Looking good, Simon. Still training for the Iron Man?

Grew up with the Afrikaans NG Kerk — its equally conservative but slightly more racist South African branch. Did Sunday School for a while, then just waved my mum goodbye and spent the hour hanging out behind the church instead.

There are rumours Brad's in the running for a seat at Trackhouse. I'd love to see him on a different bike before we say goodbye to him.

Thanks, appreciate that. Odd issue to wake up to. I think my Let’s Encrypt renewal request failed silently a few weeks ago, and once expired the http challenge was failing because of the full strict ssl mode on CF. Switched to DNS validation and that’s sorted it.

Don't understand how this squares with forcing teams to have stand-in riders to ensure the grid is full. You'll have riders missing whole sessions because their bikes are being rebuilt.

Qualifying Pace shows how far each rider's best qualifying lap is from pole position, in seconds. Each round shows the gap to pole in that round. "Med" is the median (middle value) across all rounds. Lower = closer to pole Green = close to pole Red = far from pole.

Exactly. Almost everything toxic about the internet is a downstream effect of that one incentive structure. We could solve a lot of problems by figuring out how to stop making sowing division profitable.

MotoTiming (Rob) @mototiming.live · 18/03/2026

They are by no means the only ones. The biggest takeaway from the new Louis Theroux documentary is that the entire toxic Manosphere thing is a grift to monetise attention. They’re all selling something, and the more outrageous you are, the more attention you generate.

High temperatures and thundery showers forecasted for this weekend in Goiania. Hopefully hot enough to dry this out, but that's a lot of dirt that will be left behind on the track.

Very much depends on where you are in the UK. In Edinburgh, it’s rife. Outside of Glasgow, I would imagine the rest of Scotland is completely safe.

We have a big problem here with disaffected youths for whom it’s simply an evening of consequence-free entertainment. Steal a bike, hoon around terrorising pedestrians, then set fire to it.

The astronomical rate of bike theft in Edinburgh puts me off owning a bike again in the foreseeable.

KTM has secured €550m in loans to repay Bajaj's €450m rescue. Bajaj accepted. High-volume production stays in India. Sophisticated assembly, design and R&D remain in Austria. Bold move. 5-9% variable interest, 5-year dividend ban. No margin for error. www.motociclismo.es/industria/kt...

The public reaction to the Phillip Island news has been predictably angry, but the PPP team brings a nuanced view to the discussion. Other podcast hosts will just vent their spleens because they can't (or refuse to) see the very logical reasons that have led to the decision.

Has the author found the most delusional take on AI they could find to try and strengthen their point? Both sides of the argument here are racing to extremes.

I've been creating some new charts looking at race pace and I quite like this one that tracks the rolling 5-race average race pace. Really shows how the top 4 converged late in the season. Go and have a play; you can configure the chart with your own riders: mototiming.live/stats/season...

This crazy photo of Mir on the Honda is giving me F1 2008 vibes, just before F1 banned most aero apart from the front and rear wings. MotoGP's 2027 regs aren't quite so extreme, but it's going to be fascinating to see how the bikes line up next year.
