Title: bye,bye,Yorge or not?

Little bit disappointed that the riders didn't get around Lorenzo on the slowing down lap,he's never been the most popular rider but still a great racer I think it would have been nice to see him get a better send off by his fellow competitors. :\

Yep, especially noticeable was the lack of acknowledgement by Marquez.

News report this morning said that Lorenzo has bought a one way ticket to Bali. Watch this space. One stranger you will see in the paddock next year is James Toseland, who'll be managing Danny Webb in WSS.

Still feel a bit for Danny Kent,but after last seasons' fiasco with the law I doubt if any decent teams will touch him.How hard must it have been when in his last season in moto2 he gets Fabio Quatararo for a team mate? :\

Update on Danny Kent. What a lucky boy, he's just signed for Morelli Racing in National 1000 Superstock for next season on a ZX10RR.

That’s good news. He’s a talented lad and deserves another chance as long as he’s sorted himself out.
Good to see someone’s got some faith in him. Good luck Danny.  :thumbup

Heard that Lorenzo is going to Yamaha as a test rider for 2020,  and Quartararo to get Rossi's seat in 2021.

Nice job for Jorge, no pressure or expectations whilst helping to develop a bike he knows he'll enjoy and be happy with. May even get the odd wildcard, who knows.
Yamaha are obviously looking to the future, and that is France's young gun. Maybe this year Vale makes the "big" decision.
