      @@chadwells7562 He's been given way too many good chances, and thrown them away. I like Jack, he's cool and I'm not saying he's talentless, but truth be told, four wins don't make a consistent rider. When they decided to skip Moto2 (and losing the Moto3 championship) we were told he was the new Rossi/Márquez/whatever and that he should not be wasted; four wins with two bikes isn't much of a prodigy for me. And regarding the 'most champions' thing; say whatever you want about Mir, but he won the championship fair and square: no, he's not on Marquez/Fabio/Pecco level even with a good bike (or at least that's my opinion), but the dude was smarter than 19 other dudes and got himself a title, and he's a champion, no way around it.
      It is what it is, sometimes you're given a few more chances because you're a bit more profitable marketing-wise, like Jack. But a few days ago I kinda lost a bit of respect when he claimed he was finishing above Fabio (a 18M rider), when Pedro has been almost consistently finishing ahead of him despite being a Rookie and having the GasGas (say whatever you want, but a non-official bike will never achieve as good as the factory team, call it a hunch but that's been the truth for at least 25 years). Jack should either move to Yamaha, Honda to help re-develop them, or go to SBK. He has a potential championship-winning bike and he's been consistently getting mediocre results.

      @@elcobra98 You’re quoting things I didn’t say my friend. I said he has more wins than 95% (this is a heuristic I didn’t look at the big ol book of GP stats) of riders who have made it to the premier class. I definitely didn’t say most champions or denigrate Mir’s win. Mir is a great rider (and probably better than Jack) and anyone who wins the ‘ship deserves plaudits regardless of how ‘dominant’ they were.
      Has Jack thrown away his chances? Yes. He’s an excellent rider but just not good enough in this current crop. I think it’s time he was deported to WSBK. He’s had an excellent MotoGP career though. 4 wins, 10 podiums, 2 factory rides, 10 seasons, and enough money made to never work again before he hits 30. All that’s really left is winning a championship, but only 26 (27?) people in history have ever done that.
      As for the media claiming he was the next coming of Rossi etc… they’re the media take anything you hear with many large grains of salt.

      @@chadwells7562 My bad for misquoting, apologies. Frankly I've gotta agree almost completely; he's done some stuff in his time, I just think (since 2015) that he's gotten way too much praise for stuff even Aleix Espargaro could do with shitboxes like a CRT (back when Jack wasn't winning races ofc) and his 'punishment' was often to be promoted to a better/competitive bike only to underperform and complain over the media like he did last week (with the Quartararo thing). I feel the same thing happened with Ianonne; he's a great rider, but he's being overrated by both teams and the media as if he's riding a Honda rather than a Ducati; in 2013 he finished behind Aleix, riding a prototyped superbike lol (he got injured iirc but still). And they're saying that he's "the only rider Márquez feared in Moto2" like Marc hasn't already kicked his ass for at least five seasons (counting since he was riding an official bike).

    You got the tyre measures all wrong. 125 for front tyre is not a diameter, it's nominal width of the tyre. This is basic knowledge about tyres. 70 is the profile of the tyre, it doesn't mean it tells you the height of the side wall. It tells you the height from the rim to the highest point of the tyre in comparison to tyre width. Rest of it you got right.

    Moto need to start advertising like f1 to get more recognition. I’ve also realised that there is also a language barrier that sets a lot of viewers off and that is a hand full of them don’t know enough English which as a international fan is a bit off putting. Although the main concept is the race itself, these days a lot of fans and viewers are more interested in the riders themselves.

    important to note that not only does the power change going from a 400 to a 1k, but the entire bike changes. Riding an entry level bike is not at all comparable with riding a "big" bike. Same goes for everything else.

Biaggi basically spent his career there and was happy to stay. Doohan had to convince him to go to 500 as 500s were lacking rider talent.

      I see it with my own eyes, both on TV and in person, I watch all three. Yes Moto3 has even more exciting action than Moto2 but that doesn't take away from the fact that Moto2 still has more action than MotoGP (Which should just be called Ducati cup). LoL
