    An insight into the mind of a crew chief (in this case, Marcel Duinker, Tom Syke’s man).

    Absolutely. A fascinating read. Maybe Ducati should try and get him for their MotoGP effort.

    and I loved this bit

    Crash.net:
    You know that when Marco Melandri does well, the TV cameras show Manuela [his girlfriend] - and when Tom Sykes does well we see you!

    Marcel Duinker:
    (Laughs) That's why I like to see Marco doing well actually!

    And I see that he is another crew chief who thinks the rider is more important than the bike.
    "If the bike is 95% and the rider is 100% confident then they can win, but if the bike is 100% but rider is 95% confident then they can't."

    I've only seen 4 races so far but it's the usual high standard of racing and dicing. Copied 4.5 hours of it this morning.

    I may have already asked this somewhere but can you copy that stuff onto HDD or USB stick to watch through tele or ps3?

    I don't think so. You would need to record from the output as it played.

    I dunno how flash a video card you would need in a computer, for it to have an AV/HDMI input, but that's all you should need....From my limited computing knowledge.

    I wonder, does SKY have a website in which to watch things later, like TVNZ 'on demand'? That and a flashplayer downloader program thingie, (I don't fucken know what it is, I just know I can save vids from streeming media sites as they play), would be the easiest way. Just borrow your mates login and password.
