Brembo Analytics Show Best Braker at Mugello GP

I wonder if the data is based on how late, how hard or how hot they got ?, its weird with some riders that they can hit the brake earlier and trail brake at higher speeds to beat the fella into the corner that brakes later and harder.

Dani Pedrosa - Fastest Man in MotoGP

Didn't quite crack 350km/h but 349km/h is damn fast!

Interested in MotoGP? Is that like saying "Enjoy breathing?"

The Ducati Puzzle:

Hayden said he's constantly being told to be more aggressive. " ‘You just got to be aggressive with this bike and do like Casey.' Around the lap, my throttle percentage wide open is more than him," Hayden said. "We come out of the corner and I get to wide open, not long before does, but a lot of places before him.

That shock pump he's complaining about may come from the fact the new carbon fibre frame may be too rigid. I was reading an article by Kevin Cameron about vibration damping in frames. I'll see if I can find a copy...

Interesting stuff Bill, better men than us don't seem to be able to fix it. It doesn't sound like getting on the gas is the problem, its after that ?
Rossi for a win at Catalunya lol ????? Gaz......

The shock pumping problem was with them last year with the steel frame as well.

Given up betting on a MotoGP podium now GAZ, lol. That is, the order on the podium - as it should be between 3 riders. Or Pedrosa may stuff that theory. Know he's injured but he's a tough little prick.

Whatever, it's gonna be good

Yea - Long and little vs Late and hard I guess. I cant believe just how much braking they can do even at such lean angles. Amazing tyre technology amongst other things I guess.

Well looks like its done something! Sixth in FP1, only have a sec off stoner.

But back to 13th in qualifying for the race...

He binned it with a few mins left in qualifying. Only 0.25s off 5th I think it was. I think it definately is an improvement but I don't think we will see him winning any races this year (or any to come in motogp). Wonder how he'd do in world sbk?

[discotex]

Holy shit Catalunya 2009 was the BEST RACE EVER!

I don't think I took a breath the whole last lap.

Whoever said the tyre rule was going to be bad for MotoGP should take a look at the championship standings now eh...
