The rough rule of thumb is that 1kg = 1HP Prob more in MotoGP.
So our Danni had an advantage.
Tyres
The riders don't know where they are in the pack so the tyre pressures are a toss up.
Miller
But even if you know that you [might] go in front, you prepare for being behind and try to get the lowest [pressure] possible. Because when you are behind, the tyre is going up a lot.”
Aleix
“It’s a very difficult thing for the teams and also for Michelin because as Pecco and Fabio said, how do you know if you are going to be following 3 bikes or will have a free track?
They didn't have this as a major Issue a couple of years ago so they need to go backwards and eliminate what is causing it. Prob the aero.
They get into the slipstream to get a tow and that puts them into the heat vortex. They need to eliminate this or use a tyre that can handle it or both.
Being forced to race a second behind the rider in front is not racing. They need to fix this.
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!!
'Life's Journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out! Shouting, ' Holy sh!t... What a Ride!! '
