back in the doohan days, repsol honda had 3-4 bikes on the grid, and they were pretty much all near the front.

It was cheaper then to run more than 2 bikes.  Besides, in those days, wasn't the front of the grid always Hondas, Repsol or not?

Not that there was a whole lot of doubt, but Capi officially confirmed at Pramac.

I hope Elias keeps his motivation next year ( the whole season, not just the second half when looking for a contract ).  He's a solid rider when he wants to be.

he just won his first championship ever. He's never finished better than second in any series he's raced in before. I'm sure he liked the feeling and is gonna chase it again next year.

Speaking of championships.  Congrats to Jorge and on your stogies and booze.  If I can't head down your way soonish, I'll just get your address and ship it to yah.
