    2017 MotoGP

    Ok let's get the new season started!
    Teams have done their launches and we are into the first testing.
    Damn, who is the quickest, a Ducati test rider, some guy called Casey.
    Scary that he is still that good and amazing to think how interesting it might have been the last few years if he stayed and rode against Marquez. Pity he couldn't handle the downsides to the sport, the media, the general bullshit, he really seems like he should have been a 70s/80s rider before before it became so over the top. Yes he is a whiny bitch, but damn he could (can!) ride.

    So who is your money on?
    Wil Marquez continue? Rossi show his experience? Lorenzo master the Ducati? Or maybe someone else, Dovi, Cructhlow or Vinales show some consistency?

    Bring it on!

    I just hope KTM isn't a complete embarrassment. At the front, I'm still a Yamaha fan. I'd love to see Maverick come out guns ablaze and be in the title fight.

    A KTM placed ahead of Lorenzo in yesterday's testing at Sepang, so that's promising.

    Oh, that's another thing. I'd love to see Lorenzo fail on an epic level

    Tech3 all the way, basically a dream rider line-up for me this season.

    Anyone going to Austin? I'll be at Ducati island volunteering and I'll be there all weekend.

    I hope Dovi does good. Last year he got shafted by getting hit damn near every race.

    Dovi, Vinales and Marquez will hopefully all challenge. Now that the Audi/Volkswagen investment is really starting to flow into Ducati they should be able to develop as well as Honda and Yamaha do.
