    So didn't predict that I must say!

    Nice work by Dovi. I knew when he was shadowing Dani that he had heaps more in the tank, he hit the rocket switch on the Ducati and she was all over. That Ducati is one hell of a good bike.

    Poor old AE, I think he had a shot at a top 3 but she went boom.

    With Dovi only 7 points behind World Championship it's going to be fun everyone chasing for the title!


    If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.

    Quote Vinales after Catalunya :

    While Viñales made no specific mention of the tyres, a swift reading between the lines when saying “the problem is not the bike” would show where the 22-year old was directing his blame.

    “I don't know what to say. I tell everyday the same, so I don't know. Our bike is good. That's what I can say. It was good in Qatar, Argentina it was good. All the races, our chassis, it's not this. The problem is not the bike.

    Maybe Michelin will pull finger and make changes for Assen ?

    You'd never go hungry with Nigella Gaz.
    If it weren't for flashbacks...I'd have no memory at all..

    Yeah. Just when it looked like he could do no wrong. Made the championship more interesting anyway. I'd actually love to see Dovi win it. He had such a nasty run of terrible luck last year too.

    He's a real grafter, and was a bloody good sport last year even when getting cleaned out so many times!

    I'm not totally convinced that it's tyres he's tallking about. The riders were talking about not going back to Catalunya until the problems with the track have been sorted.

    All of which makes me wonder why they are bothering testing there today. Nothing much that they learn there will be relevant anywhere else?

    Dear Maverick

    Look up. See that yellow thing up high that makes your eyes hurt? Thats called the sun. When there is no clouds in the sky and the sun is up there it does magic juju which makes your Yamaha do skids. It sprinkles magic skid dust all over the track which makes you very skow n the other riders do better than you. Stop blaming Michelin, they will sue your ass if you keep making comnents to the media.

    Whether he's blaming the track or the tyres is irrelevant really, the Tech3 boys did better.

    Cheers

    They did, and there's no taking away from that. Except didn't one of themthose crash?

    They're on last years bikes though.
