This has always been the case with Jorghey at the first sign of anything not going perfect, he folds like a cheap rug. If i were him, i would be looking over my shoulder at Petrux.

Nope I'm not a betting man, but I hope you're wrong about the fence.

Jorge certainly needs the bike within a certain zone to go flat out. Each rider has a comfort zone.

I hope he can adjust his mentality to be more flexible. That's what I made of his comments in that interview. Part of the problem is his preferred style, part is the bike. I thought he made both clear.

I have enough respect for him to allow him a season to adjust. Clearly you guys don't.

Heck even if he doesn't, he's still a multiple world champ. To me that's not rational to easily dismiss.

In any case, he's on a Ducati, so I'll cheer for him.

Point taken about looking over his shoulder. Lots of other riders in the Ducati stable are hungry and surging. Maybe that's the 'push' JL needs to expedite change.

Another great race for Dovi! His confidence must be soaring.

After a drop off from Jorge, he did well to come back.

Article today has Miller staying at Marc Vds as his priority or has an offer from Ducati/Aprillia. I think Pramac would suit him.

Although comments about being dicked with upgrades make a Honda deal seem less likely.

Well Honda has the factory and LCR. They surely won't give Jackass factory support as well.

He might do better on a Pramac bike.

With him having a Hrc contract i thought he may get regular updates. Crusty now having hrc direct contract means no Jackass Hrc for 2018. So pramac may depend on what bike he was offered. Monkey will get dibs the way he is riding
