must be ok to chop up someone and run them out of first/second place, being an aussie I'm a bit cut by that but I guess shite happens and Jack still leads the championship

Marquez has the best Motorcycle, though.

I think Lorenzo could beat him on equal machinery as he's been doing to Rossi.

I still need to see it better to fully make up my mind but this Argentinian track seems quite fine so far :)


Honda is better for sure but probably not by as much as it looks, without the run off's Rossi and Lorenzo would have been pretty close at the end. Marc has raised the bar, if they were team mates at Honda as may well be the case next year Jorge will be murdered by Marquez's ragged brutal speed and aggression as we have seen so far this year without the high corner speed Jorge is lacking pace he seems unable or less able to ride, point and squirt like the Honda needs to be ridden.
If they were teammates at Yamaha different story JL most likely on top, but maybe not for long as we have seen massive changes in style from MM from 125-Moto2-MotoGP so he can adapt to almost anything JL has been Mr Smooth 250 Biaggi style for as long as I can remember and when things are changed like the tyres this year, he's struggling.
Lucky for him Bridgestone have listened to his constant whinging since Malaysia testing and a new higher side grip tyre will be available from LeMans.

TBH, Lorenzo gave up the fight quite easily in Argentina. I wished to see the same aggression and determination as he showed in Valencia last year. That was awesome.

So the Honda is probably a better bike, but that should not remove any praise from Marquez.

Marquez broke his leg and missed the final pre season test and still blows them all away.

Yeah he did give up easily, not the first time either with Marquez Aragon last year he more or less waved him through as well. Guessing in both cases he knew MM was gonna get past 1 way or another and decided to not fight with him, which I don't like to see but I can imagine why he would rather not battle Marquez.

Like in Qatar this year, if it was a Rossi Pedrosa fight in last laps Rossi would likely have done a do or die move and probably won, but with MM I think he knew he would get payback or end in a accident, makes sense to pick you're fights wisely.

Interesting lead up to Qual this race, top 3 or 4 guys are very close together in practice sessions. A Espargaro may be a good bet for Pole

Fenati makes it 2-2. Wouldn't have dared to bet on that after Austin. 100% clean win this time too.
