ICYMI:

Why did so many riders crash in Austin? And most especially, why did reigning champion Pecco Bagnaia crash?

How did Alex Rins manage to be so fast, where other Honda riders struggle?

And why Yamaha's problem is not the engine configuration, but the fundamental approach to motorcycle design.

Also, a minor rant about podium statistics

La crònica de la gran victòria de @Rins42 a Austin #AmericasGP @MotoGP https://www.lesportiudecatalunya.cat/motor/article/2278741-alex-rins-doma-l-honda-a-austin.html?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=xarxes&utm_campaign=xarxes

Just watched #JM89's half-assed public apology to #AM73. No "I took him out" but "I crashed and he was there". No, you were being entirely too aggressive on cold tires on the first fucking lap of a race. The very same shit you crucified #MM93 for, that he got penalized for.

The #MM93 haters will be all "intent, intent!" ... any way you sake it, either was too aggressive for that point in the race, and it ended races early. Same punishment for all, or none at all.

L'amarezza è tanta ma sono sinceramente contento per Rins, questa vittoria se la merita tutta. 👏🏻
Il terzo posto di Quartararo grida più culo che animo. 😁

Para compensar el cagadón de Pecco, que o gana o se cae, no tiene punto medio este niño 🤦‍♀️ #AmericasGP

Victoria de señor para Álex Rins en su año de estreno con la Honda 👏🏻 #AmericasGP

Grazie alla nuova scivolata di Bagnaia sono indeciso se tra tirare giù San Benedetto Giuseppe Labre oppure Santa Bernadette Soubirous; nel dubbio me la prendo con tutti e due che male non fa. 😑

That was absolutely class. Two riders going no-holds barred for the win.

Shout out to the man in third. Excellent ride.

Well. That explains why Alex Marquez crashed. 🤮

I don't think that helmet will be getting reused anytime soon.

Having 12 litres of fuel for 10 laps means you have to cut power a lot less than when you have 22 litres of fuel for 20 laps.

Domini de @PeccoBagnaia en la cursa a l'esprint amb @Rins42 en el segon lloc #AmericasGP @MotoGP https://www.lesportiudecatalunya.cat/motor/article/2278428-alex-rins-tambe-brilla-en-la-cursa-a-l-esprint-i-fa-un-gran-segon-lloc.html?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=xarxes&utm_campaign=xarxes

Questa sera, come si suol dire, Rins era leggermente avvelenato. 😆
Bravo anche alla lepre Bagnaia ♥️ e ad un Martin che spezza i sogni di podio dell'Aprilia con una bella difesa all'ultima curva. 👏🏻
