Kind of hoping for mayhem and Bags knocked to back of pack whilst Martin wins

Kind of expecting a turgid pair of races and possibly a sub decent moto3 from this shit track.

Given the lack of action from Race Direction in Qatar M3, Jorge Martin would be well advised to just dive bomb Pecco at every corner he can until he gets a conduct warning, then let Zarco hava e few pops. What has he got to lose?

Race direction is currently worse than F1's

Shit circuit, can't see PB doing anything stupid. As long as he stays upright he can pretty much cruise around in the SPR and MGP races and still win the title.

First blood to Martin then.
Still not really sure who I'd prefer to win really.
Dixon has his work cut out to keep third in the standings.

I would like Martin to win because you can't beat a good come from behind.
Great first lap of the sprint race, and then a few rare moves afterwards.
Miller got his charge to the back in well early today.

you can't beat a good come from behind. I think we should save that one for posterity...

Yes, great race by Sasaki. Both he and Oncu are moving up to Moto2, wil be interesting how they get on. Think Oncu will ruffle some. M2, just downt get it. A string of motorbikes following each other around a track. Remember they used to complain about the 250's. At least there were good races. MGP, bit a of a do or die for Martin, he had to go for it after dropping back, but went a bit overboard. MM does crash in style, nasty flick. Binder, got told to drop a place, passed one more rider, dropped one and all ok with RD? Strange. That it for 2023, se you next year

Moto2 really is the shit in the sandwich these days. Utter boredom.
Pity Sasaki fell victim to dirty Masia last week as that result today could have been pivotal. I can see Masia getting stuck in M3 and then going all Danny Kent if he gets out.
Martin went full retard with both his moves. I don't think he could have won anyway given Pecco's pace on Sunday. I read that he blames Marquez for the crash. Mental.

Moto 2 has got worse since Pedro clinched the title, no action since then as he was the only real show. If you think it was boring this year, wait till 2024...
Masia is in Moto 2 next year by the way.
I didn't see Martin's moves to be that bad TBH, and I don't know why any journos would say that Martin was blaming Marc, his apology went out on TV. It was clear that he was taking all the blame to me.
Regardless, once again the big fuck up was with race direction, Binder's move on Alex might have been tough, but it didn't really even push him that far off line and no real harm was done (Alex lost more time with his reaction really). A "conduct warning" would have been enough if any action was required. I really hope that next year Race Direction pull their finger out.

This circuit should not be on the calendar, let alone the final potentially title deciding round.
