    They seem to be caught between two devils not enough horsepower and blowing up.
    To increase the horsepower you increase the risk.
    Although the Ducati has the most HP and been pretty damn solid.
    On a Motorcycle you're penetrating distance, right along with the machine!! In a car you're just a spectator, the windshields like a TV!!

    Through a series of misadventures Yamaha were short of engines. The commentators had discussed which track would best suit a pit lane start, the penalty for using an extra engine. That had seemed a real possibility. Some of their engines had done double the ks they were supposed to do. At that stage everybody would be getting nervous.

    I was reading one of the pundits the other day saying that this season it was the inline fours getting the power to the ground, the v fours were suffering. This was attributed to the Michelin tyres in use this season.
