French MotoGP

[Galactica]

Once again Marc Márquez shows what an amazing rider he is.  I just watched yesterday’s French MotoGP.  Starting 13th, Marc finished 2nd.  A brilliant ride on a year old bike.  He has signed a one year contract with the team he’s on.  Rumour has it, for next year he may move to the factory Ducati team, or he may ride a factory sponsored Ducati on his current team.

For 2026, apparently there will be some MotoGP rule changes.  The bikes are getting too fast for the tracks.  And because of geography and other factors it isn’t feasible to change the tracks to support the speeds.  So rumour has it that displacement will drop to 850 cc’s.  Also they’ll likely eliminate the ride height variability and launch control.
