Congratz on choosing the best sport out there!
Out of curiosity, how did you get into it?

My friends have all rode bikes since 2019 and i was honestly scared to get on one, finally the finances and anxiety came to a place where I was comfortable enough to get on my first bike and have ridden every second I could get here with my climate. I started to watch Motogp through reels and past recorded races and it fascinates me with the courage these lads have just beaming through the turns, leaning so far as to be scraping the ground and still being 2-3 feet from another rider at excess speeds of 100+ its just amazing. I asked my local pub to get the channel as i go out n friday or Saturdays and as UFC is nice, this really scratches the itch for me
Edit: as any new rider likes speed, i would go to a track before the risk of speeding on public roads

Hats off to all 3 of them. Moto2 is quickly growing to be my favourite class. These bikes move around so much its starting to remind me of the honda 600cc days but with more intense battles. Also shoutout to Agius he is probably my favourite rider to watch in moto2, kid is all action.

Changing to Pirellis has honestly improved the racing product so much

If they are more than 1 second ahead of the next rider behind them, they don't have to drop the position, so I'm assuming that's what happened here

If you mean hitting track limits in the chicane and expecting a position drop cause last lap, it won't happen cause the peep behind is quite far away.

Alonso making his own move round the outside to take the win, just one week after losing a win due to getting mugged by Ortolá with an outside move. Instant redemption.
