If you’re making a new MotoGP Hall of Fame, and your selection criteria excludes the likes of Anton Mang, Angel Nieto, Wayne Gardner and Max Biaggi from being admitted, might I suggest your Hall of Fame is severely flawed.

entire press has gotten bullied into treating charlie kirk as if he was one of the most important americans alive and not a modestly popular podcaster

Kelso rides like he’ll get in trouble from his mum if he tries to make an overtake every time he’s in a pack like that. He’s so incredibly passive. #SanMarinoGP

I wish I could say that one day Valentino Rossi would condemn the sort of behaviour his fans indulge themselves in, but he won’t, he encourages it. The adulation of Rossi continues to baffle me.

I'm absolutely seething with rage at this. This is the stupidest decision in a long line of stupid decisions by Dorna. I have, multiple times, proposed making a film, at our own expense, about the great science & engineering of the Ducati MotoE bikes to be told NO. Dorna literally refusing publicity

Herve should’ve waited till tomorrow to sell the team. Could’ve put the price up a bit after today. πŸ˜†

It was a bit pathetic to be honest. He clearly did it to try and look like a β€˜rebel’ because he knew he wasn’t supposed to, it wasn’t just emotion in conversation.

For now. Unless it becomes more popular and gets sold. They all start out that way…

I feel like there’s more chance he’s held accountable after death because the pissweak Republicans won’t be scared of him and his family anymore.

I admire your optimism that he would’ve be held to account in any meaningful way

Good race that. Alonso’s a bit good I reckon. #HungarianGP

Did you have longer to rediscover the joy because you were perennially lost?

Another action packed sprint that was definitely worth having. #HungarianGP

I greatly enjoy it when I get some sort of hateful abuse from a person I’ve never heard of, then when I try to look them up they’re automatically blocked by the β€˜bigot’ algorithm and are followed by all the regular A List Fuckwits.

This race is a genuine stain on the sport. What a joke.

You could feel that Alex crash coming for a few laps. #DutchGP

Ah good, and we're now replaying the crash before we know how the riders are. Top work πŸ‘

Just said the same thing. The second that crash happened you knew it wasn’t getting cleared in 90 seconds.

There was zero chance there was going to be a green flag finish the second that crash happened so why the fuck did they wait until two corners before the end to throw the red??? Unnecessarily dangerous decision. #DutchGP

That was textbook Dorna TV direction. When a rider is sliding through traffic like that CUT AWAY FOR FUCK’S SAKE.

There is a particular MotoGP β€˜independent’ journalist that is such a Dorna shill it is absolutely laughable. I am honestly surprised how many people put up with it without calling them out.

I'm genuinely SO excited about the new ocean map that will be at the heart of the National Maritime Museum in Greenwich when this hall reopens on June 7th. It's an unusual ocean-focussed map with so much detail, and it's just brilliant. 🌊🌊 Here's a sneak peak.

One of the cruelest denials of victory I’ve ever seen in 40+ years of watching motorcycle racing.
