[Napalm Nick]

Ooochi ouch. Glad he's ok.

luckily for me, i saw Jack talking to marshals after the crash BEFORE i saw the actual crash. it was horrific to watch - Jack is so, so lucky....

[miki]

Jack is a sturdy bloke, he came out for Q2 45 minutes later 

[WALKEN]

Its never good watching someone crash.

How about that Cal Crutchlow, he's amazing!

I use to think his gibberish was cute, now it makes me want to puke!  Crutchlow is a a blow hard.  Can't wait to read why he wasn't on pole today, obviously no fault of his own.     

[miki]

I like Crutchlow, he definitely moans a lot, about everything, and anything. But there is no denying he's an entertaining guy to watch; even if it's just for his crashes 

[matty0l215]

He's British. Of course we complain about the weather, It's one of our few conversation topics

[WALKEN]

Well I certainly will not blame the entire British race just because of one prat, as you say or douche as I say. 

I get humor and all or poking a rib or two but Cal seriously believes his own legendary status. I bet he thinks about Vinales and Zarco a lot.  As far as the British go I think Redding is the best of them.     

[matty0l215]

Come to the UK and you will see how much we talk about the weather 

Cal has always been my favourite British rider. Never was a fan of Smith, he's a bit to quiet. Redding is prabably in 2nd and with a decent amount of time left in his career I hope to see more of him

[miki]

Redding seems like a genuine bloke, his interview with 44teeth was entertaining and he seems like he knows what he's talking about.

[Stout Johnson]

I still can't get over the crash from Miller. He was just very very lucky. If that bike would have hit him when coming down first, he probably would have been dead. It is a good reminder that it indeed it is a dangerous sport, just like Salom reminded us last year.

Every rider should make a mental note to not to be braking too hard during lean in turn 1 in Le Mans. He lost traction on the front for a split second and he could not get the bike to lean to the other side and was bound to hit the outside rail. Next rider might not be so lucky. But maybe the other riders are braking smoother there.

as tough as he is, something tells me Jack is going to feel a little tender today..... 

[Stout Johnson]

Definitely!   but he is a tough mofo.

[BOBR6 84]

not watched it but seen the skittles in moto3  was it oil??

[miki]

Yeah, someone cracked an engine casing on a first lap spill and left a nice long oil streak over the track.

Not much of a spoiler, the race was red flagged, obviously, and restarted.
