Dutch TT was freaking awesome, best race of the year 

 

Rossi vs Petrucci, Marquez vs Crutchlow vs Dovizioso

Nice win for Joan Mir, in Moto2 Morbidelli won after crashes of Marquez and Lüthi, Oliveira got really close

 

Time for MotoGP

Epic first 6 laps for Folger 

 

Sure, he'll probably fall  but it'd be awesome if he wins

I watched a bit. I don't care much about this sport but I get this Marquez isn't a fan favorite? the crowd was insulting him.

It depends on where you are but roughly speaking people are more fan of Valentino Rossi (even though he is not one of the best anymore). Depending on the place, Rossi fans can be quite....unwelcoming to anyone with the balls to wear a Marquez #93 cap or something
