Someone was asking about 2012, Glen maybe ?
Here's some reading from David Emmett.

You'd never go hungry with Nigella Gaz.
If it weren't for flashbacks...I'd have no memory at all..

Interesting article — thanks!
Never, never give in.
Yeah, another good read Gaz. Bloody head's spinning tho..............
It's OK to disagree with me. I can't force you to be right.

No the earth is...it's the rule book that's a space oddity.(apologies to David Bowie)Yeah, Bloody head's spinning tho..............
Dorna to MSMA.Check your laptops,put your helmet on.
Msma to Dorna.Here i'm sitting on a 153kg tin can,my circuits are dead and there's nothing I can do.
Can you hear me Dorna i'm fucking with the rules and there's nothing you can do.
Tell the wife to put the kettle on,Moto 2 is looming into view.
Fully qualified Sifter.
Hahaha...nice one! Now having seen Moto 2 first hand at Valencia, whilst it was a good race...to me...it's still got nothing on the 250's! They actually look really quite slow, and I sure do miss the sound as well.
Never, never give in.
Just in case you didn't catch this:
"You've got good riders, let's say, offering to come ride MotoGP basically for free. Which is f*cking retarded, to put it bluntly. It's these dillweeds that are kind of screwing up things for others, because they're ... nobody really has a lot of money, and when they think they can get an equal or a little bit lesser caliber rider."
And More From Colin Edwards:
It's OK to disagree with me. I can't force you to be right.

well that was a little lighter reading from Colin than the David Emmett article!!

Speaking of David Emmett, here's another bit of Ducati goss...
Never, never give in.
I guess it's timely to reflect on who will be handed the plaudits if, yeah, IF Rossi on the Ducati takes it out next year - will be Burgess be recognised as the one who made the difference?

Rossi wasn't that interested in that 1st test as he was not up to it after the last round with his injury.I guess it's timely to reflect on who will be handed the plaudits if, yeah, IF Rossi on the Ducati takes it out next year - will be Burgess be recognised as the one who made the difference?
He didnt enjoy the bike at all an the even went as far as leaving the engine loose in the frame to see if gave any more feel. It will be interesting indeed once they start testing againg in feb they will have a very different motorcycle from what he last rode

Cheers Didjit, seems they're getting into it.
The pair of them make a great team huh Bill ? From what we see of Stoner and his personality maybe he didn't inspire the red team to make the changes (or he couldn't pin down the problems).I guess it's timely to reflect on who will be handed the plaudits if, yeah, IF Rossi on the Ducati takes it out next year - will be Burgess be recognised as the one who made the difference?
I'm amazed anyone doubted what the test at seasons end was about and the point of it.

A little more light reading for Cleve...

Good article and I liked this comment.
2011, I see 1 really clever Italian rider + 1 dead clever Aussie with tools and unlimited Ferrari computer design center, and 100's of engineers, a budget God would smile at and 3 months up their sleeve, and having made the Yamaha M1 what it is today having every single piece of technical data ever produced on disc and more in workbooks and more than that in his head, I really don't think Jeremy Burgess is stressing out bad enough not to really enjoy Christmas in Italy with his wife and child .
See JB's history in his stats here, can you honestly think that Ducati will fail in this attempt ?
> Winning machines prepared by Burgess range from the Suzukis of Randy Mamola to the Hondas of Ron Haslam, Freddie Spencer, Wayne Gardner, Mick Doohan and Valentino Rossi to the Yamaha of Valentino Rossi. Since July 1980, these riders have won 159 GP/MotoGP races (as at 2 November 2010) and a total of fourteen World Championships on motorcycles that "JB" has either prepared himself or whose preparation he has overseen as crew chief. Burgess's machinery have achieved over 290 podium finishes.

Apart from this classic
"Sh*t, I've had so many damn memories in my life. I think once that hard drive gets full, you just start throwing sh*t out to remember new stuff."
