Yeah, and dopey rules don't help. It wasn't that long ago there were three Repsol Hondas on the grid and Dovi was on one of them, now they can only field two.
As for the production Honda it is definitely doing what it was designed for, just being that bit better than the old CRT bikes. Hayden is sitting 8th on points so far on the "slow dog". Whereas he finished 9th last year, full season, on the factory Ducati.

Honda will give Bautista the arse this year - no more factory bike for him. And Bradl is close to being in the same situation. That could free up a couple of rides.
As for Horehay, his brain is gone. He's lost the plot. His general behaviour is not that of a world champion. I fear we are in for a long season of watching the Hondas do a horizon job on the rest, with the Yamahas and satellite teams scrapping over third.![]()
Yes merv, the handicapping system has closed things up,but we have to factor in 20,22,24ltrs and tyres.
For some reason I thought Smith and Esp were not factory but it seems they are.
Cota,Honda still a favorite,as well as having their freaky little 20 yr old.
Back to better racing next GP I hope. GO VALE!
You'd never go hungry with Nigella Gaz.
If it weren't for flashbacks...I'd have no memory at all..
There are some clever buggers about and some have been commenting on Jorge's brain explosion. I would normally use the expression brain fart but really that phrase just doesn't do it justice.
From memory:
The ITV highlites package starts in fifteen minutes. If you want to see Lorenzo start, tune in now.
The Argentinian GP is in two weeks. Lorenzo will start tomorrow.
That jump start was so big he almost jumped the Moto2 start as well.
And Colin Edwards on his retirement:

On a more serious note: Rossi's front tyre.

While it wasn't the most exciting race I still found it really interesting. The BTSport coverage was really good and having Spies in the commentary box was really good, although I wish they wouldn't go on about who is running which tyres so much.
Really impressed with smith, dovi and innonie. Shame about cruchlow breaking his hand and what happened with Alexis? After qualifying 5th I thought he would do alright but JL ended up nearly catching up, speaking of JL I really hope he sorts it put soon, he's screwing up my fantasy league
