Brno 125cc lunacy, BRILLIANT!!
125cc GP from Brno, an absolute belter.
Jorge Lorenzo claimed the win on the Derbi from Dovizioso on the Scot Honda, an heroic Robbie Locatelli grabbed 3rd from 30th on the first lap ! Pablo Nieto also made stunning progress from 26th on the grid up to 3rd at one point, also Hector Barbera was in the mix. What other current form of motorsport can provide that sort of ferocity and excitement? F1 must wonder what the hell is going on. Also, local rider Lukas Pesek was running 4th on a private Honda but unfortunately decked it mid-race when the machine appeared to seize. |

grrr . please . don't mention F1 . just enjoy MotoGP and if you don;t like F1 .. forget about it
it was a super race .. too bad we lost Stoner and a few others . that could have made in to a 10 riders battle for the win |

I raise my hands in loud applause of Pesek's ride. Before his machine seized, he was looking strong for at least a top-5 finish, and with the games the big four eventually started playing, who knows where he could have finished. Well done to the young lad and I hope he keeps it up.
Once again, the 125s just proved to be the best motorcycle racing on earth. Dovizioso threw it away after leading by 3 seconds at one stage while the rides by Nieto and Locatelli were simply sensational. Lorenzo is a complete nutbag, ultra-aggressive and shows no respect to anyone - I love it! IMO he's very tough but fair - he may have banged fairings with Dovizioso, but it wasn't a malicious move, more two riders going for the same bit of tarmac... |

in regards to aggressive racing, i think young hector can mix it with the best of them.... seems a spanish trait - look at elias & nieto in 250cc....
not that there is anything wrong with aggressive racing - let 'em go mad |

Driving aggressively is other thing, and trying to push other riders off the track is other thing.

I didn't see anything wrong with Lorenzo's move on Dovizioso, but ofcourse my opinion would be alot different if he was a German with a big chin!
