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.

can't wait for the italian MotoGp. For me the podium will be: 1 LORENZO  2. VALENTINO 3. MARQUEZ

Andrea Iannone will be confirmed as a Suzuki MotoGP rider for 2017 ahead of the Italian MotoGP, replacing Yamaha-bound Maverick Vinales.

In Ducati they confirmed that Dovi stay for another two season and that Iannone is leaving the team
Lorenzo is signed for them and that means that next season will be epic

I watches more 100 times crash from mercedes drivers and i my opinion is that hamilton could avoid crash if he didnt come to grass he could done it if he come to other side

But this is my option he could avoid crash

Thats true, considering the fact that he has a slower car compared to top rated teams, the fact that he is much faster than his teammate doesn't mean that the Toro Rosso is a very good car compared to the others. Still with this obstacle and thanks to a in race incident he managed to made his first win of his career being the youngest formula 1 driver ever to win a GP. This surely would caught the attention of big F1 car companies like Ferrari,Mercedes etc. I hope he gets a really good car soon and maybe he will start winning championships in a row. Not good for F1 if this happen but good for him.

Verstappen has made some noise within the formula one community. He already was special when he first came in but know he also shows improvement.
This shows that in the future he can become a top contender.

sure red bull have the best performance in aerodynamic in F1
no other team is near good as they are
that is main reason why Mercedes and Ferrari dont want to give they engines

true, red bull have the better car, but really bad engine, is like see the result of Renaul with the same engine, is every time in the last position of grid. Id redbull have the mercedes engine, i think win all race

Well its on mercedes to tell both were defending position but rosberg pass him in first turn but on other hamilton tried but ended with crash i just hope that from next race wontbe one is first driver other is second

So after reading a lot of news stories regarding the crash of the Mercedeses I think it was Rosberg fault, he was clearly slower and started with the wrong engine configuration. Anyway this crash was good for the coming of the F1 championship as it made it a bit more open, although we all know Mercedes is the fastest car there clearly.
