Episode 828: MotoGp is BACK!

from MotoPod · host Team MotoPod

Jim and Rich are back talking about MotoGP!  The heat in Thailand equaled the heat on the race track this weekend.  The guys start off talking through the news.  First up Dorna is no more and is replaced by MotoGP Sport and Entertainment.  Then they talk about the proposed street race replacing Philip Island. Moving on to the racing, the guys chat about a relatively calm Moto3 race and the great last lap that Quiles did to almost win the race. Moto2 saw a couple of red flags as a major crash involving David Alonso brought the racing to a halt.  At the second restart another crash caused the second red flag.  Racing resumed with only a seven lap dash won by Gonzalez. MotoGP saw a great sprint race between Marc and Pedro only after Bezz crashed out.  The Sprint ended in controversy as Marc was told to drop one place because of an aggressive move on Pedro at the last corner. Bezz bounced back on Sunday easily winning the race by a country mile.  Pedro fought his way to a second place podium with Fernandez third again!
