Maybe Vinales soft compound tires just did not survive the pace he was keeping, to stay ahead of MM. Crutchlow stayed on two wheels, Miller also did well.  Fred H. -------- Original message --------From: Lan Max <nolanmaxxx@gmail.com> Date: 10/28/19 1:58 PM (GMT-06:00) To: Ducati Owners Group <ducati@list.ducati.net> Subject: Re: [Ducati] MotoGP Philip Island Yup!

That’s possible. Definitely looks like his mistake me thinks. early throttle on that corner to catch MM, then boom! Another one bites the dust on the last lap. There goes The podium. Crutchlow has been on LCR for too long. Don’t they want to find someone younger and maybe more talented? Maybe Alex Marquez? He’s crashing more than being on the podium. Perhaps HRC is getting some data from the crashes to help Marc.
