Championship standings after the race (motoGP)

Below are the standings for the top five riders and constructors after round two has concluded.[7]

  • Note: Only the top five positions are included for both sets of standings.
gollark: Raspberry Pis *can* run servers, it would just be bad.
gollark: And that probably gives at most 50% more.
gollark: If you want more single-threaded performance, then you probably need something dedicated, which would rapidly become ultrahyperexpensive.
gollark: If ~~I~~ you want a *better* one, it will probably cost actual money, and Minecraft is unlikely to benefit much from more cores.
gollark: It's free, because of Oracle's oddly generous free plan.
