    I bet they are all accurate but a std calibrated item will stop the arguments.

    MotoGP’s minimum pressures are 1.9 bar (27.55psi) for front slicks and 1.7 bar (24.65psi) for rears. At the moment teams can use any brand of TPMS (tyre pressure monitoring systems) they like, so it’s impossible to accurately compare data from these different sensors, which is why the rules aren’t really rules.

    Weather looks dodgy tomorrow but good for sat/sun at phillip island. Be good to see Jack win this one... hopefully his bike will be 100% even though Ducati management will be "quietly" hoping he places behind Pecco. So many exciting scenarios ... roll on sunday

    Well call me a conspiracy theorist, but I feel there will be a fairly high chance Jacks bike will not be at the highest possible level for this race.

    It's an Italian team. Of COURSE they'll fuck Jack over. I bet you Enea will romp past Jack on the straight like Jack is riding a Yamaha, let alone the Black Magic Fuckery that will be done to Pecco's bike. Vinales will go well this weekend - and then suck for the rest of the year.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Jack has said a few things in the last week - it seems like not that much love lost there atm.

    Phillip FUCKING Island boys.

    Been wayyy too long, though its current Phillip Lake. Hopefully we get a dry race with some massive battles, I have a feeling this ones gunna be epic.

    I'll be racing at Hampton when its on though, hopefully have enough energy to watch it when I get home.

    Crafer did a tech talk on the Black magic fuckery, otherwise known as engineering, which could explain how they utilise their engine life budget, and on which tracks. Perhaps Philip Island isn't one of those, but will depend on how much peak engine life they have left.

    Still predicting FQ to get back on the fast line.

    Race may be held on jet skis.

    So if (when) he falls off, we should look for a Ducati guy on a grassy knoll?
    The best way to forget all your troubles is to wear tight underpants.

    Was somewhat concerned about the weather for the GP. The situation is rather more grim than I anticipated, there is wide spread flooding, there has been at least one death in Victoria, there have been evacuations, the defence forces have been called in to help. MotoGP suddenly doesn't seem quite so important.

    The good news is that the rain has eased in Tasmania and southern Victoria. Here's hoping.
