Poncheral is a bit pissed because, as he claims, he was unaware that Folger suffered from Eppstein-Barr before he signed with Tech3.
No idea where that would leave Jonas but I`m quite sure the chances to get near a top bike will be rare

The question that should be asked is whether the virus has ever held Folger back throughout his career to date. To dump him on those grounds now would show a total lack of professionalism and compassion by Poncheral.
So Honda and Marc Marquez get the red carpet rolled out once more. Good racing but boring championship. Moto3 and Moto2 are much more interesting than this.
And Ducati, this whole weekend smells dirty to put it nice.

PI is not a Ducati track. The Ducati isn't a mid-corner speed bike, which PI is all about. There's a host of reason for this, namely the chassis and the engine. Redding first Ducati in P12, or if it was 11.
Absolutely brilliant race, though. Shame that the championship is damn near over now, it looked so great with a four-way battle just a few months ago.
Dont know what Miller had for breakfast as he lit it up at the start, kept it upright and only dropped away towrds the end as his tyres went off. Good ride for a man with one leg.
Rossi again best of the rest so presume he is back to full strength after his leg probs.

Similar to the BSB season final one of the top contenders all of a sudden developes brake problems. Brake problems that never appeared until these contenders could mix up a set and cast 'championship'.
The racing is really good in both but the ways both get decided, stinks

Breathe, Andy...
Rossi breaking his leg wasn't scripted. Yamaha have been struggling all year long, to have Vinales fall back isn't that much of a shocker. PI has been good to Marquez over the years, he would have walked it last year if he hadn't binned it. So what are you saying?
