Uuhuh. This is doocatti with access to data for Africa.
I think there will be questions behind close pit walls.

No doubt there will.

Apparently the ambient temp dropped 3 deg from morning to afternoon, and the track temp dropped from 56 to 50. That would, they say. have caused MM to do what he did.
It's more the race craft of the guy to be able to watch these things and work out what he needs to do while riding at half a sec faster than everyone else.

Funny if the same thing happened to Alex and the brothers played a game of "No, after you" all race.

hehe.. apparently some Ducati staff were concerned that MM was riding too close to his brother, and might take him out.Originally Posted by F5 Dave
They get to choose their own tire pressures depending on how they want to manage it, I guess. Maybe Pecco chose too high a pressure.
Dunno if you guys have heard this but the Triumphs in M2 have this pin/cable set up now - neutral is at the bottom, and the pin stops the riders from being able to select neutral without releasing it. It prevents a few deg of movement. SO they can not select neutral while moving.

If the rules werent changing I'd assume this was to try and give the none ducati's a chance - changing grip levels etc. Maybe it's just time for a change?

They should really change the other classes so no one ring, er tyre rules them all.

The other classes already use Pirelli.
Apparently Michelin only wanted to to MotoGP and MotoE

The thing I wonder with michelin, why was it taking so long to develop tyres? I well remember them being able to whip up special tyres for Rossi literally overnight and have them delivered by the race the next day. Now they say things like, the new front will not be released until next year as it is not ready yet. Huh? Has tyre tech vastly changed since those Rossi hey days??????

Yes that was my point Dorna (liberty?) Are now beholden to one Italian tyre company. Thats a bigger risk for several scenarios, expense jacking being just one.
Time for IRC or CST (cheng shin) to step up to the plate. That'll slow them down a touch while making them interesting to watch.

Looks like Ch3 will have Motogp highlights on Sunday sports again this season.
A week after the event but that doesn't bother me.
First GP tomoro ,I'll copy it as usual.
Good coverage of the NZ Open Squash on Sky at the mo if you like that stuff?
You'd never go hungry with Nigella Gaz.
If it weren't for flashbacks...I'd have no memory at all..

TV3 on demand has the racing live then also available afterwards to view. You just need to create a free log-in.Looks like Ch3 will have Motogp highlights on Sunday sports again this season.

i watched last weekend live on 3 now and was quickly reminded of how hard it was to listen to those commentators. i'm tempted to buy a video pass to get away from them... real tempted. with a couple kiwi girls in the WCR , a superbike videopass is likely unless the next race or 2 show we have a Ducuti series.
first world problem yes, but we've been spoilt by the racing of years gone by
