In addition to what was previously states, Schwantz will ride Marko's bike around on a lap with all three classes riding behind him. Then when all bikes come to a rest the hammer will be dropped, along with a barrage of fireworks.

Riders around the world are asked to be included in a wave of noise that will travel around the world. Unfortunately that will be 4am here on the east coast. Cant see that going so well with the neighbors...

I thought it odd they didn't honor his father's wishes... with the throttle revs after the fireworks...

thought the sign off by Marco was a nice touch though...

No, watch again. Dovi held his line while Bautista puckered up and dove toward the inside too early, clipping Dovi's rear tire.

What? Absolutely not. If you look at the pavement lines, it's obvious the Bautista was going straight, while Dovi moved to the left (our perspective)... Seriously, I'm not sure there is any "blame" to be meted out but Dovi was way on the inside and needed to drift wide to be able to make the corner. Bau, Rossi, and the rest were already on the outside....
