MotoGP 2017

[Cosmik de Bris]

Well there ya go. I would have sworn the GP bikes had a similar TC program to what is available off the shelf.

I always thought that box on the tail in front of the camera was the gyro for it too.

Learn something every day. My bad.

quote from this link :

"Things are a little different for Aprilia. The Noale factory already has world-class electronics, developed in part in World Superbikes. The switch to the unified software was a step back for Aprilia, also because their MotoGP effort is being run with such limited resources."

Now that's cool. Thanks for that. Interesting though, when Pedrosa was driving development the bike wasn't very good. I'm not surprised about Hayden though. He's happiest going sideways to the left so that tells you something about how he'll want a bike.

I think the point about Dani's setup is that to get that tiny extra advantage the bike has to be a bit more than 'user friendly'. That possibly reflects Dani's results, sometimes there, mostly not. Just my interpretation.

I hope that Dorna follow the Argie news. The country's biggest union is calling for a general strike on the Thursday prior to the GP.

A heated track would be so freaking cool warm though.

Mr Emmett did it well. He mentioned shifting the date of the race, resurfacing of the track, and installing heating while it was being surfaced.

The heating part was his April Fool effort, but apparently both the other things are under consideration.

Watched the highlights of round one yesterday. It was good. Go Rossi.

Is it me or has he got thinner? Looks older. Must be his last year.

Doubt very much you're seeing a CF disc rotor flex matey. More likely to be the heat shields they sometimes use to keep the heat in the rotor flexing.

I did wonder that...I spose him being a lite weight needing to keep heat in them.
Anyway it's a good corner the camera is on watching how different bikes behave.
