After the race on the ASSEN MotoGP yesterday, further confirmed the MARC MARQUES at the top of the standings. Behind the fall of VALENTINO ROSSI on the fifth lap, Yamaha managed to deliver the other two riders, MAVERICK VINALES and FABIO QUARTARARO to occupy the first and third podiums, as well as ending YAMAHA's fasting victory.

Yesterday race in F1 was different compared to other races,a lot of action yesterday and a really good win from Max Verstapen,well deserved after great overtaking moves.I choose to see both races yesterday and both races were good but the F1 one was the better one to watch.

yes I agree, not usually Formula 1 presents a very interesting race, overtaking usually occurs when other drivers enter PIT, unlike MOTOGP who always presents the race and interesting overtaking action in each series. Like yesterday when MARC MARQUES dueled with MAVERICK VINALES.

Wow, what a race of Verstappen yesterday in the F1! Brilliant but risky move, but it turned out OK.
And he is just 21 years old, the future of F1 is in his hands (together with Leclerc)

Hopefully, he didn't get any penalty for the overcome over Leclerc.
It would be unfair if something like that would happen, but still Ferrari fans write posts about FIA. They were blaming Hamilton and they stated that FIA was supporting Mercedes, but what would they say now? That FIA is supporting Red bull?
They just have to deal with the bad strategy that Ferrari follows in all races.

Like on MotoGP, there is now a young rider who is shining, FABIO QUARTARARO, even though he is 20 years old, he is amazing, his talent can be used as a rider in the future to replace VALENTINO ROSSI at TEAM YAMAHA PABRIKAN.

The FIA should let drivers be drivers and should not excessively interfere in all the incidents in the race and sometimes out of the race. This sport is so boring and has become a playground for politics because of them.

In any case, the FIA made the right decision.

FIA most of the times made wrong decisions but I think this time was only a racing incident.The sport has become boring because of all the limitations the FIA impose to the teams and their cars like max power of the engine, the cubic of the engine like 1600cc and many other limitations.

They do not do wrong decisions.
In the most cases there is a precedent and stewards decides based on previous and similar events. It is just the fans who spread the opinion that FIA is one-sided when deciding on incidents.

FP1 results from the Motogp Sachsenring 2019, Fabio Quartararo returned a good result in the FP1 session, followed by Marc Marques in second place and Valentino Rossi in third place.
Hoping that Yamaha can return to competitive competition this time, especially for Valentino Rossi, who in the previous 3 series failed to finish

[maculeth]

At FP 2 Valentino Rossi dropped to tenth. Rossi said, he said he would bring something new for his YZR M1 after yesterday getting a good setting for the race at Assen, but unfortunately he fell

MARQ MARQUEZ dominated Q2 this Saturday, MARQ MARQUEZ won Pole Position, followed by FABIO QUARTARARO and VINALES, while VR46 was in eleventh position after struggling from Q1. What are your predictions for the race tomorrow at MOTOGP Sachsenring GERMANY

[slocker]

Race will be interesting. First four spots are for me for winner but besides Rossi, factory Ducati drivers are also poor on qualifying yesterday. 70% to win Marquez rest will be for Quartararo and Vinales, Rins can follow pace for whole race.

[Naida_BR]

Why Valentino Rossi is on the 11th position of the starting grid?
Did he have problems in the qualifying laps and got out of track or he just wasn't fast enough to be placed higher?

I guess that's the outcome of his performance that day he wasn't able to make a faster driving speed. Valentino Rossi is one of the best racer of all times, maybe he's not doing well during that race; for sure in the next race I expect more improvements.

yes, because before ROSSI had to enter Q1 first before entering Q2, but unfortunately in Q1 ROSSI fell even though he recorded the fastest time in Q1. And in Q2 ROSSI can't finish in the top ten.

[maculeth]

RESULTS This race, MARQUEZ managed to become the first, and recorded a record of winning ten times in a row, followed by VINALES in second place, and CRUCHLOW in third place. This victory at the same time cemented Marquez as the first class top-ranked MOTOGP 2019.

[maculeth]

after three times Rossi fell since the Mugello series, and in the Sachsenring finished in 8th place, many have doubted his ability, but please note, Rossi is indeed old, but his motivation to always be the foremost never subside, even though sometimes the results of mastermind do not match what which he wanted Rossi

Who would expect that when Marquez came to the MotoGP in the beginning.
He is already a Legend and I feel pretty sad that Valentino Rossi (the driver that I was raised with) is below Marquez. Rossi was legend to me, but new legends should rise after him.

yes I agree, maybe there will be a lot of Rossi's record that will be solved by Marquez, but charismatic a Valentino Rossi I don't think anyone can replace him. Because of the different storyline, Marq Marquez and Valentino Rossi

Valentino Rossi is an icon in MotoGp and everyone loves him but for me Marq Marquez is a better overall pilot and he always fight for the victory many times losing all points because of different crashes through his young career.Rossi time I think is well over and he should retire based on his latest 3-4 year results but if he likes to continue we all love this too.
