“Anyway, thank you to my team because we are really working hard to be in the top group, for example in Buriram race we are fighting really well in front of Franco,” explained the Yamaha rider, who admitted that he thought his Honda counterpart was further behind him: “But this time I thought Franco was 14 or something like this and I was 10, maybe we can gain something like this, gain some points, but we gain just one point in front of him but its ok. At least we were in front of him, we keep pushing and taking the challenge to him.” Source link

Red Sox Notes: Friday’s Win Among ‘Most Enjoyable’ Of 2018 For Alex Cora
It’s safe to say the Red Sox had an absolute blast Thursday night. Boston claimed the American League East with a win in the series finale over the New York Yankees and got to pop champagne bottles on their fiercest rival’s turf. To date, it would be tough to top the division-clinching win for the Red Sox this season. But given how things played out Friday night at Progressive Field, manager Alex Cora was of the belief that the 7-5 victory in the series opener against the Cleveland Indians was among the most entertaining of the season for his team. Boston received an encouraging start from Chris Sale, who continues to gain strength
Alex Cora, Red Sox Have Followed Consistent Plan In Dominant 2018 Season

Will we see some additional fireworks this weekend? The Red Sox host the Yankees for four games beginning Thursday night, and it’s another important head-to-head series for both teams, as Boston holds a 5 1/2-game lead over New York atop the American League East standings. This hardly guarantees another fight is in the cards, especially since the Yankees traded Tyler Austin — the guy who charged the mound against Joe Kelly back on April

Half-term report: Aki Ajo on the first half of 2018
"It has been very positive. We are second in the World Championship, only 7 points off the top, and leading the team standings, so things have gone pretty well so far. But you always have to try to improve, and as is normal in motorcycle racing there are still things that we can perfect. For example, I think that right now we should improve our results in qualifying, as that would make things much easier for our riders in the race. This year Moto2 is very evenly matched: Last year if you were half a second off pole, you could start from the second row -now you are ten positions further back. In short, everything is very tight and that
