How about a little competition? Predict the 1,2,3 Moto GP finishing positions for 2017?
There may be a small prize for the winner. In the event of a tie, the earlier post wins.

On the basis of absolutely no knowledge or skill on my part:

1. Marquez
2. Vinales
3. Lorenzo
 
I would like to follow it but I am buggered if I am paying anymore out for watching TV :(
 
Gonna stick my neck out...and go for the long shot.
It's now or never for Rossi 10th world title... and Jorge on a Duke has to be feisty...
So..
1: Rossi
2: Lorenzo
3: Marquez

Highlights are on ITV4 the following Monday evening. The commentators are a pair of tosspots but at least you get to see most of the race.
 
1 Vinales
2 Marquez
3 Rossi

Not my opinion, just going for a random entry :)
 
I guess, but nothing like watching it live, I am a saddo and watch the F1 live too, maybe next year I will go to as many BSB races as I can.
 
Interesting. I'm a much bigger F1 fan than MGP but I refuse to give any money to Murdoch so stay with the BBC. I also prefer their coverage, mate gave me free Sky password but I never use it.
 
1- Anybody but Tossi
2- Anybody but Tossi
3- Anybody but Tossi

A better prediction might be how long before the wall goes up and the dummy is spat because Maverick is the better Yamaha rider, 3 day test starts on monday 30th so i guess we'll get an idea by the end of wed's

A tall order Jerry when you consider the make up of the series is

Spain = 10 riders
Italy = 4
Brit = 4
Fra = 2
Cze = 1
Aus = 1
Ger = 1
 
Not a great gambler but here goes,
1. Rossi
2. Lorenzo
3. Marquez

Would love to see Lorenzo do it but first season is a big ask.....

Championship prediction

1. Vinhales
2. Marquez
3. Lorenzo

Although I would love to see Iannone in the top three I dont think he has the consistency,

Prediction 2 - Rossi to announce retirement at end of season

Russell
 
1 - Marquez
2 - Rossi
3 - Vinales

The heart wants Rossi to take it, but I think it's going to be very tough this year.
