I suspect he's already got a contract, seeing as he didn't go along with the shenanigans.

Red Devil WSBK squad...on an Ape. I actually agree with what he did, although I'm still not a fan.

I was suprised that he did it in race#1.
I was even more suprised that Baz did it as well.

I should clarify...I agree with what he did in race 2. If his teammate can't beat him, then tough.

Maybe this thread should have a spoiler tag?

I wonder what the arrangement is on prize money and finishing position bonuses, points total bonuses, etc?
Because if that's not arranged prior, that a rider will be compensated for his loss, then the teams haven't much of a leg to stand on demanding a rider relinquish a position.
And it does damage a rider's credibility with his personal sponsors.
If I were a personal sponsor of a rider, I'd be furious with the team.
It'd be no better than if I walked onto the grid and punched my rider's teammate in the neck.
Race your teammate fair, and don't do something stupid and take him out.

Aprilia's done it before, and will likely do it again...if they get a rider close enough to a championship ever again.

As much suck as team orders are, I'm kinda glad Kawasaki played the same game to cut Aprilia's new advantage down a bit so it will hopefully come down to a more skillful matchup next race.

Haven't seen the races yet but now I want to more than ever. Just have to sit down with a beer & hit playback.

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori. Good people drink good beer. Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.
It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level. Everything else is just fluff.

I think.... Two things
1. Boobies
2. Depending on where or when in the season team orders come into play, how the rider reacts changes. If this were early in the season and Aprilla wants him to slow down... Sucks to be them if he doesn't. But last week with manufacturers title points at stake... I think he should have conceded to the request. Its not like everybody who saw the race thinks he didn't have it in him to win it, even his sponsors.

How were manufacturer points at stake? Aprilia still got a 1-2 finish.
