Re: MotoGP 2013 Season - Updates

No one's saying much about why Lorenzo turned back to take a hard look at MM behind him. Why did he do that? I find it quite intriguing.

I wonder if Marc is really that fast as the writer says. Upto 10th by 1st turn, 6th by 1st lap. I know he's done it at Valencia last year in Moto2. But this is MotoGP. Faster and better guys are there on the grid. Im sure he's capable of winning it, but as easily as the writer says? I don't think so.

Writers always add something more to their articles. Makes it more interesting for the readers. It might look a bit impossible but, if there's anyone who 'd pull it off, it's Marquez. No one else.

Even if, he finishes 2nd behind Lorenzo, Lorenzo himself 'll have to sweep his jaws off the floor. And only God knows how Pedrosa and Rossi 'd take it deep down.

Well, it's quite clear why I am not getting proper results even after performing so many experiments in the lab. Clear lack of focus.

I thought you...Oh S**t, so Dani's out..?

now who's going to stop you..?

Dorna's Javier Alonso has admitted the chances of reaching a mutual agreement over the Aragon MotoGP incident involving Repsol Honda's Marc Marquez and Dani Pedrosa will be 'almost impossible'.

Sideways glance -

with Jorge Dancing, I wonder was that before or after the race

And somebody please notice the small LED lights on Stephan Bradl's shoulder on the leathers and let me know what that's all about?

Re: MotoGP 2013 Season - Updates

As Marquez explained later, he had to release the brakes and this put him on a collision course with Pedrosa. Because the turn was a left-hander, Marquez.

Nice find @incipient Wish they all play that game. Dani: there is no limit. If you can ride faster than Marc and be the first one to cross the finish line in one piece every weekend, then your the next world champ.

Btw, the look of it is very stupid. The way the sensor cable is actually set up. It's like an invite - "come and cut me in 2"

For this I stick to my verdict - "It's Honda's fault"

**incipient** · 10-03-2013, 01:29 AM

Re: MotoGP 2013 Season - Updates

I agree, something that important ought to have been routed more discreetly, especially since there was no sensor backup/failover.

Wouldnt be that easy, but it isnt impossible too, I think... CRT and Ducatis before the first part of the track, eventually the rest.
His laptimes are pretty scary too,.
Plus the only riders matching Marquez's pace are pedrosa and Lorenzo, even Rossi at 4th place was a almost a second down. So podium finish a posibility. Its like watching Vettel all over

On the other hand he'd have so many bikes to ram on from behind

.., so many sensors.

All CRTs by turn 1, all ducatis by lap 1, easy

(I know that only makes for 8th position, but still

)

I'm fully convinced that Marquez is capable of even winning from dead last on PI. No one on the current grid can ride sideways like he does and PI is a track which (in stoner's words) requires the rider to slide around to get the best laptime.

Ducati should now start including this clause in their contracts:

1) When you fail to bring success to the project, we will do anything and everything to ruin your career in motor sports.

SBK Ultimatum to Spies: 3 days for SBK

Apparently, he's been given time till Sunday to decide on whether he want's to ride a "Produciton Racer" in MotoGP next year or a Panigale in WSBK. So a prototype is out of question already. Either ways they have giving him the option to worsen his career since the Panigale itself is not doing so good in WSBK. Kawasaki, BMW and Aprilias are kicking a** and sometimes even the Honda's and Suzukis tend to play with the front guys. But Panigale most of the time I've seen them falling (That's "most of the time" when I watched

)

Source: SBK, Ultimatum a Spies: 3 giorni per la SBK

Nicky never steps back to comment:
“Unfortunately we are getting farther away. With the lab bike that we started testing after Jerez, they thought it was going to be a lot better and at that time it was no better. They have worked a lot and tested a lot and never really did a step. If you are not fixing problems you need to understand what is going on, so it is true that they maybe need to look at it and see why if it is a matter of personnel or mistakes. There is a lot of good engineers and people there, so that is not the only problem but at the moment I'd say they do need to look at all areas to see why the gap this year is not getting closer."

http://www.motorcyclenews.com/MCN/sp...urther-behind/

Honestly, I think they've lost it completely. Unless the rule change in their favor I don't think they can bounce back. Engineers at Ducati simple don't know who to make things to fix the issues reported by riders. Riders are not that bad at all. With new/fresh talent not being able to get upto speed, it's clearly the machine's fault. From Stoner's time, I guess it far more worse than what he used to ride. With all new parts and no improvement at all, I think they should call it a day.

Wishing for BMW, Suzuki and Aprilia to start factory bikes team to compete with Yamaha and Honda

11 months ago, he was riding the championship winning, factory Yamaha M1 and now, he doesn't even have a satellite ride. Pity.
