So do you think other riders is nothing for the Championship this year? This competition is not only between Rossi and Lorenzo, dont forget about Marquez, Pedrosa or even Vinales. Although the recent top 3 riders has more chance but anything may happen in the remaining races.

I am very happy to see Jorge lorenzo not to finish because of a fall hahahaha. and most stressful is when the last lap marcarquez and valenti o rossi rossi chasing each other until finally won a game at the circuit cataluna
And I think marc marquez and valentino rossi is not hostile again

Rossi was whining in the last game where his engine got failure that his chance to win the championship is destroyed however right now, we see that he still has good chance to win the championship. If only he could win few more races and expect lorenzo to finish below him then he could win it

to fierce from standings point

1   Marc MARQUEZ   Honda   SPA   125
2   Jorge LORENZO   Yamaha   SPA   115
3   Valentino ROSSI   Yamaha   ITA   103

still small difference and we have seen what just one crash can do this season will be to remember by in all aspects

visible when Lorenzo crashed, he was really annoyed with Andrea Iannone. Rossi, Lorenzo and marquez. all three have experienced a crash and failed to finish, and this makes the competition more fierce.

Great race this year championship will be great after this race 3 aliens are still in race rossi lorenzo and marquez

Im actually happy to see lorenzo didnt finish this race, atleast this will give rossi and marquez chance to be the world champions as well. The gap is just too big between them so it wont be fun if lorenzo is leading all the way with all these points. Besides that, the arrogant lorenzo deserve to lose the champions title

Great race at Catalunya, and congrats to Rossi who win it after a great duel with Marquez. Too bad for Lorenzo with his accident with Ianone.

Formula 1 fan question:  Will we ever see the screaming V8 back in F1?  The engine sound is really a big factor for me.  The V6 turbo just doesn't sound quite 'F1', even after 4(?) years.  I still could not get over it. 

And Mercedes has a big advantage over the rest since they switched to the V6 turbo.  They were ahead in research and might have done a little politics behind the scenes for the FIA to do the switch.

Easy win, thank you Jetwin, you tried to fool people with 1.55 to dani pedrosa against VInales, Vinales is good but the Honda engine is much better, so I again thank you for these easy money. And it was a very beautiful race to watch especially the last laps, unfortunately Marquez made an error in the end otherwise he would have try to win the race, overall a very good race and some nice profit for me too.

Am still thinking for t whom to go for it,   
Lorenzo or Marquez.      Last time was not a clear shot for me due to the sudden acceleration

Hey Jetwin, you are making us a big present, giving 1.55 Daniel Pedrosa against Maverick Vinales, I know Maverick Vinales may be a young talent waiting to explode however Suzuki engine can not be compared with Honda, personally I am taking this easy money and hopefully we will watch a really good race today.

is very hard drive today if think 2 day later a driver dead in Moto2, but this is Motorsport,the show must go on.
Later the chancement of the track, i don't think Valentino can win today, i think win Marquez

I really hope valentino rosi managed to become champions this season, and retired with a very proud achievement

#46 is the best

Nice work from Vinales on Free Practice MotoGP I and II, be the first on FP I and second on FP II.
Too bad for Marquez he did not even on Top 5 on both Free Practices. I think there was something wrong with his motorcycle. Hope he and Honda can do better on Free Practice III and the Qualification.

Well i hope that they fix yamaha engine problem from last race and that it will be great race to watch
