I actually dont watch F1 frequently, but I have my favorite racer there, Kimi Raikkonen. Beside that, there is one racer from my country, Rio Haryanto. Even though he didn't make good race so far, surely he is my another favorite. About Mercedes, I guess still there is no team can disturb them in top position.

this weekend we will have F1 Monaco race my favorite race of F1
on press conference Ron Dennis announce that McLaren will be the team to break Mercedes' domination of Formula 1, according to him ?!

cant wait to see that

i'm returned today from Mugello, very unlucky for Valentino but the italian audience on track have committed a bad shape. whistles, insults and banner versus Lorenzo and Marquez, but this is normal in soccer, not in motosport

Next race in Formula 1 is Monaco GP one of the most beautiful of all the championship. I would like to point out that Honda will use its upgrade in here, also boss of Mclaren telling we still have one of the best chassis so I think to see a pretty solid result from Mclaren here. Isn't it time they start getting back, its been long time without a solid performance from them.

did watch relive of this race and must say that i tough that he crashed but motor to go down that is something different
he will have hard time till end of this season to come in point, he will have to give 110% of him till end of season and first he will have to improve much on qualifying for upcoming races he will have to be on all races in first row from next race

Yeah, its more regretful since he failed in his nation, it should be his big chance to reduce the gap between him with both Lorenzo and Marquez whom being on above him. Well atleast there are still 12 races, hope Rossi will get best result there.

It's really interesting when Valentino Rossi and Lorenzo fight for the number 1, but it's really unlucky for Rossi, his bike suddenly have a problem and it's not interesting anymore.

i had watching these race but not until the end when Rossi at second place i was thought these race will belong both of Racers but too bad Rossi have failed to finish the race

Too bad that Valentino Rossi was failed to finish because of problem in his motorbike. Anyway the overall race was quite interesting which there were many overtaking, congrats for Lorenzo.

Well done to Maverick Vinales, bringing a Suzuki to the front row, I don't remember when it was last time I have seen something similar in the MOTO GP, should be an interesting race to watch tomorrow. And in this MOTO GP of course a lot of overtakes happen more often than in F1 so is better for the fans this sport I think.

i remember the time from 2002 to 2008 when  only Valentino win to Mugello, i have see more race live.
I think this week can already reopen his story with this circuit and win the race

MotoGP for wekeend in d'Italia TIM, Mugello, 20 May - 22 May
This is home track for Rossi so i expect that he be good also Spain drivers Lorenco and Marques were gonna battle here maybe some ducati driver will try to take win here

this is the second year, it's a bit expensive(travel, tickets, food) but mugello  rocks!! it's a party for 3 days and you can stay in the circuit whit your encampment, a lot of crazy people and incredible motorcycles.

I'll post some pics on monday

Wow you are lucky can be there, hope you could get us some nice pics
Yeah Lorenzo is being on good perform, but I dont want him to be the champion lol

I also hope that Valentino Win the Mugello Gp! But Lorenzo in this circuit he is very fast, last year he won whit distance.
Sautrday Morning i'll be at the circuit whit some friends, i really can't wait

I'm very sure Valentino will get the first on his home ground, since he used to be named as Mr. Mugello, so he will do anything to get this nickname back again. And for the second position will be taken by Marquez. I'm not sure Lorenzo will get the podium on this race, and instead of him, I prefer Pedrosa to get third. I guess he is being happy now after he renewed his contract with Honda.

Yeah Mugello is always a great gp! But I think Valentino is gonna win this year, and 2nd place for Lorenzo. It depends on the performance of the tires too.
