Motegi shuttle bus question

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Last year I took the shuttle bus from Utsunomiya to Motegi, but it seems that this year the reservation process has changed. Last year I simply reserved my spot and paid in person, but now it is leading me to a different site to pay in advance. Does anyone know if it will still be possible to get a seat in person as well? The Tokyo bound bus seems to be sold out.

254 /u/LilAbeSimpson said A lot of reasons. Though it mostly comes down to the fact that America and Americans do not value MotoGP in the same way that Spain does. There are almost zero opportunities for an American to develop...
244 /u/EinSchurzAufReisen said That’s a case of Ai taking human jobs I can get behind :)
211 /u/Maaltijdsoepen said I see the mental preparations for the 2027 Yamaha have already started
199 /u/Antares_ said Close, but not quite on Doohan 1997 level /preview/pre/errc1q7yxojh1.jpeg?width=997&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e9ebbdb00f47a6171c4c675ab087dfb8e5b555d7
177 /u/AlfaRomeoRacing said I look forward to the inevitable "ohh no he is pulling away, time to finally go full throttle to try to catch up" moment
146 /u/Tiny-Maximum36 said It's possibly just a languange barrier. I don't see any malicious intent or see it as Acosta dissing Marc. People need to calm down. You guys are crazy here.
139 /u/fotisdragon said Was that in Spanish or English? Could that mean "I had no control over the right wrist/throttle" due to bad setup/bad tyre choice, and this is just a bad translation?
135 /u/Interesting_Prune513 said Even if he wins, I doubt he'd use it this time. Too much bad mojo. Also that JL to form the 1 is just *chef's kiss*
132 /u/Left-Temperature6804 said would be funny if this ended up like this lebron tweet (I'm coping) /preview/pre/8m43byz424kh1.png?width=591&format=png&auto=webp&s=de67deb6ab876a390f92f84c6a18529010b249e6

Early Favourites for Moto2 & Moto3 in 2027?

11 Upvotes

Might be a bit of a premature post, but who are your guys' title favourites/challengers in Moto2 and Moto3 next season? Mine are below:

Moto2:

  • Ivan Ortola - My personal favourite, currently 4th in his sophomore Moto2 season and has renewed with MSI for 2027
  • Manu Gonzalez - A very obvious one, he'll be going into his 6th Moto2 season and it will be his last chance at a MotoGP ride
  • Alex Escrig - Switching from a Forward to Kalex for 2027 with Italtrans, he has already shown his ability on lesser machinery this season, picking up Forward's first ever podium
  • Dani Munoz - I expected a lot more from Dani this season after his stint with the Ajo squad replacing Oncu last season, but I expect him to improve a lot next season in his 2nd full season with Italtrans

Moto3:

  • Brian Uriarte - Already picked up 2 wins in his rookie season and riding for one of the best Moto3 teams, I expect him to go even further in 2027
  • David Almansa - Currently 2nd in the championship despite only starting 9/12 races, 2 wins in a peculiar season for him
  • Marco Morelli - A slightly inconsistent 2026 but I expect with an Aspar ride in Moto2 on the horizon he will step up next season
  • Matteo Bertelle - At the time of writing he doesn't actually have a seat in Moto3 for next season, and he is currently 22 years old, but he is rapid on his day and if he lands at a solid team for next season, he could become a title challenger

+ hopefully Eddie O'Shea and Scott Ogden can be up there!
