Dovi did a 16 lap run at the end of yesterday's testing, at a better pace than what MM won the race at last year.

That was on the GP14.3 as well.

They'll have the GP15 for testing 23-25 Feb

Hopefully it's as good.

They both sounded pretty positive.

Have they thrown a leg over the 15?

From what I read, just gathering information that will be tapped into the 15. (?)

I've not seen anything where they've admitted to it.
Hopefully Iannone's sat on it, they've got some of the biggest boys in the paddock on their bikes.

It's encouraging that he could string that together, granted it's not 400 degF inn the shade like at the race last year.
Still, a good pace, and most importantly, consistent, not smoking the tire off in ten laps.

If the 14.3 is indeed a step from the 14.2 toward the 15, that's definitely good news.

I guess what I'm getting at is we don't know how different the 15 is.

It could very well be so totally different this test has no bearing...regardless of the hype...

or it could be pretty similar.

Time will tell.

The good news is, that even if the 15 is a steaming POS, the 14.3 seems to be much better than the 14.2.

I refuse to hope. They have destroyed all hope the past few years.

Certainly hope the GP15 is a progression, and not so different that it takes all season to develop....
But different enough that they can make it work.....
