The first several laps was some of the most exciting MotoGP racing I've ever seen. I was litterally jumping out of my seat.

If you didn't watch it or record it, there's still another chance to record it: FoxSports2 CH 618, Tuesday 4/29 1am.

The broadcast was 2 hours long. They showed most of Austin the first hour. So the rebroadcast of Argentina starts at 2am.

True, a great race, but those blokes were in a daydream compared to the Moto3 race. Multiple, multiple, overtakes for all the spots and a real cracker of a last corner to the finish. Fenati declared war on Miller and Marquez by nudging both out on the final turn. The race review committee allowed the placings to stand but Fenati was later given a one penalty point punishment for ‘irresponsible riding causing danger to other competitors’.

Jack Miller, an Aussie from Townsville, is a real hard charger and although he did manage, just, to shake Fenati's hand he was clearly, well, I can only say pissed off. Forgive and forget is not in his vocabulary. Despite their smiles both Fenati and Marquez share that hard edge so the claret is bound to flow. Bring it on.

Cheers

++1 on the Moto3. Saw it when I got home from work last night. I was pulling for Marguez who started in the back. It took him most of the race to climb up to the lead pack.

And yes - there was a whole lot of fist shaking and clear agitation from both riders as they crossed the finish line. Marguez probably didn't lose his finishing place but Jack Miller was truely robbed and did well to recover his bike and cross the line in third.

Both Miller and Marquez have very bright futures in MotoGP. I would not be suprised to see both in Moto2 next year.
