Mexico has that new F1 track that could possibly lend itself to motoGP. Don't throw stones at me since I haven't seen the track yet.

Do you think Panoz would upgrade Road Atlanta to host the event?

Road Atlanta does not have the corners. They would practically need to build a whole new track.

Hopefully he'll get picked up by another team. He's a good rider.

Interesting take from Tony Goldsmith article, albeit with some hyperbole in the conclusion:
Quote
Once upon a time, the Honda was the fastest starting bike on the grid, but Honda’s thirst for horsepower completely ruined that
. Now the RC213V just wants to wheelie off the line, making it a very hard bike to handle at the start.
That tendency to wheelie is also why the Hondas are losing so much in the third sector. All of the Hondas are fast in the first, second and fourth sectors, but are losing two tenths or more in the third sector.
The reason is simple: out of the slow right-hand hairpin of Turn 10 (the riders call it Turn 8, disregarding the kink in the straight and putting the two right handers together for the hairpin) the Honda just wants to lift the front, finding no traction and losing grip.
They are losing ground to the Yamahas out of the slow corners, and to the Ducatis once they hit third, fourth, fifth and sixth.
It is hard to overstate just how very wrong Honda got the 2015 RC213V engine
.
So, you're saying that horsepower isn't the be-all-end-all?

I swear it said it was by Goldsmith when I read it. Either they made a mistake and corrected it, or I am getting too old too fast.

I watched for a couple of hours until the video froze.
Thanks for posting.
