Weird weird start to Argentina GP *Spoiler* - the Ferret - 04-08-2018

Who cares? The Masters is on!
RE: Weird weird start to Argentina GP - the Ferret - 04-08-2018
What's that?
What a bizarre race.
Marquez 3 penalties, knocks Rossi down,
Crutchlow wins
Zarco knocks Pedrosa out of the race, and goes on to finish second
Rins on the Suzuki finishes 3 rd
Crazy stuff

That was a wild race for sure. Not sure the Zarco pass was that clean on Dani....what MM93 did was nearly crash a rider and then crash a rider. I can't believe they didn't black flag him.
I need to go back and watch when Rossi put him off track....he was buzzing Rossi and he just got tired of it. With MM93 today he just pushed him out of the way.

Marquez walked down to Rossi pit to apologize , but Rossi was having none of it, and Rossi's best friend interceded
Miller gets a head start at the beginning of the race, because he was the only one to show up on slicks after it was called a rain race and all the other riders went back to the pits? That one confused me.
Marquez was told to go to the pits on the starting line after stalling his bike but he bumps starts it and gets back in line, then gets a ride thru penalty while leading the race and re-enters in 19th place, and literally blows by, and thru people.. the reason for the other penalties.. (a lose 1 position penalty and a 30 second penalty for reckless riding) on his way to finishing 5th
Crazy I tell ya

And COTA is up next....it's his to loose.

Well I’m confused. Patrick Reed won. And he didn’t bump Fowler or Spieth or anybody else.

LOL... The Masters was awesome this year.

I thought I heard on the news the other night that Tiger was going to win.

Crazy race. I mean wow. The whole thing was beyond bizarre.
Overall, Marquez seemed out of line. Hope this is a learning moment for him. It was a tough track with very little room to pass due to the dry line but he did not need to do what he did.
A little more patience and he finishes something like 5th to 7th and picks up some points and controls the damage. Maybe something like 9 points out of the championship lead. Now he's something like 18 back. Not a big deal, he was further back than that this time last year - when he crashed in the lead.
