Moto 3 is my fave, I’m not so sure about Marquez yes it would have been different would he have won not convinced, watching brad come through the ranks he isn’t a great respecter of anyone, I do think there have been some mistakes made for signings/contracts next year. Several of the top teams I reckon have missed the mark (no pun intended).

Brad is a top guy and nice bloke, I met him and Hiroki Ono the day after he won the 2016 Mugello Moto3 GP in the bar of cheap hotel by the Airport, He crashed in Saturday Qualifying totaling the bike! mechanics built another bike overnight as it was *******! "you had a big off in practice" "Yeh, the bike was f**ked man, the frame, swingarm, wheels, forks, it was totally f**ked, they only saved the engine!, but I repaid all the hard work of the mechnics. Saw him in the Airport next morning getting a Ryanair flight to Spain obviously saving money (other operators are available) . His results in Moto2 didnt show his full potenial. Neither did the first two Motogp results but his race lap times showed hes on it. KTM gave him a test on a Motogp bike at Bruno in August last year as a reward for his efforts in Moto2. As They knew hes the real deal. this is well worth a read 14th January 2020 www.motorsportmagazine.com/articles/motorcycles/motogp/brad-binder-ktms-next-big-thingbest regards

Not so long ago it was the "aliens" who did all the winning.. seems not so anymore.. and all the better for it. Some just need that chance..

There’s a change a coming the establishment are in for a shock. Binder, Quartararo, Morbidelli and others Rins etc are changing the face of racing VR had his day exceeded everything, MV just doesn’t have that killer instinct, Dovizioso has his chance and the kids don’t play by the same rules same as it ever was.

It was absolutely awesome to watch, his 3rd race on a MotoGP bike that has been nowhere for the last 3-4 years, mirrored Marquez in Austin in 2013
He’s a really humble guy, it’s not about him, it’s his team and family first then him, a bit of Jonny Rae in him
He deserves every plaudits he gets
Got to feel for Pol though, I don’t think Zarco was at fault in the crash, he went for a gap which was there on the racing line, Pol had run wide and Zarco went for the gap and Zarco was actually in front of Pol at the corner entry and Pol I think turned into him, Zarco was on the other side of the bike and wouldn’t have known he was there, a racing incident, his long lap penalty was brilliantly ridden but so undeserved
Take nothing away from Brad, it was brilliant for him and KTM, I love the fact that these new aliens are coming to the fore, Frankie, Quat and Binder are the new breed, and yes I do like Marquez for what he has done, I’ve had the pleasure of meeting him and he’s got a wicked sense of humour, can’t wait to meet Brad and Quat
we need more manufacturers in the field too, BMW, Kawasaki and the like, wouldn’t that be like
I just love the racing, I’ve no favourites I follow them all
