First of all, I want to apologize to @Rins42 @suzukimotogp , and @PeccoBagnaia @ducaticorse for the accident at turn 1. I’m really sorry destroyed your race. It was a scary one but fortunately I’m OK, no serious injury. I’ll try to recovery asap. [Takaaki Nakagami]1yr ⋅ TheRaptor103 ⋅ r/motogp

One of the best things about wet sessions in MotoGP is the clear visors. Look at the concentration 👀 [Crash MotoGP]1yr ⋅ TheRaptor103 ⋅ r/motogp
Awwww. How many kids get to go to work with dad? And you never see Max E not wearing his full Aprilia MotoGP jumpsuit 😎 [Mat Oxley]1yr ⋅ TheRaptor103 ⋅ r/motogp
Jack Miller topped FP1 & looks like he's using Ducati's front shapeshifter for the first time since pre-season testing. He has it fitted to both bikes. Johann Zarco is the only other rider using the front device & he was 4th, so Ducati obviously making progress with the tech [Mat Oxley]1yr ⋅ TheRaptor103 ⋅ r/motogp
😔 We won’t race at the #GermanGP. I was feeling more pain during the FP3 and it’s not safe for me and for the other riders. We’ll keep working on our recovery and come back again in Assen! 💪🏻 [Alex Rins]1yr ⋅ TheRaptor103 ⋅ r/motogp

Best thing about having rider media debriefs in the media centre (new for this year) is we now get riders asking questions to each other 😂😂 [Mat Oxley]1yr ⋅ TheRaptor103 ⋅ r/motogp
Aleix confirms efficacy of Aprlia's 'ground-effect' fairing: Especially at high speeds I feel the tyres pushing into the ground more. F1 car genius John Barnard told me this in 2011, after his time at Team Roberts. Imagine where MotoGP aero would be now if he'd had the budget! [Mat Oxley]1yr ⋅ TheRaptor103 ⋅ r/motogp
Razgatlioglu and Crutchlow spent yesterday riding Aragon on M1s. Unless something weird happens I think this may be the Turk’s only spin on a MotoGP bike [Mat Oxley]1yr ⋅ TheRaptor103 ⋅ r/motogp

All but one of KTM's riders (Gardner) have gone back to the old aero, with more downforce, which is a surprise because more downforce means less agility & what you really need to make the lap time at Assen is agility through all the mega-fast changes of direction [Mat Oxley]1yr ⋅ TheRaptor103 ⋅ r/motogp

Mir had his aero upgrade last week in Germany (above), Rins gets his this weekend (below). Mir's upgrade gives more downforce [Mat Oxley]1yr ⋅ TheRaptor103 ⋅ r/motogp
