Great ride by Jack for 3rd behind Dovi and what's his name out front.
I watched the movie "Wayne" the other night, thought it was well done. Great footage of the first Phillip Island Moto GP.
Tax avoidance case[edit] In 2007, the Italian tax authorities declared Rossi was being investigated for suspected tax evasion. Having previously unsuccessfully investigated Rossi for tax evasion in 2002, the authorities announced they were investigating Rossi for undeclared revenues of 112 million euros ($160 million) between 2000 and 2004. The officials said, against the European Taxes Agreements among European countries, Rossi's London residency has enabled him to take advantage of favourable tax conditions, such as only declaring earnings made in Britain and avoiding taxes on his lucrative merchandising and sponsorship contracts, commenting that Rossi had residency in London but his "centre of interests" wasn't there, as shown by a thorough investigation.[432] It noted that in 2002, Rossi's Italian tax form declared earnings of 500 euros, while sponsorship contracts were all reported to be made out to foreign companies, but with his affairs controlled mainly from Italy.[433] In February 2008, Rossi announced that he had reached a settlement with the Italian tax authorities: he paid 35 million euros to close the tax case. He also plea-bargained a suspended sentence of six months' imprisonment for non-declaration of income.[434]
What about Alex Marquez's save in Moto 3 at Motegi. 'ken hell, awesome skill,luck,Gods who knows, but scary,waiting for him to go tits up.
Wayne's lad has a whoopsie as does Quartararo https://wwos.nine.com.au/motorsport/australian-moto-gp-remy-gardner-fabio-quartararo-crash/46a135b3-cf72-4112-829f-318febdb4932#close
And the Marquez brothers take over the Repsol team. I was really hoping they'd give Zarco a year as Alex still had a year left in Moto2 with Marc VDS, but I realise it was a big stretch and Honda have the cash to break any contract in Moto2.
I feel sorry for Alex already https://coupler.foxsports.com.au/api/v1/article/amp/motorsport/moto-gp/repsol-honda-2020-riders-motogp-news-marc-marquez-alex-marquez-honda/news-story/c8290b20249a15901c53dffd44d85130 https://www.crash.net/motogp/news/934354/1/repsol-honda-explains-alex-marquez-signing
