Well, I'm not a gigantic fan of CrouchLow but I don't dislike him either. Depending on your point of view he's either never quite had the gear, or he's never quite had the X factor.
His Ducati season was abysmal, no doubt. Some of that was mechanicals tho.
And while his first Honda season wasn't great, he was the 3rd placed Honda in the championship standings. Even with 5 crashes... sorry, retirements. The next best Honda rider (Redding) had the benefit of another year's experience on the bucking broncos.
I guess three DNFs thus far this season doesn't do much for his CV.

...meanwhile the crews head off back to Europe where things will settle down a little and all those newcomers will be a little more familiar with their surroundings and the aliens will be more sorted too...maybe...
That's a definite maybe.
There is to be a Yamaha press conference @ Jerez. Lorenzo will be present but will not speak. Shortly thereafter (?) there will be a Ducati press conference.
If Yamaha are consistent this will mean that Lorenzo receives no new parts from now on. As Oxley points out though, the M1 is pretty good as is.
Consistency would also suggest Loenzo will be allowed to ride the Ducati at the Valencia test although his contract does not end until 31/12/16.
All of which should inspire Dovizioso and Iannone to perform?
