MotoGP 2018

Where I think he'd fail is if he went to Yamaha or Suzuki, he's shown no real ability to adapt his riding style drastically since he joined Motogp

I think you're kidding yourself my friend. He adapts his riding style every time he rides a bike that has *issues*, and like Stoner, finds a way to ride around them.

Yeah, I think it has become obvious now that the Honda has been a handful. The pundits have discussed reasons for that, the current testing regime for one. Honda have presumably been busy on the electronics to tame the beast.

This might be another season where the situation changes from race to race accordng to the track and the tyres. Anyhoo less than two weeks now until kick off.

I know right! Bring it.

This is true, but he finds a way to adapt his style to make it out of shape and overload the front, rather than riding it smooth if it needs to be. Same reason they went to the hard carcus last year, he was overloading it, instead of going easy on it they changed it to suit for "safety". Tin foil hat at the ready .

In short, I'm not sure if he got on the Yamaha if he could ride the bike like Lorenzo, he'd have to find a way to make the bike ride like Marquez. Bend it to his will rather he bending to its. Hopefully we get a chance to find out at some stage though as it'd suck for him to stay on the Honda too long.

2 weeks, OH YEAH!

Well, he's won titles on 125 two strokes, 600cc four strokes, and moto gp bikes. So yeah, I think he can adapt.

Well lets hope we get a chance to find out one day. MM to Yamaha 2023. They'll all be hover bikes by then anyways

Kawasaki to come back and offer him money he can't refuse!!!

[WALRUS]

Or any "new" manufacturer. I think the year 2000 had 8 or 9 different manufacturers, or maybe it was 2001.. Patons, Protons, Modenas, Aprillias, Hondas, Yamahas, Suzukis, TSRs, BSLs, Pulses, Sabres.. Bring back fields like that :P

That's a headbanger bike if there ever was one. Only got to see the last of it when I started watching Motogp with Melandri on the black one, he did well considering how shit it was.

Concur. That's the main reason I've kinda become a fan. He used to be bin or win but has developed to the point of falling off without binning and racking up points. A pretty epic trick.
A cool, calculated, hombre IMHO.

As for new bikes on the grid.......




BMW. It's gotta happen.

Everybody is looking really skinny... except for Iannone who in his own inimitable style has chosen to plough a different furrow and see if extra helpings of pasta can improve his race pace. Suzuki are no doubt wondering WTF? Again.

I was a fan day dot, remember when was showing the 125 boys how its done. Then I stopped being a fan when he ran cunts off the road in Moto2 (dangerous shit) and subsequently in Motogp in his rookie year (understandable). Became a fan again in 2016 when he completed his transformation into the most dominant rider in motogp.
Can't cheer him on in races as a DP fanboi, but got love for his ability to push the limits and find some more over the edge.

Wonder if Dani managed to find 5 or so extra kgs and some more height. Iannone is too busy partying and fucking gorgeous Italian women to lose weight.

[Dadpole]

Iannone will go better now he has a rival in Rins. AI has always had the raw talent to be a top shelf rider and only needs his head fixing.

Was talking to Radar Cullen on Friday about the Hyate Kawasaki. His view was that it was actually quite a good bike. He knows a few things....

Never heard that name before I'm afraid. Fill me in on him please wise one

Never saw that bike when it was a proper factory effort just when it was Marco on his own and he chucked it on the podium in the wet before buggering off the wsbk.
