the only "other" reason I could find for a rev limit could be potentially for some level of noise control ?!?!?!

I have little problem with a rev limit really...it seems to work in F1. It has to be beyond the realm of everyday street bikes though.

'...the guys doing the TV shouldn't be making the rules...'

Priceless.....this current arrangement will be the death of MotoGP, and it sounds like he's ready to retire.  When the only constant in an uber-expensive sport is the tracks where the races are held then nothing has any meaning, including the value of the championships.

Has it all become a reality show within a reality show, with the only incentive being maximizing advertising dollars (i.e., greed)?

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

Desperate to run at the front, and running out of options with the season opener rapidly approaching, Ducati is exploring its final option . . . writing a check to lease Honda MotoGP bikes for both Rossi and Hayden.....

It's a pretty weak prank. they should have used a random Italian name as a source and quoted that source using some bad english.
