I don't feel the races are becoming boring because Marquez is running away; he's definitely getting shorter and shorter air time, the world feed is usually focused on close battles for positions. I still think it was unbelievable he won Qatar from pole position with a broken leg (albeit on pain-killers).
Marquez is the next doctor, he's easily replacing Rossi. If you watch toward the latter laps of the race, he was taking wider lines and made a lot of mistakes; if he had pressure, there's a very good chance that P1 would've been a good battle.
If the top riders were all comfortable & confident on their bikes, they could push to the limit; it doesn't seem that they're working hard enough on race setup like Marquez.
Even in Quali. Marquez did three runs, whereas the others were conventionally doing two. Yes, he was black-flagged in Philip Island... but you can see the creativity, of doing something different just to eek out that measurable advantage.
I don't see anyone in the Moto3 or Moto2 class who'll rise up and challenge Marquez.
I am going to wildly speculate that Pedrosa's Honda is going to Aleix Spargaro next season and we are going to have a race in our hands.

Poor Aleix...you can clearly see his bike lacks power in the straights.

I see Pedrosa going either to Yamaha or having a nice offer from Suzuki, anything is possible.... Lorenzo is not sure if is going to stay with Yamaha, i'm pretty sure he would love to go to the Repsol honda team.
Who did they say is moving up from Moto2 and might sign with Yamaha??
Seriously. Does all that work to get around Dovi in the corners and that Duc just walks past him once the track straightens out. That must be so frustrating.
I wish I could watch it on my phone. Those links always time out for me
They have an Android app, but you need to have the subscription. And it works only on tablets. I was watching some of the videos on my Nexus 7, but then again I'm almost always on a computer, so not really using it that often.

Keep checking the first post, he updates it a day or two after every race. He also does the Moto2 and Moto3 races.

Yes, indeed. The last 2 Moto3's have both been great! Moto2 has been my favourite class for the last few seasons, but this year it is strangely boring compared to Moto3 I think.
Rossi is definitely happy... I think if we hope for some kind of mishap or a mechanical for Marquez at one of the next few tracks, Rossi can win and we will see him back next year!
Also I hope you are right ZX600, and that EsA is riding a factory Honda next year. It would be a great story for him to get that ride, and then when Rossi (or Jorge) move on that his brother is on the factory Yamaha fighting against his old Rival Marquez, and his brother.
