Catalan Grand Prix - Barcelona

[René]

The bikes are back in Spain!

Looking at the free practice sessions so far it seems almost impossible to predict a winner. Márquez will be strong come sunday but what about Quartararo? He looks very strong and so does Rins. Dovi needs a strong result for the championship and maybe Petrucci can spring another surprise.

awesome qualifying with Yamaha doing superbly and Quat on pole, but for some daft reason I can see the old man beating all the youngsters - looking forward to this

oh I could have cried, the Yams looked so good and I did think they could have taken it to Marquez, but give Lorenzo his due he has since apologised to all and I respect that, even Rossi was saying it was a 'racing accident' but a real shame and it denied us a terrific fight - although I note on crash.net the trolls are baying for blood already- ach, roll on Assen, cathedral of racing,
