Sit down junior, Tony Cairoli will finally have his 9th after these two disappointing years. 

 

If Herling's breaks all of his bones as per usual, he might have a shot at it

2nd place for the Netherlands in the Motocross of Nations, our best result ever   (France won, USA 3rd)

 

Herlings beat Antonio Cairoli in a straight-up fight, Cairoli is gonna have a hell of a time next year in MXGP

Valentino Rossi 

 

Marquez can win the world title already today if Lorenzo loses 2 more places..

Lorenzo 

 

Marquez world champion, deserved, but still. Anticlimatic.

By the way, in MotoGP we will also see the return of Karel Abraham, as announced today. He will ride on a 2 year old Ducati with the Aspar team. 

 

It should be a very interesting MotoGP season with some very talented riders moving into the class and on a decent machine: Jonas Folger and Johann Zarco on the not-so-bad Tech 3 Yamaha and most promising, Alex Rins on the very decent Suzuki alongside Iannone.

Chaz Davis, what an idiot Led the whole race and fell in the last lap... Again the risks he takes, cost him. Rea with 5 out of 5 and builds a huge lead for the title already in the beginning of the season.

Such a big shame indeed...Davies vs Rea was really cool for almost 20 laps (a lot of lead changes actually, which is rare nowadays) and then it ended like that..
