2020 MotoGP

Tony Arbolino with one of the biggest brain explosions of the year, bailing on a laptime in Q1 despite not already having a strong time in. Bizarre.

His team couldn't believe it!

AA definitely has to win CS from here, unless Ogura gets in his way!

Anyone else?!

Yes it was strange. Coming from well back though.

Yeah I think Ducati rushed the Pecco signing and I think if they waited it could well have been Zarco in that seat.

Team balance and nuance maybe .

Wow Ogura passes AA. Game on!

Utterly insane Moto3 qualifying. Darryn Binder and Kaito Toba didn't even lay down a laptime. Ugh. You could see that who group weren't going to get around in time for a final lap. Incredibly stupid. And so many riders with long lap penalties tomorrow. The lessons just aren't being learned.

Well done to Fernandez - Remy's new teammate next year - on yet another pole position and for Ogura and Arenas having a direct head-to-head tomorrow.

Good to have a decider in the last round with the blanket guys .

Zarco decides to ride across the circuit with a blown engine. Obviously inspired by the intelligence shown in Moto3 qualifying.

Title win last weekend, 20th place start this weekend. Yikes.

 

[Klyntonius]

Love the little hand slap between Miller and Crutchlow leaving the pits.

 

[Klyntonius]

Red blocks everywhere!!

Gonna be a fascinating final gp. I love this sport ...

Great job Miguel, a home pole position. Enormously impressive.

Jack with a really good front row start.

Cal signing off with a 4th place start, Dovi 12th.

 

[hey shorty]

Seems like an utterly frightening track to ride a MotoGP bike. Very compelling viewing.

 

[Team DJ]

Chances that we get a 10th winner tonight?
Miller, Cal, Pol, Taka, Zarco?

I'd say 50/50.

Franco looks the goods.

Remy starting from pole

The most frightening thing I always think about from Portimao is Tom Sykes horror superbike crash there a couple of years ago. That joint can really bite and I expect we'll see it to do so tonight.

Could be the Franky and Miller show again tonight though Miguel has been quick every session too.
Would be great for Pramac to earn their first ever win.

Yeah both Petronas bikes have good race pace, as well as the KTMs although the 2 with the better race pace are Pol and Binder that are a fair way back, the wildcard with really good race pace is Bradl who looked really strong in FP4 and on the 2nd row.

I hope Jack has something up his sleeve because low 1:41s won’t be enough I fear, managed to improve his race pace last week between FP4 and the race I hope he can find something again and secure the win he and the team deserves. Rear tyre will be a concern late if he doesn’t manage it.

another late night/early morning for the stayers.

Bradl deserves major kudos to qualify second row. Would be great if he could fight for that spot in the race.

One thing I've noticed with Miller this year, every session that isn't qualifying is working on tyres and setup and his laptimes almost don't seem to matter. If he says he's happy, he seems to just be able to compete. And he's been happy this weekend.

Another bleary eyed Monday! Sorry boss

Holy smoke . Just saw the Canet crash. Very lucky.
