They were testing the new bike and the new tyres individually to not mix up the results

Last time there was a wall in the garage was because one rider was using Bridgestone and one Michelin. Nobody will be using Bridgestones next year.

Yeah I've not seen any clips mate. But I've seen a fair few bikes in gravel traps! Bring on 2016 I say!

6 years ago they had a wall in the sheds between Rossi's and Lorenzo's garages and it had nothing to do with the tyres. That was all about the riders.

That's your story, but that is at variance from the official version which was that it was the different tyres.

Convenient that they were on different tyres then the team didn't have to say it's cos their riders don't like each other. They really didn't like each other at that time but they sorted it out the next year and they'd been improving as time went on. Until the last few weeks.

I hope so.

I do not reckon there will be a wall down the middle of the Yamaha pit, will not a visable one

Lorenzo will have to get used to the booing at future podium events though, and from the way he did a fast stage exit left from both the last two he is not fond of being booed.

He and MM will need extra security in Italy I'd say!

Despite being a Rossi fan, I think that's fucken rough. Booing is just shithouse.

Yup none of those cunts could ride like that. Give applause.

He should take a page out of Jim Richards book next time.
