In the lead up to Assen a good read from david Emmett (seems to be available without subscription at the mo) https://motomatters.com/analysis/202...t_history.html
the first GP i went to was Assen - so-oo good and such fanatical fans ... amongst them a group of germans who were camping not far from our tent, one of them had a very very fresh caste on his leg and looked miserable as hell...how he rode his bike there god only knows but his mates had to lift him of it and more or less carry him around the place. his mates were partying hard and occasionally one would wander over and give a beer to the wounded one. i had a bit of a chat with him and he more or less said he wouldn't miss assen for anything .Full credit to him

Wow, what a great write up. Have saved that.
Thanks Jimmy.
Of course I was a bit concerned when he incorrectly spelt 'metre' and "labour'. Should we raise this?

Of course your concerns should be raised Dave ... noting the best way would be in person. Looks like 27 hrs and $3003 would do it, go for it...

I see our Jack is languishing more than ever... meanwhile Maverick (and Pecco) are smoking. Be sure to crank up your heaters guys and set the alarm for tonight.

Pramac have signed with Yamaha. I recently read a report that suggested reasons why team VR46 would be the obvious choice. Perhaps Rossi wants his riders to have a chance.

Yamaha must be offering Pramc huge incentives .Why would you turn away from the best bike on the grid?
Low personal B.M.E.P.
Seven year contract apparently. With change of regs and what the new owners have planned for MotoGP I suspect it offers some financial stability.
Is the current level of support from Ducati sustainable ?

A lot of Pramac's decision to go Yamaha according to this interview was to do with MM signing ahead of JM.
Reading between the lines it looks like they were quite pissed off.

Ducati still have Pecco, who is looking really good, happy and capable.
I hope MM is going to be worth it they have lost good riders and Pramac over that decision.
The fall out on the MM decision has been far reaching.
Practice and qually tonight live at 8:10 pm on 3 now

not quite the tooth n nail battle i was expecting ...hopefully tonights race will be typical Assen. Espargo's crash looked pretty unhealthy https://motorcyclesports.net/video-a...e-sprint-race/. a broken bone in his hand - so pretty light damage all things considered
Forum whore
Nope, more of the same.
Seems MM (at least, maybe more riders) had to follow others because their tire pressures were too low. MM is explainable as he only got 1 lap of data in the Sprint, but apparently MV might have had the same issue.

Haven't seen Assen racing as yet, I watch on ch3 a week late,(but thats enough for me!).
Surely these tyre pressure rules need to be sorted ? #93 said he had to wave on #49 I think he said, to tuck in behind and raise the temp ?? He was only low by a small amount but got the penalty anyway for that one lap it was low. That sounds frustrating ???
Have I got this right ???
