i think the hondas are going to give lorenzo fits and that ben will be there to pick up the pieces.  a lot can happen in 20+ laps.

I agree with this, and I think we'll see Lorenzo go back to his crashing ways due to having to push the bike beyond its limits to keep up.

i just have this sense that jorge is starting mentally behind the eight ball this year.

Lin Jarvis doesn't know what to make of The Ben.

I guarantee that interview--despite his kind words about Vale--isn't going to sit well with the Doctor.

@DennisNoyes: CLUTCHGATE!  A guess: Honda and Xtrac worked together in Indy racing. The Xtrac IGS system works like double clutch, but  technically legal.

fwiw, the Indy cars don't use IGS.  but i think he was just drawing a line from Honda to Xtrac, then noting that Xtrac has IGS.. not necessarily that the Indy cars use that particular Xtrac product.  you can only say so much while twatting.
