Title: so nearly a brit one two
Post by: coffee on 13 October 2020, 06:29:10 pm

What a cracking Moto GP ! before Jake Dixons fall 4 laps from the end of Moto 2 we were in for the first Brit one two in the intermediate class  since 1975, after a torrid time last season Jake's clicked with the bike now and can run with the best and who knows if Sam Lowes gets a few more breaks we may even have another world champion! and that's since Danny Kents' great Moto3 campaign a few years back.What with the fabulous Johnny Rea almost certain of a SIXTH WSB title things are looking pretty good at the moment. :woot

Poor Jake, was understandably heartbroken, a one two would have been epic. Mind you if Sam hadn’t had more than a bit of luck on his side when the front locked, it would have been a different story for him.
There again, who knows what the race would have been like if Joe Roberts crew hadn’t screwed up. He’s certainly making his mark, coming from behind the pace car to 6th. Fingers crossed for Sam though, he’s so much more mature in his approach now, and has shrugged off his “crasher”tag. It will be great if he can pull off the championship.
