    Well well Jack rode very well to a 5th place finish in the sprint race. He was first KTM home as well. Hes been linked with Pramac Yamaha next season but no official announcement as yet. The best placed Yamaha was 12th some 18sec back from the winner.

    First time I saw that rumour was when I posted it here a month ago, seems longer for some reason!

    What am I missing here?   I caught the last 5 laps of the race last night but didn't see Miller getting a mention.
    Did he start or did he do his usual and fall off ?
    I think I remember the commentator saying there was no Jap bikes in the top 6 or 7  ?

    Well he did the right thing and bailed before he was over taken too many times.  I want his job!  I can ride as slow as that as well!

    You've got the gig if you explain what each sensor does...and we know that one records that the disc exceeds 1000c during those 300kph to 60kph stops.

    Well not a good start to practice with a crash for Jack. Going to have to get on the grid the hard way after finishing the day in 16th. KTM fastest down the shoot at 346kph.

    Well Jack ended the sprint race 13th out of 19 finishers. He was the last KTM beaten even by both rookies. Even though he is linked to the new Yamaha team its hard to understand what he brings to that team other than experience with the other brands. I wont be disappointed to not see him signed to Moto Gp and go elsewhere, perhaps WSBK, rather than stay and just ride a bike near the back of the field.

    Action packed race this one...Jack 10th with a tire penalty still to be applied so guessing that puts him around 15th/16th out of 18 finishers.

    Bloody odd to see him actually finish though!  Between him and Pissintheashtray in F1 its a bloody sad affair.

    Guess the old saying "To finish first, you must first finish "is a positive for him. Like several other people i watched Rossi stay on way too long in Moto Gp and i think every sport has some slipping star. 
    Again the whisper is hes staying on with Pramac Yamaha, nothing publicly announced...question is why?

    Think the Harley has decent brakes....
      
    The toughest corner at the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli for the braking system is turn 8, known as Quercia: MotoGP bikes go from 288 km/h to 73 km/h in 4.6 seconds, covering 213 meters thanks to a load of 6.3 kg on the brake lever.

    Well were down to the very last seat on a Yamaha at Pramac next season...Miguel Oliveira confirmed the other seat rumoured for Jack. This is the last ride available for 2025 season.
