    I hope that it wouldn't be a boring Moto2 season like the last one.

    Well, CWM LCR Honda bikes have too much white (pearl white?). I loved Bradl's regular livery - Red/Green.

    LCR Honda is known to make the best looking bikes in the paddock. Not this time around, I felt.

        Yamaha likely to introduce full seamless gearbox in Sepang test next week.




        Btw, anyone has an idea if we can get entry to watch the test at Sepang? Didn't see any ticket sale on their website.

            Sepang II Tests are underway. Timing currently have Rossi on top.

            Yamaha does not deny or claim to have brought a full seamless transmission, but says that they have brought an evolved version of the seamless gearbox.

            Ducati GP 15 parked next to the GP 14.3 brings out the visual differences between the two bikes. Both the Andreas have one each of the GP 15 and GP 14.3.

              Nice to see doctor on top. At least the Yamaha is fast from the word go. Honda might be the one posting the fastest laps, but as Jorge said - one lap doesn't win you the race. Hopefully the Doctor can stay the fastest through out the 3 days. Yamahas seem to be enjoying the seamless gearbox, but they say it's a good add one but doesn't quite equalize the playing field with Honda. How can they ever equalize till Honda has Marc.
              I'm really happy to see Suzuki up in top 5. Hopefully they are consistently there.

              Dovi says Ducati has solved the turning problem, their lap times are still not impressive compared to others. Am I missing a point here?

              Crutchlow seems to have sound something. He's just behind Marc in 7th spot. I'm not worri3es about Marc, he always tends to find a solution for his problems. This time the problem is - the front brake.

                Markey Marc returns to the top, but just about. Ducatis seem to be going fast. While Suzuki appears to require some more work. Timings for yesterday -

                ----consecutive posts auto-merged-----

                Currently third day morning, everybody is out on a mock qualifying session. Trying to set a single fast lap when the temperatures are still relatively cool. The races this season might get even more interesting if the Ducatis and Suzukis can mix it up a bit, at least in the first half of the race. Cause some confusion and chaos among the fast four.

                  Yeah! It is getting interesting out there, lets see who gets the second spot cause we all know who would be first!!!

                  What is happening to Melandri? He is sure a better rider than bautista but he is no where near him and to make matters worse he is not participating today, has he given up already? For a guy who was challenging the likes of Rossi once upon a time it is sad to see him struggle.

                  Really happy the way Suzuki is progressing, hope that they are race worthy as well! Would love to see them challenging the top four on a regular basis.

                  And yeah here is our man Cal who looks like he is going to be in the thick of things right from the word go!

                    Those ducati are getting really fast. They have certainly caught attention of the top riders. Rossi feels they can stick with the front guys. They would surely have an advantage with super soft tyres at their disposal. Suzuki is showing good progress. Aleix is one rider who I want to see fighting at the top with an open class bike.

                      Yes, the new Ducati is very promising and I hope they have to give up all those Open benefits as soon as possible (that would mean winning 3 GPs if I remember well!). Their declared objective is 1 win this year. We'll see, Iannone really wants to take the fight to Marquez again, as he did in Moto2. He wants it real bad and my money is on him for a first Ducati win, should that happen. But they have quite some work to do still, and even with a truly competitive bike beating MM93 is going to be very hard. Marc, more than the Honda, is the real obstacle for any rider who wants to win nowadays.

                        He didn't ride because on his first out lap on the very first corner his bike gave up due to mechanical problems. Marshalls had to help him out with a fire extinguisher When luck is not going your way, then it surely is not!
