Yeah, Pedro has been a class act in every single incident these past couple of years.  I really want him to get that WC before he retires now.

And offhand... we're going to need to get a counter for where Dovi would be in the championship if he didnt keep on getting torpedoed every round.  These first couple of rounds are where the Duc's seem to shine the best and I dont think they'll be able to pull out the same level of results in Europe.

Oh, also, Pedro made a good point about the winglets... if he had them on his bike, Dovi might have been hurt pretty bad if it had made contact with his leg. I agree with him and I'm now on the boat where they should just take them out of the equation.

The winglets are specific to anti-wheelie and until someone gets impaled by one, they will continue to use them. There are too many what-ifs in that crash. A few inches closer, Pedrosa's bike would have completely destroyed Dovi's leg with or without the winglets.

new theory on valentino's accident, the text, in Italian, says something about either sabotage or giving valentino a structurally bad tire . ..

Or maybe he struggled with front end grip like everyone else and like many got caught out or made a mistake.
