Pay for it? What do you mean? They've got more than a handful of testing dates left before Qatar to do race simulations in.

yeah I was just kidding around there. throwing out some bullshit.

anyway, for Spies pix, I'm waiting to see one of those trademark Sepang broadslides out of him. you know cuz the Yam was too much of a 250 and he is a superbike rider and all that.

Me too! But I like it. That's kinda his "brand" I guess and I am glad he retained it. The new RPHA 10s look pretty slick, both his and Lorenzo's. I just hope he can get some feel for the new platform and get some idea before the next test. By then the shoulder should be ready to push and they can really get to work on setup.
 
I wonder if Dovi will keep saying "this is normal" till the end of the season. :laughing
 
They just need to adapt the ducati to work with those brake calipers he bought last year.

Is anyone else a little disappointed by Iannone right now. I would expect him to be a little quicker and would like to see him catch on quick. In Moto2 he had that neat ability to really just pick up a bike and make it go like the clappers.

Well he's ahead of CRT and not far behind factory ducs, about all he could have hoped for



Marquez and Pedrosa just crashed, seperately

Edit: maybe just marquez, hes ok but the bike looks pretty mangled
