This weekend.
Candy Man M&M can clinch...would be back to back Championships for the 21 year old. ( unlikely that he will this race though)
Fight now is likely for 2 nd place with 3 races to go, and that might get interesting
Only time I have found it showing on FS-1 is at Midnight Saturday night/ Sunday morning channel 219

If it begins to rain hard during the race, Marc and Dani had better "box, box, box" to use F1 lingo.

I read that he did a monster stoppie. They use the large carbon discs at Motegi, mandated by the safety committee. Guess Dani was not used to them
My goodness after watching the vid on youtube he doesnt even let off, just lets her fall and peels into a turn. How good are these guys? Amazing.

Interesting grid for tomorrow morning. Dovi on the first pole for Ducati since a number of years, Rossi in second and Dani closing out the front row. Marquez, Lorenzo and Iannone then on second row.
I could certainly go for another win from the old man tomorrow!
And, I am excited to see Luthi on the front row for the Moto2. About time he gets back on the podium.

Yes!
Delighted also that Dovizioso has brought the Ducati this far but we'll see if he can maintain a good race pace.
