Oh dear.

[duccarlos]

Well, both Jorghey and Dovi were on 2016 bikes. i presume they'll start testing new parts in Sepang, then based on those, break out the new bike at PI or just wait for Qatar. Any way you look at it, Stoner is still batshit fast.

[kopfjäger]

[kopfjäger]

They're getting after it.   Well Jorge is anyway, he's running alone.

[kopfjäger]

Everyone's got sand in their pussy. Jorge is back out again.

[kopfjäger]

This show that they're running right now is excellent. Lot of great former racers.  

They just said that was part 1 of 4.

[kopfjäger]

Its drying off, so starting to get more riders on the track. 3:40

Finally MM found something. I'm sure VR is regretting forcing Jorghey out. Viñales on an M1 is a scary thought.

Finally MM found something. I'm sure VR is regretting forcing Jorghey out. Viñales on an M1 is a scary thought.

How do you figure Rossi forced him out?

[duccarlos]

It was a given since he returned that Yamaha's focus would always be Rossi. In that sense, he forced Jorghey's ginormous ego out the door.
