    Yonny Hernandez to Tech 3.

    Can't say I ever saw much of him in a race that I recall...

    Nobu Aoki 'surprised' at how quickly MD adapted to the MotoGP bike. No times though. Also they weren't running GP Michie slicks as they're allocated for the season.

    Doubt he'd cut it in GP, but he's certainly got a ton of talent.
    Do us all a favour, by bringing yourself up to speed, before pulling onto the motorway.

    Yeah, I think the road racers focus their ability on finding the limits of the road and MotoGP riders have to find the limits of their bikes. Obviously a big overlap in the middle.

    Just my musings on it.

    I got it from a tweet posted by David Emmett. It is a private test so there are no official public results. There is, however, a little more here: https://motomatters.com/news/2018/01...te_stoner.html

    Visits to Crash.net and GPOne would be in order.

    Presumably the factory testing in a day or so will be less Secret Squirrel.

    MotoGP have announced their new commentary team. The announcement was made by @CommentarySteve who I assume is Steve English, who is Irish, he was on the team last year. Also on the team, and also Irish, is Neil Morrison. Thankfully the third member of the team hasn't got an accent, it's Simon Crafar.

    As long as Steve English doesn't bring that Aussie Harry with him from Superbike....

    Will this also mean that Harry boy is the head commentator in WSBK? If so, I may have to get the Russian coverage.

    Yeah, looking forward to hearing Simon. He's actually a fucking funny guy.

    I described him as sounding like a Gay hairdresser which was a bit unkind I suppose ?
    Won't be long for us armchair experts, till everything kicks off again,can't wait !

    At least Nick Harris is gone !

    ps Dadpole,listen for the "Dulset" tones of the K6 early tomorro

    You'd never go hungry with Nigella Gaz.
    If it weren't for flashbacks...I'd have no memory at all..

    Call in anytime. We are at the old Makomako School. 200 meters before the Masterton turnoff coming from Palmy. Otherwise I shall wave to all sportbikes - sometimes with all fingers...

    Neil morrison is the third member of the sometimes 4 member moto matters podcast.David Emmet,Steve English,Neil Morrison and an American photraghper guy who cant quite remember the name of at the moment.Neil Morrison has a very deep voice and quite softly spoken.Will be a challenge for the sound engineers,esp at the circuits where the commentary spot is close to the circuit with poor sound insulation.
    Sho;d be quite a knowledgeable trio though.I think Neil Morrison is a regular contributor to crash net?

    A spot of bother on the way to work. Anyone know a mechanic?

    will when I can find it Dad. Perhaps if i slowed down a little I'd have time to spot ya Digs.
    Was chatting to a fella I see, in town Sunday. Think he said he'd been to your place (he's a Sparky and fixes shit ) ????

    I got totally pissed off at how much coverage he got for leaving and virtually nothing was said about Dylan Gray. I was much more interested in what Dylan was doing.

    Movistar Yamaha duo take to the top, with Jack Miller for close company

    Viñales and Rossi reign on Day 2 at Sepang - Australian Motorcycle News
    Maverick Viñales (Movistar Yamaha MotoGP) went quickest on Day 2 at Sepang International Circuit, just beating teammate Valentino Rossi to the top late on as…

    Not so much about who's fastest at this stage but more about how many are close,within a second!
    Miller seems to like the Ducati .
