    That's the right side I'm guessing?? The asymmetric rear is harder on the right side but the front isn't asymmetric (the riders don't like the different feel on each side).

    Sharpen up and pay attention we were talking about the lack of good seats for up and coming riders.

    Back in 2011 Dovi was on the 3rd Repsol Honda, in 2012 he wasn't offered a job there again because they went down to the two bike team, that's whether they wanted him or not, the boys they kept were Casey and Pedro.

    So if there were still more Repsol seats there would at least be another good ride for someone.

    Yes, it was the right side, but on a left-hand circuit that is scary considering he picked a Hard for the front. Must say the old codger is acting much more interested this year. Would like to see what happened to the tyre on Iannone's bike, I thought for a while there he was going to be able to keep Bradl at bay.

    Yeah it's a left handed circuit but there's 2 lots of right handers that are extremely punishing on the tyre. There's turn 13-14 (warms the tyre up) and then a very short while later is turns 16-17-18 (tortures the hell out of the tyre which hasn't had time to cool on the right side yet).

    Yeah I think most others went for the xtra hard front mate.

    Redding seemed to blame his crash on this front tyre too

    I wonder what would have happened if he'd have taken a few others with him.
    Amazing prescence of mind from the guys behind and to the side.

    Smith said that he wasn't even in gear otherwise he probably would have.

    Yep, engage gear as the red flag walks with a we let out of the clutch to ensure first is home and dry
