Lorenzo gave Marquez a good fight. What a race. I would like to have seen the rest of the front runners in the mix for victory.

Anybody know why Lorenzo's helmet had a shamrock on it?
Isn't it kind of obvious that he is Irish???
Lucky Charms sponsorship maybe???

Or maybe he is about the same size as a leprechaun??

Actually no idea.

They are spectacular in everyway on the track.

Marquez is about the size of a leprechaun! I looked on the HJC site and Lorenzo's and saw nothing about the helmet design. I'm one of those crazy Irish-Catholic guys so I might want to buy a replica helmet.

 
Ya these MotoGP riders are small, but Dani Pedrosa is the smallest of them all. They are spectacular to watch. Masters on 2 wheels.

 
Do the rider/bike weight have to be the same in moto gp?
The following are the minimum weights permitted:

MotoGP™Up to 800cc – 150 kg

801 - 1000cc - 160 kg

Moto2™ motorcycle + rider 215 kg

Moto3™ motorcycle + rider 148 kg

The teams may add ballast to their bikes to achieve the minimum weights
