anyway. So many good riders in all classes right now

Exactly. IMO the best racing recently has been Moto3, some of the most entertaining racing I've ever seen, from any Motorsport. Pretty scary sometimes though with them all so close together.

Excellent second place for Romain Grosjean in the Indycar. Hugely enjoying watching him this season. Great Indy debut for F2’s Christian Lundgaard too, qualified fourth and finished twelfth.

What a race that was. Brad Binder incredible last few laps there

That was insane, how Binder managed to stay on the bike at the end I have no idea. Thought Rossi was gonna get his 200th podium for a little while

Holy shit. What a race.
Binder is the main rider I follow as well, so it could not have been a more perfect race for me. I was shitting myself that whole last lap.

Everyone is upset that Lando posted a picture of him dressed up as a Mexican. Fuck off world.

Looks like he just wanted an excuse to Stoke the fire for Russell at Mercedes and wrote a load of nonsense to go around it. Biggest giggle was Lance Stroll retiring from a team literally bought for and built around keeping him in F1, at 26 years of age.

Will Buxton is an acquired taste and one that I've yet to acquire.
Le Mans this weekend. Last year of the top class being a total forgone conclusion, thankfully. Behind that though, LMP2 looks interesting.
Would like to see Davidson beat Di Resta, also would be nice if Kubica did well. In an ideal world Montoya would win the whole thing just to see Alonso's reaction at being beaten to a modern era triple crown by someone who's not even that bothered.

Yeah, the LMH class is sorely needed and 2022 is looking good. Hopefully it'll catch on with more manufacturers willing to build thoroughbred racing cars as I wouldn't like to see the top tier of endurance racing filled with dolled-up road cars. Sports prototypes have always been the coolest racing cars.

After his recent shenanigans it should come as no surprise that Yamaha have sacked Maverick Viñales with immediate effect. It's been confirmed that this leaves him free to possibly ride for Aprilia before the end of this season.
Cal Crutchlow will partner Fabio Quartararo in the factory Yamaha team for the upcoming British GP at Silverstone

That's still nuts, though, and if I was Aprilla I'd be looking at the T&Cs of the contract to see how well they are covered for if he does something similar to them. Just crazy that he's essentially getting what he wanted by being a totally selfish dick.
It'd be like Harry Kane deliberately injuring teammates in training to ensure he gets sacked by Tottenham and then immediately moving on a free to City.

Yeah, exactly. He's got previous form from his early days in 125s as well, just decided he wasn't happy one time and flew home in the middle of a race weekend. Aprilia are taking a huge risk with him, there's no denying his speed but he certainly is volatile and I don't think he'll ever be champion unless he sorts himself out
Happy to be proven wrong though

I'm seriously impressed with Remy Gardner this year, hope he can pull of the Moto2 championship. He would be better off at Red Bull KTM next year but Tech 3 will have to do. I remember watching his old man in his prime.

I can see Tech 3 getting a whole lot of support next year from full factory. They’ve basically had their hand forced into taking Gardner and Fernandes for next season so there must be some perks coming their way. Even though it would seem that it’s an upgrade in riders anyway

Latest rumours are Darryn Binder and the return of one Andrea Dovisioso in the soon-to-be-renamed Petronas Yamaha team for next year

Yes I believe so. Be good to finally see Franky on a full factory spec bike!
