Whats the penalty? start at the back?
start from the back plus a 10 point deduction from the constructor's championship.

You know, ] I think the fixed engine alotment actually hurts the racing more than it helps on the financial side. If you enter the season with an uncompetitive engine, then what are you to do? For instance in the past, Honda swapped to the pneumatic in midseason to get a power boost, but under the new rules I don't see how this is really possible without killing your grid position. Unless I read it wrong, you better get your off-season updates right or you're in for a very long year.
seriously. Your advertising dollars not working at the back of the grid right? Unless you're getting lapped by the leaders. Maybe why poor Nicky stayed back. I could cry for the guy. Anyone catch any quotes at all from him since Phil island?

Standard Nicky; said it was a bad day, but that's in the past, looking forward to Thailand.
I recall one wag posting up on one of the sites that he's hoping Nicky doesn't land a sponsorhip from Target.

That was good indeed.
Casey had the hammer down, he wants 3rd place from McPintsize.

He was talking like 3rd was a joke thing to go after. Like it was "2nd looser" position.
I'm guessing he's out for some kicking of asses as much as posible. He did say he had 'nothing to loose.' Should be interesting for sure.
Rossi is saying the opposite, he has everything to loose.
I especially loved Mr. 5 (Edwards') comment. 'There's the Stoner - Rossi race, then there's the other race.'

no. that's not something the series does, it's something pedro has been doing the last couple years on his own... the numbers corresponding to his finishing position just happen to have been available

http://www.fim-live.com/fileadmin/alfresco/Codes_et_reglements/ROAD_RACING_GP_Eng.pdf
1.12 Starting Numbers
1.12.1 Each rider accepted for the Championship will be allocated a specific
starting number which will be valid for the whole Championship.
In
general
, the starting numbers will be based on the results of the team
riders in the previous year's Championship or in other similar events.
that "in general" is somewhat vague. historically, the racers took their championship position as their number for the next year. that has somewhat fallen out of vogue in the last decade, though some racers continue the practice.
the real question would be whether dovi would be forced to give up his number so pedro could run his finishing position.
