Round 2 of the MotoGP series was held in Argentina this weekend, with Marc Márquez (Ducati) again dominating. Marc broke the lap record with pole position and then won both of the weekend’s races, including Saturday’s Sprint and Sunday’s full GP.
Perhaps the biggest surprise was the continued presence of Marc’s brother Alex (Ducati) near the front all weekend. Alex finished a close second both days. Pecco Bagnaia (Ducati) finished third in the Sprint, while Franco Morbidelli (Ducati) finished third in Sunday’s full-length race.
Marc Márquez stretches his points lead prior to the third round in Austin, Texas. For full results and points for Saturday’s Sprint race, visit the MotoGP site here. For full results and points for Sunday’s MotoGP race, visit the MotoGP site here.
Even as MM93 has had a dominant first 4 races, its not boring as everyone says. I would think, those are the Marquez haters, who just cant deal with the itchy feeling under their skin that they still dislike him, but cant watch him winning. Zarco and Bezzechi moving up battling with Bagnia, what a Honda thats competitive, and its not MM93? Everyone is waiting for Martin, difficult to not see him in the mix. Its a great season so far, so glad i have MOTOGP subscription, FoxS2 is terrible. and for those that cant stand the aero, moto2,3 has none.

I always thought of this place as a bit of a Marquez fan club actually. Reading the comments, I can’t seem to find anything negative about Marquez at all. What I have been seeing quite a lot of over the last few years are negative comments about Ducati. It was similar but less so back in the day when it was all Honda all the time. Traditionally the GP series was dominated by the makers of everyman bikes, meaning the Japanese. Now you have to watch Moto3 to see a bike with a Japanese engine in it win. The natives are getting restless.

MotoGP has gotten boring since it turned into MotoDucati.
I even forgot to watch the Sunday Grand Prix and watched it Monday after work.
ZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzz…
I am glad to see Marc Marquez healthy for once, though.

Boring… I’m so glad I cancelled my MotoGP subscription. I’ll follow WSBK instead, I think there’s racing over there.

WSBK will also be a Ducati thing. Maybe more competitive between different riders.

Well, at least MM is having fun. Free-to-view TV highlights have disappeared in the UK this year but it seems it’s no great loss.
