I know those of us who run the FIA GTC events know his feelings all too well, but like in game, what can you really do about stuff like this?

What a rotten time for Franco to not be on the bike...

It would have to hurt his chances of getting the factory Yamaha ride for next year.

Really strange situation. I seen reports that he was purposely hitting the rev limiter in the pit lane and on track to try and blow it up.

He was also trying to de-activate the rev limiter as well to totally grenade the engine.

Said he was leaving a few months back, and Yamaha found a way to dump him early.

Shame he found himself in a funk for the last few years. Obviously a top talent, just couldn’t figure the race starts out. And Yamaha knew a title wasn’t possible finishing lap 1 of every race in a hole.

sigh... I only get to watch half the race this weekend 'cause NASCAR Cup tried to race on a road course.

edit: Oh, nevermind, the rest of the recording switched over to golf right before the staging lap. Went to the channel live just to see and found the race with 4 laps left. At least it was an exciting finish. I'm tired of being a racing fan in the US.

Might have to suck it up and pay the subscription fee on MotoGP.com like I did. Equals to nearly $10 a weekend, but you at least don’t have to fight NBC over bad time slots.

As for the race:

Thomas Luthi announced he will retire after this season. He'll be the sports director of the moto3 team Prustl (not sure how you call that in english) and he'll manage the german junior team in moto 3 jr with a swiss driver.

Maybe replacing Savadori early? I’m not a lawyer, but I feel this could become messy.

 

[Rossell2]

I read a tweet that from Yamahas perspective he's a free agent. So it would have to come from who he's replacing.

Went out to COTA for MotoGP (still on road back from TX). Too hot to honestly have a lot of fun. Plus, the track was just not in a good place for bikes to be competitive. But enjoyed it.

Gresini revealed their 2022 livery yesterday (Saturday).
Most people I've seen on forums seem to dislike it, but I think it looks pretty good.
