...should be an interesting '09

...I can't wait to see them duke it out again. The single tire thingy should make things even more interesting!

Too bad Eurosport has ditched live MotoGP coverage. I guess I'll have to download races from now on.

Well friends

Don't forget that races (MotoGP) these days are rather a fuel economy compromise (+ a firmware "set-up") than a balls out stuff of the past. Therefor...erm...don't invest much on tests (but the Doctor should top the charts anyway...he's the ONE).

PS: One tire rule proves that Dorna knows about racing....well, nothing actually.

the difference between testing and racing is like the difference between fishing and catching.
