Is this Bautista lark peak boredom or a master at work type enjoyment?
Personally I'm bored.

Yet when Rossi, Doohan, Marquez, Fogarty etc dominated it was rider brilliance and devastatingly jaw dropping.
Clearly the Ducatis need more rev chopping but you’ve got to hand it to the diminutive Spaniard, the cunt can ride and battle.
Toprak gave him a go at the weekend and at Donington it should be a more level playing field with no long straightaways.
Shame it’s gone this way as we used to witness a 3 way proper fight every race.

Been good 3 way racing for last few years and it's maybe just one of those years.
I'm still not for messing with the rules because one rider is better. I bet Toprak to BMW won't make things better next year.

Toprak was on for a win in the SP race if it wasn't for that pesky red flag.
Bautista is the man to beat and nobody complained when Rea was winning all the time.
When there'sa runaway winner we need to rely on the TV crews to focus on the interesting stuff to the right degree. I think they do OK, with showing the battles for 8th and 5th for example. Better than MotoGP in that respect I reckon.

Its got so boring i've stopped watching it, same with Moto GP, its like two wheeled F1 with all the electronics, only rarely watch that nowadays.
Loving Moto 2 & 3 at the moment.
And the TT ?, well that's compulsive viewing, bonkers stuff.

Electronics has bummed motorsport in general. Trouble is no cunt could ride a 300hp bike with no electronics week in week out without running out of luck. I imagine a very select handful could maybe ride them but it would like the 2 stroke days when only the gods could really ride them.

Stupid race direction is ruining it more than electronics or aero for me.
