    They can be declared a factory team and subject to those rules if they get too close to the MotoGP team's lap times too often.

    Aprilia are essentially providing engines and electronics to five teams. The only "real" CRT team is the Suter BMW team Colin Edwards is racing for.

    The Aspar team will be the CRT team to watch IF De Puniet can stay on the bike and not break any bones.

    Crutchlow has been lookin' good and he likes the new bikes. As I understand the situation, Crutchlow or Dovizioso stand to lose the Tech 3 ride to Bradley Ginga at the end of the season - depending... If Crutchlow can upset the apple cart and take Spies ride, that complicates the issue slightly. Particularly for Spies.

    The aliens all come off contract this year, not sure about Spies. There might not be too many moves among the factory rides though.

    If Ducati can't get their Ducs in a row, what chance Rossi to WSBK?

    Romano Fenati. He most certainly looks the goods.

    De Puniet already crashed and big limp away. Hope he is OK as he is my man (so to speak! Now that's enough you lot).

    Loving the ART bike. Hope Paul Bird Racing get theirs sorted. Don't want Ellison so far away from the pack.

    Crutchlow looking choice too.

    The factory Ducati colour scheme looks great. A bit retro looking, choice!

    Luthi and Marquez looking great in Moto2. Riders backing them in heaps more this year it seems.

    Keep eye on Crazy Joe (Iannone).

    Smith will go nowhere, sadly.

    QMMF team as slow as wet weeks. Crystal Ball sees West saying "It's a piece of shit" pretty soon and being shown the door. Rosell will hurt herself trying to keep up. Moriwaki simply off the pace.

    And so say all of me.......

    More likely that Tech3 will develop a CRT bike and run 3 bikes in 2013. They seem to have a good line on funds as Moto2 testing has left no stone unturned by them this off season. Bradders has been riding non-stop.

    Pedrosa's been in the best funded team for how long? He's rewarded them for their expenditure with 15 wins. Time to head to World Super-Fat-Arse-Wobbly-Bikes methinks.

    Yeah, what a difference a year makes. Where would Honda be without Stoner?

    With Hayden in a respectable grid position Rossi (and his team) have been hugely embarassed. An unthinkable scenario and we will be looking for something improving tomorrow.......................
