It’s the second race of the season, and MotoGP is back in Brazil. It’s been absolute ages since we’ve last been to the Autodromo Internacional de Goiania, so how has it faired? Well, they say love starts with first impressions – and Goiana definitely delivered. She’s short, she’s wet (especially after the rain), she’s wild…and she’s got a sinkhole that’s ready to mingle! To quote Mat: “At least it gives you an interesting memory.”
(Cue the Liberty Media exec’s kicking their TVs: “Four billion pounds…for this?!”)
In other news: Aprilia continues to impress, while KTM and Honda are scrambling to not start the season with too much of a stumble. And then there’s Marc Marquez, whose fight with Fabio Di Giannantonio ended with both riders overtaken by Jorge Martin. Was this a normal error on Marquez’ part? A nasty consequence of that infamous injury? Or is everybody’s favourite alien…becoming suddenly human?
Marc, for his part, blames the asphalt.
And then we’ve got to talk about Bezzecchi, taking home the second win in a row, and so much more. Cheers!
